Baboon.ro is the online presence of Romanian company SC Baboon Software SRL, which was founded in January 2016 and has since accumulated more than 200 customers. It offers the services you need for creating and managing websites and online stores: web hosting, domain solutions, online promotion, maintenance, and SEO.
Baboon’s website is available in Romanian and English.
Features and Ease of Use
Baboon offers four shared hosting plans and one dedicated server (which is mentioned three times), but the website’s VPS page displays no plans.
The shared hosting plans provide you with these features:
- 3 GB to 20 GB SSD storage
- 6 GB to 12 GB burstable RAM
- 3 GB to 6 GB guaranteed RAM
- 8 CPU core @ 2.1 GHz
- Unlimited monthly traffic
- cPanel control panel
- Webmail with SpamExperts
- Dedicated IP address
- Daily file and database backups via Jet Backup
You get a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate and the SpamExperts email filtering solution.
Burstable memory allows you to temporarily add RAM when needed, and website speed optimization aids in improving your users’ experience and potentially boosting your search engine standing. The GTmetrix speed audit enables you to assess your website’s performance and make necessary adjustments if required.
Baboon’s additional services — website design and development, online promotion, graphic design, copywriting, website maintenance, and SEO services — mean Baboon could become your one-stop web shop.
Pricing and Support
Baboon’s shared hosting plans are pricey. You can pay for them in euros on monthly to annual terms by bank transfer, PayPal, or credit card, with 20% savings for annual signups. It’s also good that the 30-day money-back guarantee should get you out early if anything goes wrong.
Contact this company by telephone (during working hours on weekdays), online contact form (which has too many steps), email (as detailed on its Facebook page), or Facebook Messenger. I got answers to my pre-sales questions through Messenger:
Self-support resources include a blog which hasn’t been updated since September 2018.
