Pros and cons
Pros
- One provider covers shared hosting (cPanel), shared hosting (DirectAdmin) and VPS
- VPS fees run ETB 2,100 to ETB 67,200, keeping the entry point low
- Hosting plans include free ssl, backups and email as standard
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, including phone
Cons
- There is no free plan, so every account starts on a paid tier
- Plan website limits are 10-50 websites per plan, so wider portfolios would need VPS
- Data centres sit in United States, Germany and United Kingdom, so distance decides speed for far-off visitors
Who it suits
- Small businesses in Ethiopia that want hosting, domains and email on one account
- Beginners who need a site live quickly, with 200 builder templates
- Sites that outgrow shared hosting and move to the VPS range ETB 2,100 to ETB 67,200
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers who want a no-cost entry point, since Render's entry plan is $0
- Buyers in southern Africa, where Afrihost quotes ZAR 84 for shared hosting
- Readers who prefer a South American provider, since Hosting.cl lists shared hosting at CLP 159,900
Who runs it
Ashewa Cloud is run by Ashewa Technology Solutions SC, registered in Ethiopia. That local base matters for readers who want a provider with a local legal identity rather than an overseas reseller. Support runs through email, chat and phone, mixing self-service with live agents, and the same company answers for domains, email and certificates.

Frequently asked questions
What does Ashewa Cloud sell?+
The catalogue covers shared hosting (cPanel), shared hosting (DirectAdmin) and VPS. Shared hosting comes in cPanel and DirectAdmin flavours, with VPS and a website builder for larger projects. Domain registration, SSL certificates and email hosting are sold on the same account, so most needs stay with one provider.
How much do the VPS plans cost?+
VPS fees run ETB 2,100 to ETB 67,200 across the plans listed, so the entry point sits at the low end of the range. Stepping up within VPS adds capacity on the same product rather than a new service, which suits sites that outgrow shared hosting.
Is there a free plan?+
Free plan is no, so there is no no-cost tier to try. Ashewa Cloud is listed under a free plan approach, which means entry starts on a paid plan. Roughly 69.5% of the web hosting brands in this group also charge from the first invoice.
What support can I get?+
Support channels cover email, chat and phone, so routine questions can go through the help centre or email, with chat and phone for anything urgent. A help centre is the most common channel in this group at 86.2%, and Ashewa Cloud carries that option too.
Where are the servers located?+
Data centres sit in United States, Germany and United Kingdom. That spread covers North American and European visitors well, and Ethiopia-based buyers get a provider based in their own country, since the company is registered in Ethiopia. Sites aiming at another region should check which location fits.
How many sites can one plan run?+
Plan limits allow 10-50 websites per plan. That covers a main site plus a handful of campaign or client pages, but a wider portfolio will need VPS rather than shared hosting. Templates for the builder number 200, so extra pages do not start from scratch.
Can I buy domains and email here too?+
Yes, alongside hosting there is domain registration across from 200, email hosting and SSL certificates. The website builder offers 200 templates and covers site, store and landing projects, so a small business can register a name, build a site and set up mail on one account.
What uptime is promised?+
The published guarantee is 99.9% uptime, which sits alongside backups and free SSL in free ssl, backups and email on the hosting plans. Money-back cover across this group runs to 30, so confirm the window on the order before committing.
