Absolutely the worst service

Absolutely the worst service. After purchasing a Remote Digital Signature on April 16, as of today it has not been provided. However, I have been made to go through the webcam recognition process 3 times, twice by the same operator. No coordination, no action, just a total shambles.

And despite many requests via their 'service' portal still nothing, and just now I have been waiting on hold for over 15 minutes. Don't waste your time or money with these fools.

Completely useless service and waste of people time

This is a useless service. The Italian consulate emailed me the CF attribution document electronically. Since it is impossible to upload a PDF document on the SPID Arbuba portal, I took a screenshot of the original digital document sent by the Embassy and uploaded it into the ARUBA system. During the verification, the operator said that he could not recognize a digital document and that I should have shown a printed one. I explained that the Italian Embassy sent me a digital document, not a printed one. A total waste of time, I have been requested to print the document manually and show it on the computer screen. This is beyond any rational understanding of a service meant to be provided digitally.

Worst hosting provider which i meet in my life.
I have 11 servers on they hosting very big project and every month spend lot of money. Their politics is if you run out of credit they will shutdown your server in time of 7 days. I got email from them that my credit low and for 1 hour they kill my main server and couse me damage of 120 thousand dollars. They writing is arogant, they have no care for customers and i planning to get them on court. This happens already 3 times so far.People need to know to not buy servers from them becouse they starting to acting like blackmailers, they servers are expensive and support is zero. Invoices are shaddy, especially at the end of year so i cannot provide their invoice my bookkeeper.Invoice usuale late up to 2 months and all time i have problems with that. I regret day when i start bussiness with them

Ok, go

It's just horrible, I bought a domain name at ~12:00, waited an hour, then "Waiting for registration result", what are they waiting for, it's not clear, more than 10 hours have passed, I still haven't received any emails, why did Google Domains register in 5 minutes? I wanted to initially write a ticket, but I couldn't log in to support, it said either that you are already logged in somewhere or says "It was not possible to log in Please, try again", I hope to solve the problem.
Updated 06.03.2024
It's been 23 hours and hurrah the domain is with me, the control panel is not convenient and quite long and not very obvious(subjective opinion),advantages price and quick response to feedback, in the support panel I could not get into the support panel.

Dear customer,
in general terms, we inform you that the process of registering a domain with Aruba.it is divided into three fundamental phases. For a detailed guide on each step, we kindly invite you to visit the following link: https://guide.hosting.aruba.it/registrazione-domini/registrare-un-dominio/ordine-registrazione-attivazione-dominio-aruba.aspx.
Upon review, we found that the registration of your domain was not completed successfully due to the entry of a 4-digit postal code, while in Germany postal codes consist of 5 digits. This had led the Authority to suspend the registration until we manually corrected the code, thus allowing the activation to begin.
Despite various attempts to contact you to inform and resolve the issue, we were unable to reach you. Do not hesitate to contact us through this channel if you need assistance or clarification,
best regards.

ASnother administrative waste of time

As if Italian administration is not complicated enough you have added requirements for digital seciurity that waste time and money. Just trying to renew my digital signature this morning. No easy matter as I have changed my mobile phone. This has already wasted an hour of my time and I still can't do it. Just to pay aruba you have to enter your otp code that you cant do if you have changed your phone

Horrible support, horrible invoicing practices

I inherited a site hosted on Aruba from a project partner company that had gone belly-up.
I intended to transfer the site to another provider I was more confident with. As soon as I transferred the domain, Aruba instantly erased all backups of the site with no warning, and when asked to provide a site backup they refused. Note that the website hosting was paid for some more weeks (which were of course not refunded!). I was lucky to have made a partial backup myself, and pieced together the few missing pages from Google Cache.

Also, borderline illegal invoice system: after paying, you need to way the 15th of the next month before they send you a link (which they always have forgotten to do in my experience, resulting in multiple support requests from my side) from which to download the invoice.
I mean, how difficult is that, making the invoice the moment you received the money? Amazon does that, mom-and-pop shops do that. And why do I even have to pay before receiving the invoice?
This has caused a lot of problems in my company as we waste time following up these morons who can't be bothered to provide the absolute minimum service level for a commercial company.

Stay far, far away.

Edit: Aruba was quick to reply to this review claiming they were "working on it", but they still did nothing!
Really, mailing me my invoice is actually LESS WORK than monitoring Trustpilot and answering reviews!

Dear Customer,
we are sorry for the inconvenience you have reported, but we would like to confirm that the transfer of the domain to another provider before the expiration of the Service causes the termination of the Contract at the end of the transfer procedure; otherwise, it will terminate on the originally contractual date.
For this reason, contractually and within our guides, we recommend that our users back-up the content inherent in the services before beginning the transfer procedure. Following the completion of this procedure, in fact, the domain and the services associated with it are disabled and the possibility of accessing its contents is disable. It is necessary to point out, in this regard, that in order to facilitate users in consulting the procedures relating to the transfer of the domain to another provider, the Writer makes available within the Consultable Guides the pages:
- https://guide.hosting.aruba.it/richiesta-codice-autorizzazione-e-sblocco-dominio.aspx
- https://guide.hosting.aruba.it/email/trasferimento-modifica-servizio/conseguenze-modifiche-trasferimento.aspx any information useful for the correct implementation of the procedure, including those relating to the cancellation of services associated with the domain name.
The same information is also specified in the "Terms of Contract" signed by the user during the order process and always available at https://hosting.aruba.it/documents/tc-files/it/1_condizionifornituraservizihostingaruba.pdf.
For Aruba billing terms, we make details available at the guide available at: https://guide.pec.it/metodo-di-fatturazione-dei-servizi-aruba.aspx
We apologize for the delay in issuing the invoice related to a problem on the vat number, you will find it at the report 15356967A.
We remain available for any further questions at the above request,
Best regards

Worst customer service ever

Worst customer service ever

We are hosting our pages on Aruba for years now, that means we spent thousands and thousands of euros for their cloud servers, still, they do not answer our simple questions, also they don´t send our bills to us.
Also the site is terrible, you can barely find anything.
Huge disappointment.

When I came out of the airport I had no problem getting a cab. I stayed at an AIRB&B a lovely place. We had a driver named Randy , he was very kind and a very safe driver. Some of the restaurants are very over priced for a small portion of food. The drinks were so watered down. We had to get shots. The best and I do mean the best place to eat is Windows on Aruba the experience was totally worth the money $75.00 per person. The party bus was great. Candy and Baby Girl were the best. Candy is the driver and she can drive a bus. Baby Girl is the hostess that has energy and life that passes on to all on the bus. It's called the Bar hop and we were partying the whole time. I would go back just for the bus ride. The local stores were shady every time we went they charged a different price. The first two times there was no charge for a small paper bag. The last morning the man wanted to charge me $2.00 for a small paper bag. Baby beach ⛱️ was nice and hot. The water was cold. You would think that the water was warm because of how hot it is in Aruba. The guys selling cabanas rip people off, they have the nerve to ask people to buy them drinks too. The souvenir shops are very over priced so be careful and look around before buying in the first store you see. All in all it's a nice desert 🏜 island.

Aruba.it is complete trash!!!

I must tell you which Im sure you have heard this before from numerous other customers that your website is quite horrible!!! Not only is it not comprehensible and not in multi languages as it should be since people do speak other languages besides italian in this country. But the system of "Riconoscimento
Firma digitale remota" doesnt accept the password, it doesnt send me a new one. Then and you have multiple apps instead of just one that does it all. And customer service doesnt reply to my emails even though your website asks clients to email you only to be ignored and is asking for codes instead of accepting my email for help its madness!!!! This is ridiculous!! Id rather be refunded at this point.
Devo dirvi che sono sicuro che l'avete già sentito da numerosi altri clienti che il vostro sito web è piuttosto orribile!!! Non solo non è comprensibile e non in più lingue come dovrebbe essere poiché le persone parlano altre lingue oltre all'italiano in questo paese. Ma il sistema del "Riconoscimento
Firma digitale remota" non accetta la password, non me ne invia una nuova. Quindi hai più app invece di una sola che fa tutto. E il servizio clienti non risponde alle mie e-mail anche se il tuo sito web chiede ai clienti di inviarti un'e-mail solo per essere ignorato e chiede codici invece di accettare la mia e-mail per chiedere aiuto è una follia !!!! Questo è ridicolo!! Preferirei essere rimborsato a questo punto.

Did anyone at Aruba study web design?

I don't think anyone involved in this company studied web design. It takes hours to do the simplest task with constant error messages and time outs. Really useless.
If you want happy users the overall system needs to be user-friendly and intuitive. I have been involved in one way or another in computer studies since the 70's, I have studied for a degree in webdesign at university level. Aruba seem to make it up as they go along, most users would expect their login to be their email, Aruba allocates a random number as the login, why? Am I supposed to remember a random number? I have several hundred logins. You offer the service in English but it is clearly not finished as I get timeouts and error messages at every turn, even for something simple like changing my password. Instead of having one entry point for all your services I have to remember where to login for webmail, hosting, SPID, all different. I know computer use is historically low in Italy but unless you make your systems friendly and similar to those that have gone before how do you expect the older to have even half a chance of using them.
