About Mangesh

Mangesh runs ThatMy.com, a site publishing independent hosting benchmarks. He's spent 10+ years in ISP and network infrastructure—deploying fiber, managing Linux core routers, configuring authentication systems, and handling QoS policies for hundreds of real users.

That infrastructure background changed how he approaches hosting reviews. Most reviewers test on clean, dedicated servers. Mangesh tests like a real customer: on oversold shared hosting, under traffic spikes, with realistic plugin loads. He buys every hosting plan with his own money.

Key credentials:

  • Hosting tested across major providers (shared, VPS, managed WordPress, cloud, dedicated)
  • 10+ years in ISP operations and network infrastructure
  • ISP background: fiber deployment, Linux systems, RADIUS/PPPoE authentication, QoS management
  • Every plan reviewed is purchased at the regular customer price (no free press accounts)
  • Publishing independent reviews since 2014

Editorial Philosophy

Mangesh's approach to hosting reviews is built on four principles:

  1. Independence: No free accounts, no press tier access, no vendor partnerships. Every plan is purchased with real money.
  2. Transparency: Full methodology published. Tests can be reproduced. Data sources disclosed.
  3. Honesty: If a host is slow, it's reported as slow—even if the affiliate commission is high. Editorial integrity over revenue.
  4. Depth: Go beyond marketing claims. Test under load, investigate hidden clauses, verify hardware specs, analyze renewal pricing.
