Overview
In just a few years midphase has grown from no customers to over 40,000 customers. They grew from a couple home offices to their current facility in the heart of Chicago. It all started with one one server and now amounts to hundreds of servers in their private cage at Equinix Chicago. On May 12, 2003, Dan Ushman and Zak Bocato began midphase with a $1,500 investment. In the meantime their staff grew to more than 30 people in two offices.

Reliability
midphase uses the same Facility, Equinix, that Google Inc. and other big names (About.com, Yahoo! Broadcast, YellowPages.Com) use for hosting their servers. I have not seen google having performance issues. So, I guess there's nothig to worry about here.

Price Value
midphase offers several Linux and Windows platform hosting plans at very low prices and with the high disk space and bandwidth allowances. With their Mega-PHASE plan you get 25,000 MB Disk Space, Free Domain for Life, 1,500,000 MB Bandwidth, E-commerce Enabled and all that with no Setup Fee for just 7.95 per month!

Control Panel
midphase uses Cpanel, the best control panel in the industry, especially for beginners. This control panel is icon based which make at very easy to build, make changes and manage your entire web site. It also offers Real-Time e-mail account and domain management. Some of the other features are easy installation of scripts and databases, with a click of a button.

Customer Support
Customer service at midphase is a top priority. midphase offers Phone Support (1-312-386-1640), where Their experienced tech support professionals are available 24/7. You can also reach them via E-mail around the clock. On their website you find tutorials, online Help and an Active Community. They also have a 24/7 online chat.

Summary
midphase was picked as the # 1 rated web host mainly because it's run by real people (you can check out their blogs: Dan Ushman and Zak Bocato), has the best infrastructure while offering good prices. Yes, you can find hosting companies that look cheaper, but whether they are a better value is more than questionable.
