The verdict
Straight answer: Namecheap matches or beats us on at least one ending above. If that is the only domain you hold, there is no saving in moving it, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. Where we are worth a look is if you want the domain, the hosting and the mailboxes in one place with one person answering the phone.
Moving a domain is not the ordeal it sounds
A transfer needs an auth code from your current registrar, and it extends your registration by a year rather than resetting it, so you do not lose the time you have paid for. Your site and email keep running throughout, as long as the DNS records come across, which is the part we handle.
Start with the transfer checker, which tells you whether a name is eligible to move yet, or read moving your website to a new host.
