Agreed, there’s no comparison. Anyone who thinks GoDaddy’s interface is anything but dogshit has never used anything else. And Dreamhost’s pricing winds up being way better once you tally up all the nickel & diming GoDaddy does (charging for additional email addresses & aliases?)
My experience with DH shared hosting hasn’t been without the occasional bump or gripe, but I will never touch GoDaddy again (the only reason I ever did in the first place was because a clueless new employer had already set up with them.)
