You can try Cloudways with a free trials. They offers easy-to-use application hosting options to allow you to better focus on web your application development and your business. Their prices are more than honest. You can solve any issue with their direct chat service and their super fast ticket service. I've moved my most important Wordpress websites to Cloudways and I'm very satisfied.
There are no downsides on using Cloudways
My websites are faster!
Dynamism of the server, ease of interaction with resources.
For now there is no complaint, everything is very simple and intuitive.
Management of all sites in one place, speed and dynamism and ease.
The support articles are full of images and video. I am not techy, but I am a solopreneur do everything myself. The support is easy to understand and there's no confusion with all the articles, arrows, and video. When those articles aren't enough, the live chat never fails. Support reps are cheerful and responsive.
Getting started wasn't bad, but like all tech services, there was a learning curve. There was some miscommunication bout the price per month for my selected server that had to be corrected. It cost me double for a few months before I caught on. But it was easily solved with chat support.
My site is being hosted in an economical, up to date fashion that isn't GoDaddy. Support continues to impress me even after a year of their services. Other companies have dropped their responsiveness once a new client is established, not Cloudways.
Everything, the interface, the support, the speed of the site
That there are no emails in the system, only through an external provider
Server stability and speed
The interface is clean and easy to understand, incorporating server level tools and tweaks with single clicks. Changing the entire site domain is a simple task, resetting file and folder permissions is a single click. Deploying clones and staging servers/sites is simple. The speed is super fast by default rad they’ve obviously tweaked their setup to a fine degree. And the migration tools offered are by far the best I’ve ever used. The first reliable ones that work every single time without any failures.
I have not found any downside yet. A slight issue I had was the ability to test a powerful enough server option on trial before adding a card. But that’s just because the site I wanted to test was massive. I just upgraded right away instead of taking the trial and never regretted it!
Server management and maintenance is now much more simple and our site speed which affects business massively has been increased dramatically.
Functionality, Flexibility, Price-to-Quality Ratio
Interface could be even more intuitive, requires some amount of knowledge
Increased performance and speed for my wordpress site
Domain setting, SSL, Clone, Upgrade, Migrate
pricing, cloudways is costly for a startup
speedy with deployment, easy SFTP. Huge benefits such as staging, and SSL auto enable.
The portal is extremely easy to use and support is very responsive and helpful.
Nothing yet. We've only directly administered our own application for a short period of time.
Our server has been hosted with Cloudways for several years but was managed by a 3rd party development agency until very recently. We created our own Cloudways account and transferred the server from the agency's account to ours. The transition was unbelievably quick and easy. The billing now comes directly to us and we can still grant access to our 3rd party development partners as needed.
No subscription plans that lock you in for a year, you can even pay per hour! Simple easy to use control panel and a range of hosting options, not to mention a massive range of configuration options. Built in Lets Encrypt for SSL certificates also.
You could get it even cheaper by going direct to the hosting providers, like Digital Ocean, but you have to do so much of the setup yourself.
Cloudways has made my WordPress sites much faster.
Support is one of the best features. Within a few seconds you can chat with someone.
I can't find a critical thing at the moment
Server-side things, performance questions..
I especially like the promptness of Cloudways response and the completeness of their support.
I have not identified any reason for discontent thus far.
Cloudways have helped me with post migration problems, server cache improvement, and resolving Bot Protection issues.
Cloudways is like the pay-as-you-go phone card version of the hosting service world. It is the easiest thing to cancel the account and you pay month by month, so it is a really risk free experience if you are hesitant about trying them out. I like how in the future in will be easy to scale the size of the server. I like how the price is as low as $126 per year, that you can fit around 4 websites for this price, that they provide free SSL, that their backend is very easy to use, that their support is very kind to beginners, that funds can be added to the Cloudways account once you are sure of them, so that you don't have to worry about paying the bill each month and that they have one-click installation of the WordPress or WooCommerce platforms. I feel secure with Cloudways, despite them being more expensive than a free hosting service. I also feel secure with Cloudways over big business names that cost more. I like how they aren't shady.
There is actually nothing I dislike about Cloudways. They are my go-to place and I use them for my business. I have been using them as my safe-place while looking for a free service somewhere, but free places seem really iffy compared to the peace of mind that Cloudways offers.
I have been able to solve the need for a good hosting service for my business website with Cloudways. It took me a long time to be able to find such an ideal and reliable hosting service. It is very beneficial to me that they have proven to be so trustworthy. Their low pricing and easy to use platform are also beneficial. I am a pre-paid phone card person, so I find the way they operate really desirable.
Results as expected from the services taken.
Nothing. I find this better than Amazon AWS for the services we have taken.
We are hosting our websites on Cloudways.
My life as developer changed 360°, the best tool to simplify the way to prepare each application in my 15 years integrating and using different providers.
The way to start the support by Bot is a good idea, however is necessary to trace faster when i can´t to resolve my problem using the Bot articles.
Secure, simple and fast tool to delivere Apps in cutting edge technology
This is the best user interface I have ever seen to manage website/application hosting. It's intuitive, modern and stable. Various servers to choose from with best performance from Google, Amazon & Co.
The only thing I dislike: No IPv6 is the only thing missing.
Great support team – no matter what issue I came up so far.
How simple it is to set up applications and manage server settings etc.
The UI can be a bit slow at times, and would like to be able to edit other applications while application changes are happening (they do seem to be quite slow as well)
Hosting my clients website, saving lots of time (and increasing revenue)
the interface makes it easy to do complicated things from a simple interface. Support is excellent
markup on droplets is quite high. Some of the time you are paying double what you normally would for an otherwise automated system. It would be nice to get discounts on multiple servers for high volume users.
managing many clients websites from one panel. Makes it very easy to deploy and manage servers.
I appreciated step by step, hands on guidance from a Cloudways engineer!
Online tutorials are a little difficult for me to follow
Host migration
their support team is on hand, helpful, considerate and not rushing you to just get a job done at all. Even though, I pay for the lowest price plan, the support team treat me very well.
three months in and still cannot find any dislike to Cloudways yet.
Affiliate request, taking my site live, server checking, guide to support articles.
Easy, good value and support is brilliant. I looked at 8 other providers and cloudways by far the best value.
It would be great to get more of a breakdown of my invoice. There are so many variables with hosting I would love to understand the finer details.
easy migration with great support
