I love how flexible it is and how much there is to use.
There's nothing really I dislike about it. It does what it needs to for what we use it for
The speed element is something Cloudways solves. It's quick and easy to set things up and isn't confusing.
I like the fact that I can set up a VPS server in no time at the best providers and control everything from one place. Server performance is great even on the cheapest machines, Cloudways leaves little performance footprints unlike Runcloud, for example, which consumes a lot of machine resources. I like the tool options like backup, machine and application settings. Support is also very good and competent.
I think the only thing I didn't like about Cloudways until today is the panel interface, I think it's pretty ugly and archaic. It's not intuitive where to find things. A good example of a dashboard that I find simple, elegant and beautiful is Runcloud's. Also having the best VPS providers is great, but being limited to these is also bad. This is another good point of Runcloud that you can install their script on virtually any VPS. Another thing, maybe improve the pricing system for agencies and freelancers. Instead of charging per machine, perhaps create price ranges by number of machines.
For me, the main problem that Cloudways solves is providing good VPS machines, at a good price and with the ease of managing multiple machines on the same panel. It makes it very easy to manage everything in one place.
What I like best about Cloudways, especially compared to other hosting services is the deployment speed, security, dependability, ease of use and affordability.
There was a slight learning curve coming from non-cloud hosting. However, that is not the fault of Cloudways. The only thing that could be a little clearer that Cloudways can address, in my experience, is the Cronjobs executing PHP scripts. However, I did figure that out.
I run a web development business that includes hosting. As speed is a crucial part of the user experience (thus, an essential part of a well-optimized site), cloud hosting is an excellent solution. Cloudways has been the perfect solution for my business.
Super simple and well as incredibely easy to use especially for wordpress and other related hosting things. I used DO as backend.
Bad mobile layout as well as the interface is sometimes buggy and would glitch out.

I have been using Cloudways for two years and the available dedicated servers you can choose from (Digital Ocean, Vultr, Linode, and so on) and the performance of them is amazing. You upscale when you need more capacity when your website grows and receives more traffic, or when you expect to receive more visitors like during Holidays. With a few clicks, you can clone your server to a higher capacity one so you can be sure your website's performance will be up to the task to receive more visitors. You can easily downscale too. You also have a very complete knowledge base where you can find all the information you need to use Cloudways or if you don't find the answer, you are a few minutes away to get the help of a tech support agent. In the two years I have used Cloudways, I have noticed that the waiting time to receive support has been reduced, which is great if your problem is urgent. Overall, I have had a great experience using Cloudways and I highly recommended it.
The small downside I find with Cloudways is the fact that you need to pay extra if you want email accounts with your hosting, the good thing is that is very affordable and easy to implement.
- Dedicated servers for WordPress hosting - High-End Servers with excellent speed and performance. - Easy to use platform to manage your dedicated server.
It's very easy to use, scalable, low-cost, and has quick customer support.
It's difficult to use for a beginner who is used to Cpanel.
I have more than one application in cloudways, which help me to have all of my application in one place and server.
It is easy to use and set up a WordPress site. I don't want to manage infrastructure; Cloudways provides everything to me. I need only set up the server and add a domain for my site. Cloudways provides different hosting services along with different hosting packages. It is accessible to scale servers.
Cloudways only provides three days of the free trial, then onwards if you are planning to go forward with Cloudways minimum starting cost for a month is nearly $10. When comparing others starting costs for beginners, this cost seems high.
I am a blogger and use WordPress to publish my articles. To provide a nonblocking service, I need and good hosting service. Cloudways is one of the best services I have ever experienced. No need care about infrastructure; Cloudways do all it for me.
Their managed VPS beat all other VPS providers. Their customer support is instant. Their pricing is affordable and cheaper than others who offer poor & expensive managed VPS hosings.
The downtime of the MySQL server is not good. They need to work on it as possible as they can. People are not happy when DigitalOcean acquired it. The majority of the customers using Cloudways don't like DigitalOcean & its servers so it made us unhappy when DigitalOcean acquired it.
They are in the process of solving everything website owners would need regarding their hosting. Here are the challenges I need not worry about when using Cloudways; Backup, Speed, Server logs, Customer support, Premium Cloudflare & security, and many others.
