DigitalOcean Reviews & Product Details

I have been a Digital Ocean User since 2016 and its just so easy to start with. One Click and you have Droplet (VPS). And if you need something like a Wordpress Site, its just as easy by choosing one of the Images available in the Marketplace. And 8 Years and Dozens more Features later, its just as easy to use.

I dont really have any, since most things I wanted are already in Digital Ocean now, including Kubernetes, Object Storage and Database support.

Ability to start very quick without overwhelming first time Users.

The speed of servers. Fast deployment. minimum issues with uptime and speed. Proactive handling of infrastructure.

Nothing specially to dislike. If they can provide the same service in low cost or provide more resources then it is better. Otheriwse I am fine with the current charges.

They are providing great service till date. I have never got an option to complain about anything.

Very simple to use interfaces and tools for booting up web servers with certain stacks pre-installed. The dashboard is very clear to see utilization, server setup, backups, DNS records. Switching between server "sizes" and expanding storage it very strightforward and their online documentation is EXTENSIVE. I have found myself trying to use DigitalOcean's documentation on other servers that I am forced to use simply because they have done an amazing job of creating step-by-step guides with tips and warnings.

There is not quite the variety of choices for server configurations and special tools (GPUs, AIs, etc) that AWS provides, but I can only get so upset about that because what I like about DigitalOcean is the simplicity. I have never needed to contact their support, but based on some of the things I have read it can be hard to get in touch with a human support team, that being said I have been using their service for years and never needed something that they didn't already ave documentation for.

I needed a relaiable and cost effective service to run a custom-coded eCommerce application (mostly PHP/MySQL) and they had plans that started at $5 and allowed me to scale up as my business needed.

When We have to make a support contact , the response is very fast, and always on the point. Even the free tier of support that has only incedents and bugs, is very very fast and more than described. Other than that , the network is super fast, their CDN is great. Features are getting relised all year round. Hosted Databases and Functions (Miscro services architecture) is reliable and scalable easily. Their API is transparent and you can create you own scalers for bare metal servers. Digital ocean have great tutorials on how to use things and how to create your own server, which is super helpfull for teams without Devops. their live backup feature is great, and their prices are very transparent. Overall it's a great internet provider.

I would like to see some more features for server downtime handling.

We can trust their infrastracture, their uptime is 99.99%+, their internal networking is great. Many location rounds the worls, transparent prices.

Great uptime. Great Customer Services. Easy to use platform. Great for starting a self-teaching environment. Very affordable prices for a variety of use-cases.

There is absolutely nothing to dislike, from my experience with Digital Ocean.

Availability at a great price. I can afford to learn and practice remote productivity, with their services.

Everything works as described and costs less. That's critical when you're a startup. I don't feel like I get nickel-dimed for every little thing.

Haven't found anything yet. It might be nice to actually talk to someone if needed, but I haven't needed it so far.

Provides me with a platform to run my SaaS solution.

Excellent UI. It can be operated without looking at the manual.

Unfortunately, there is no region in Japan yet. However, we are looking forward to the future.

A DNS capable of API responses is excellent. This allows the issuance of wildcard Let's Encrypt SSL certificates from the TOOL.

I was having trouble to accomodate a Python routine with a Databse to help me on process automation at my business and Digital ocena helped me. THey were easy, fast but overall cheap!

There is nothing I dislike from Digital Ocean

We upload to the clod our bot pfor process automation

Its simplicity and bast community and documentation.

Nothing, by now i haven't found something i don't like.

Installing a base server configuration and management.

Digital ocean provides the best VPS services, easy to set up and scale as per project demands

Nothing at all, they are flawless in making happy users

Hosting frontend and backend of our application that is constantly being updated

DigitalCcean gives me complete control of my VM. It also provides detailed documents for almost everything I want

The only thing I don't like is I have little time to test all the functions that DigitalOcean provides me.

DigitalOcean is friendly to beginners. Compared to another Iaas, DigitalOcean got me in fast.

Digital ocean is reliable, my droplets and apps just work. The basics are all there, networking and basic monitoring are just present. It lets us focus on our products and services and not being cloud architects.

In some cases the major cloud providers offer services that abstract away complexity and these services make unskilled corporate types feel more secure in choosing them. Our company isn't one of those but I have worked for some.

Hosting services like web, api, email and other internal services.

Digitalocean is a very developer friendly IAAS and well documented. I always use it and recommend it to my clients.

The thing I hope for in Digitalocean is to have a presence in the Middle East region as Amazon did.

Block storage (space) is the main service I use for my apps, it fulfill my needs and has full usage API.

I like the agility, speed, and technology of DigitalOcean.

I find the pricing of DigitalOcean's plans to be expensive.

DigitalOcean is solving several problems for me. One of the key benefits is the simplification of cloud infrastructure management. It provides a user-friendly platform that makes it easier for me to deploy and manage servers and applications without the need for advanced technical expertise. Additionally, DigitalOcean's scalable infrastructure and fast provisioning times help me quickly adapt to changing resource demands, which is crucial for my projects. The availability of a wide range of pre-configured one-click applications and developer-friendly features also saves me time and effort. Overall, DigitalOcean's solutions have streamlined my workflow and reduced the complexities associated with cloud hosting, making it a more cost-effective and efficient choice for my needs.

The best of digitalocen is User interfac, even for a non technical user can also create the droplet or space object in digitalocean. And meanwhile pricing is also less comparing to the other compitetors

one of the mjor drawback is the support. Digitalocean doesnt have a premium support like AWS provide. If you face any issue in digitalocean and raised a concern through support ticket , the customer support team from digitalocean simply send you some linke which was created in there blog who to solve the issue. most of the articles dosen't solve the issue using the articles

The major benefiting you the pricing and the components which are provide by digitalocean, like in space object the CDN was included by default where in some other services we have to pay some extra amount for using CDN. If i want to create any component i dont to specify I AM rules and policy
