"The Pioneers of White Glove WordPress Hosting"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

WP Engine is the company that we recommend and have used with success for over 10 years now. WP Engine prides itself on being one of the fastest hosting companies. Some of the other advantages WP Engine offers is daily time machine like backups for easy rollback or restores. They also handle all security. If your site is ever hacked they will take full responsibility and restore it at no cost. Another great features is that they offer a clone button of your live site that is copies your site to one of two staging environments. This is great for development as it create a "sandbox" site for development and testing without affecting your current, live site. Above all, their support is without parallel. They offer 24/7 chat and phone support with actual engineers who can help you with any issue you have with the site. On countless occasions they have been there to quickly help resolve any issues.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

The cost can go up for higher traffic plans.

What problems is WP Engine solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ease of use for hosting, support, ability to create staging site all help solve development issues so we can be more productive.

"Excellent service for tech support"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

Tech support is responsive and helpful. The service is very secure – none of my sites have ever been hacked on this environment, unlike with budget hosting plans.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

The service is very expensive. You do not have access to C-panel or equivalent. There are limitations on site traffic and storage. You can only host Wordpress sites here.

What problems is WP Engine solving and how is that benefiting you?

WP Engine has saved me a great deal of time when it comes to bug fixing as support is always on hand and responsive. I don't waste time fixing hacked sites anymore.
