The WP Engine support team is top-notch. They are quick and very responsive. In my experience they answer support chats in under a minute. Everything with WP Engine is top-notch.

The cost is more than what you pay for other services. But you have to keep reminding yourself. "You get what you pay for." What you pay for WP Engine is well worth it.

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

They do a great job of managing WordPress sites. We don't have to worry about WordPress configuration issues. Everything just works.

"My favorite WordPress hosting solution for the past 8 years"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The digital product agency that I started has been using WP Engine for the past 8 years and has hosted over 100 sites on their platform spread out over various client accounts. WP Engine is my all-time favorite web hosting provider that provides top-notch WordPress hosting services. Their cutting-edge technology, excellent customer support, and security features make it easy for us to manage and scale our WordPress sites. We're particularly impressed with how easy it is to spin up testing, staging, and production sites on WP Engine, which makes it convenient for us to test and deploy new features or updates on client sites. As an agency, we also appreciate WP Engine's partnership program, which offers exceptional resources, benefits, and marketing opportunities for agencies. Our account manager, Levi Warner, and community manager Michael Oh have done an excellent job leading the agency partnerships program, and their commitment to supporting agency partners is evident in everything they do. Can’t recommend enough!

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

WP Engine's focus on providing premium hosting services with cutting-edge technology, excellent customer support, and security features means that their plans are generally slightly more expensive than some of their competitors. This is not a concern for us though.

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

WP Engine is solving several "problems" for our digital product agency and benefiting us in many ways. Examples: - Hosting reliability: WP Engine's top-notch infrastructure and security features provide a reliable hosting environment for our client's WordPress sites. This ensures that our client's sites are always up and running, with minimal downtime, leading to happy clients and less stress for our team. - Scalability: WP Engine's platform allows us to easily scale our clients' WordPress sites as their traffic and business needs grow. This means we can avoid the hassle of migrating sites to new servers or upgrading hardware, which saves us time and effort. We've used WP Engine for sites that has millions of visitors - Security: WP Engine's advanced security features and practices provide an added layer of protection against cyber threats, keeping our clients' sites secure and reducing the risk of data breaches. - Ease of management: WP Engine's user-friendly interface and easy-to-use tools make it easy for us to manage our client's WordPress sites.

"Fast, reliable, great staging features, excellent support"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The easy-to-use staging environment and very fast copy from live to stage and vice-versa, and the excellent customer support.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

The price is a bit steep for me to use with my own websites, as I have many of them, and it would be too expensive to host them all with WP Engine. I wish it were cheaper – I would move all my sites over.

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

Fast websites, monitoring of out of date plugins and Wordpress, multiple development sites that can easily and quickly be copied to and from live. Excellent, fast customer support whenever I need it.

"Solid hosting, solid support."
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The consistent performance from WPengine is true for their uptime, speed, support team, and work they put into innovation and improving their platform. WP engine is always on top of it.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

The cost would be my number one concern if I were a smaller client. At the agency level, it's a lesser concern. The same rings true for a brochure site vs. an e-commerce site that brings in revenue. But the benefits still outweigh the downside by far.

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

The ease of use that WPengine provides is fantastic. It has the same tools as a cpanel, but it's much easier to understand and use. Also, anytime something pops up; support is ready to help.

"WP Engine is a game changer"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

I love the reliability of customer service. A live tech support person is available whenever I need them and always willing to go the extra mile to resolve issues.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

There's nothing I dislike about WPEngine. The service is top notch.

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

Clients previously wanted their sites built with discount hosting providers. That regularly became a headache. I made it a requirement to use my hosting or be on their own for post launch support. This eliminated a ton of headaches. I also love the user interface, the automatic daily backups, and the ability to create staging sites.

"Fast, reliable, and secure hosting for WordPress websites"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

One of the standout features of WP Engine is their excellent technical support. Whenever we have had a question or issue, the WP Engine support team has been quick to respond and provide helpful solutions. The platform is also very user-friendly and offers a variety of tools and resources to make managing a WordPress site easier. In addition to their technical support and user-friendly platform, WP Engine is highly optimized for speed and performance. Our clients' WordPress sites have experienced a noticeable improvement in load times and overall performance since switching to WP Engine.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

I really don't have any dislikes. One of the things I can think of is the cost of the hosting packages. But then again, if you want premium service, you need to pay for it, so all good on that. I really don't have a problem paying a little more to get such a great and reliable service.

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

BB Agency highly recommends WP Engine for WordPress hosting. WP Engine offers fast, reliable, and secure hosting for WordPress websites. Their platform is specifically designed for WordPress, which allows for seamless integration and optimization of the website.

"Nobody Does It Better"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

I love everything about WP Engine! Their technology, UI, and support make them deservedly no.1 regarding WordPress hosting. The fact that WP hosting is their only business shows. I am very familiar with other WP hosts and WP Engine is and will always be my first choice. I am an affiliate and I know that my referrals will make clients happy.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

It's a small thing but I don't like the info and alert popups in the UI. That was added about 2 years ago and it is annoying and not necessary.

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

Just the tech support in general is so great. What ever I pay each year to WPE is worth it and then some.
