Overall Satisfaction with Linode
We use Linode to host all of our internal Linux-based systems as well as public-facing services such as our corporate website.
- Ease of configuration.
- Economical (especially bandwidth).
- Predictable pricing.
- More configuration options for storage (PIOPS, etc.).
- Related services such as VPCs.
- Predictable pricing.
- Easy configuration.
- Reliable.
Compared to the "big three" cloud providers, Linode does not have the enormous range of service offerings that they do. I would not attempt to build the next Instagram on Linode. But for companies that simply want a straight-forward cloud provider, they're definitely our favorite.
For a business of our size that does not require a huge range of (very expensive) services, but really just needs some Linux instances spun up, Linode fits our requirements extremely well.
Linode has been superb in availability. We easily achieve 99.99% uptime on Linode instances.
