User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	CDNetworks No answers on this topic	DigitalOcean When you dont know how to set up a cloud server technically, (The LAMP stack or the PHP settings etc) Cloudways comes handy. You can easily modify the server settings with one click. Less Appropriate - If you want to save costs, go for direct cloud providers. Setting up technical stuff is a one time job.

Usability	CDNetworks No answers on this topic	DigitalOcean They are constantly improving their dashboards and interface to make it easier to use and find the things that we use the most. It's a lot of features to pack in to one UI and they have done a great job of making it user friendly. Their layout is intuitive and easy to learn and is extremely granular. We are able to control every aspect of our websites and applications from an individual level from scaling, to cache, to DNS, security, WAF, and everything in between.

Support Rating	CDNetworks No answers on this topic	DigitalOcean Technical support is just 2-3 clicks away and the Cloudways homepage and the operators are available almost 24/7. They also are able to answer any kind of question related to their services, whether economical or technical. I sometimes made mistakes while using their services and they have been keen to help me, and fixed my problems really fast. DP Dario Pedroni Web Developer Read full review
Alternatives Considered	CDNetworks No answers on this topic	DigitalOcean DigitalOcean: harder to set up, hands-on maintenance and controll, but needs work-hours of a linux expert. GoDaddy: absolutely worst of all providers, charges stupid people money for nothing-services. Horrible products in my opinion. HostGator: okay-ish hosting, nowhere to the power of Cloudways, the customer support also is much less knowledgeable. I would advise against all managed hostings. Go managed-cloud instead.

Return on Investment	CDNetworks No answers on this topic	DigitalOcean We were able to reduce load on our main server. By migrating social sentiment platform to cloudways, we were able to scale and run it effeciently. It saved lot of time as well in terms of server management.
