User Testimonials
	Cloudways	HouseCall Pro
Likelihood to Recommend	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. Incentivized Kaushik Somaiya Owner Read full review	HouseCall Pro [HouseCall Pro] would be great for service techs and smaller companies but is tough for companies that do multiple types of jobs, [do] not sync well with QBO for us, and creates an accounting mess. Also does not do job costing so hard to actually keep track of jobs Incentivized SH Sarah Hooley Office Manager Read full review
Pros	DigitalOcean Automatic Daily One Click Restore Backups Integrated CDN Easy & Intuitive Alternate Interface to cPanel and WHM Very Affordable for High Specs 24/7 Customer Support is Extremely Helpful Serve & Application Management is a Breeze Choose from Multiple Server Locations Brandon Dith-Berry Senior Information Technology Manager Read full review	HouseCall Pro Online Booking Instant credit card funding Customer Text Notifications Incentivized Ben Borenstein Electrical Contractor Read full review
Cons	DigitalOcean Their free alternative to WP Rocket could be made more user-friendly and easier to understand Create a function to automatically report heavy usage to specific email IDs Incentivized Naz Haque Google Consultant Read full review	HouseCall Pro Job costing QBO integration Reporting Incentivized SH Sarah Hooley Office Manager Read full review
Support Rating	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	HouseCall Pro No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	DigitalOcean VPS and dedicated hosting are costly, Therefore cloud hosting provides a cheaper way to own a powerful server, and IP is dedicated as well. Cloudways was the decision because: 1) Easy to set up without any linux commands we can set up the server 2) Live chat for technical help. (Excellent agents, they helped out of the scope issues too) Incentivized Kaushik Somaiya Owner Read full review	HouseCall Pro Much easier to use. Incentivized Ben Borenstein Electrical Contractor Read full review
Return on Investment	DigitalOcean Massive ROI compared to Go Daddy's Server Brandon Dith-Berry Senior Information Technology Manager Read full review	HouseCall Pro Negative is time lost fixing books. Negative is having to use multiple programs to fulfill needs so it takes 2x as long. [The] positive is that it is very user-friendly so our team has picked it up easily and techs save time in the field. Incentivized SH Sarah Hooley Office Manager Read full review
