    CenturyLink Private Cloud is well suited for companies that are smaller and wouldn't have to undergo scaling for a longer time. Apart from that, it does well in almost all categories. It wouldn't actually be useful for bigger companies since the UI is a bit laggy sometimes and usually, it's not advisable for big companies.

    Netlify is a static website host, so it obviously wouldn't work for hosting dynamic websites built in PHP, such as WordPress or Drupal. It works very well with static sites with a git codebase on something like GitHub. It has automatic deployments, which include preview websites. It works very well with this workflow. There are solutions for allowing content authoring on static websites on Netlify, but I would probably reach for something like WordPress or Drupal for that.

    • I can connect Github/Gitlab repos or drag and drop code folders directly to host them onto the platform, and can customize build and publish details. It handles all granular details itself, so I don't have to worry about configuring everything like I would have to do on an IaaS like AWS
    • Netlify Platform has inbuilt scalability support - meaning automatic upgrading of servers to handle traffic, without us needing to do anything at all, again, unlike IaaS, where we'd have to manually configure scaling
    • It has a built in CDN, meaning static applications can be served blazing fast over the web without worrying about traffic or latency

    Cons
    Lumen Technologies
    • UI can be really improved, since it sometimes lags a lot
    • Very few know about the product, so they should advertise a bit more
    • There maybe scaling issues since it's a relatively smaller company compared to its competitors

    We interact with the CLI via our CI/CD pipeline. It was very straightforward to get set up, and their documentation is thorough. There are a ton of examples online of various setups. We needed to deploy a React SPA, so we required redirects, which was straightforward with Netlify.

    It doesn't stack up that well against them, since these are big companies and have huge infrastructures and they provide smooth scaling features. However CenturyLink Private Cloud is a little concise and not many people know about it, so I feel like they should advertise more and try to improve their customer outreach.

    Screenshot of where to gather feedback right from the browser with Netlify collaborative Deploy Previews. Share progress early and often with preview links created automatically for every deploy. Netlify automatically builds a new Deploy Preview as a unique permanent URL for each Pull/Merge Request. With no coding or setup, every preview enables reviewers to submit feedback complete with screenshots, videos, and annotations.Screenshot of a team overview in the Netlify platform, used to monitor a team's usage, showing the number of team members and how much build capacity and bandwidth the team is using.Screenshot of Netlify Edge Functions, which help run code at the edge, close to end users.
