Chose Rackspace Managed Hosting
In my experience, Rackspace Managed Hosting was horrible.
RackSpace is in its own category. It's not really a direct competitor with the above. It seems to be hitting the gap between costs and effectiveness. They allow exposure to APIs in the same typical methods as other major providers and support most major tooling, albeit in a …
LiquidWeb or Amazon both offer some products that could be considered similar. I will say though, after years of dealing with Rackspace, their service is what always has me coming back. Their support is typically so much better than other vendors that I hesitate to use other …
We used Rackspace for less important servers that we needed to host outside of our primary hosting provider's network. We use IBM Cloud (Softlayer) for our primary production hosting, and Rackspace has served us well for having servers elsewhere. We selected Rackspace because …
AWS is more and reliable and will work better for our organization from now on. Rackspace has served its purpose but is a slowly dying service. I will still happily give them kudos where it is deserved and they did great in their prime. Amazon is slowly taking over and edging …

Heroku - In order to transfer files to Heroku, you need to know how to use GIT. The flexibility to define how you transfer files to a Rackspace server has its advantages. However, the autoscale ability of Heroku sets it above Rackspace.
Rackspace has infinitely better support than other cloud services providers I have had experience with. Their support via phone and live chat are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and I never have to wait longer than I feel is acceptable. Beyond customer service and …
In terms of simply hosting, all of the aforementioned solutions are more user friendly. Although many do not offer the scalability that RackSpace does, they are easier to manage. In terms of dedicated servers and hosting, SoftLayer beat out RackSpace head to head for my …
It is not a habit of mine to really demarcate lines in the sand of one service provider versus another; each has worthy merits and while there is some benefit to the exercise and some examples that are illustrative and enlightening, use of one product/vendor over another most …
