(1-15 of 15)Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
- migrating in from other cloud providers, architecture dependent though
- Automation of infrastructure at scale, but dependent on your own level of skills. Most common industry tools can be used - which is the part I personally like.

Great quality cloud hosting for unbeatable prices
- Figuring out the cause of web server issues

Unmatched Quality at an Unmatched Price
- Restoring from a backup
- Accessing files/databases without external software (to their credit, they do have a means of accessing the command line from the web interface)

Linode vs. Others - Our journey so far
- Setting up backup to happen on specific date
- Moving server between different zones as the IP changes
- I've not found anything particularly cumbersome.

Stop fighting your infra and start loving it
- Backups - I wish snapshots were an option

Linode the BEST IaaS ever

Linode Virtual Private Servers
- Find where you assign IP addresses to domains you have setup those IP addresses in DNS (at least was originally hard after the change).

Linode Review
- There are some anomalies in the way the community support functions work and are presented.
- The list of supported OS images is fairly small...although it is growing. Still, there is no support for other, non-Linux OSs/distributions (e.g. *BSD).
- Some capabilities are ONLY available through the CLI and/or API.
March 17, 2021
Cheap, Fast, Stable. Pick 2. No, pick 3!
- Layer 2 VLAN.
- Regions for Object storage very limited.
