Sort of.2017-09-25T17:39:24.912ZWe use Pantheon in our business to deploy Drupal installations for client projects. It is a relatively simple way to setup a workflow for Drupal development environments and deploy changes to production. It handles file and database pushes in ways that would otherwise be laborious and time-consuming for a developer to handle.,The test and development environments are easy to work on without worrying about making production changes.
If you make a mistake, it's no big deal. Pantheon has backups of everything and it's easy to restore them.
The button to push to production is like magic.,The documentation is not for novice users. Setup requires some knowledge about the workflows and if your only experience with web hosting is a GoDaddy shared hosting plan, you'll struggle to find your footing.
Even for experienced users, the documentation can seem incomplete. I had to contact support several times for answers to questions that seemed like they should be simple.
My experience with support was very hit or miss. Sometimes I would get a great agent who understood exactly what I was trying to do. Sometimes I would get an agent who didn't seem to know anything. My only contact with support was during an initial setup though, once I was up and running everything is pretty easy, and I haven't had to contact them again even after multiple other deployments.,8,Once it's setup, the workflow is very efficient and saves a lot of time.
Automated backups and easy restorability can save you if you make a mistake.,Rackspace,WordPress, Drupal, MagentoNicholas De SalvoPantheon Review2017-09-08T21:04:52.299ZWe are using Pantheon as a way to host and manage our clients' websites.

We also use Pantheon to host a large number of small campaign sites, also on Drupal 8. It provides us with a convenient portal to administrate a large number of sites. It allows us to transfer ownership over to a customer after delivery. It also has a CLI interface to greatly help with creation/deployment and continuous integration.,Their CLI product Terminus.
Ease of creating projects and multiple branch/dev environments within.,Better generic support/documentation on CI platforms other than the Pantheon preferred platform.
More resources on instances. Module updates can fail on install/update due to the server running out of memory. Only options are to upgrade services, or build the core site external to Pantheon and then import back into the Pantheon environment. The latter part is a detriment to customers/users that are not more savvy than installing modules through the GUI.,10,Rapid deployment of feature and security updates from upstreams takes less time than installing by hand.
Automation and integration through Terminus CLI is extremely useful.,,JIRA SoftwareThomas HumburgA great hosting platform for WordPress and Drupal2017-08-29T14:25:59.164ZWe use Pantheon to host a Drupal application. It is used by a specific department for a specific purpose. Pantheon basically provides us a platform with a dev, test and live environment and since we often have to make code level changes in the application, it makes it easier for us to test, manage and maintain the codebase and the database.,Easy to configure, install, and deploy websites and web application.
Easy to switch between dev, test and live environment.
Good user experience.
Great support staffs.,I feel very comfortable using the platform. They've done a great job putting it together. I can't think of any situation where it was difficult to perform any task.,10,It takes care of the DevOps side of the project.
There are no issues related to hosting, downtime or server issues.
It provides security and reliability that is so important for our application.,Acquia Platform,Drupal, WordPress, Bitbucket, GitHubVerified User
