Really good support and performance

- You won't encounter any problems concerning downtime
- Performance isn't affected by increased traffic

Expertise at the enterprise level
We’ve been working with WordPress since 2011, so naturally, technology and innovation underpin everything we do. We’re one of fourteen WordPress VIP Gold Partners and the only agency in the UK to hold that accreditation. We use WordPress VIP as it gives the enterprise-level clients that we deal with the security, speed, and scalability they require. We work on many projects that require non-technical teams on the client-side to be able to undergo training to launch their own content, pages, and even sites. WP VIP helps us facilitate that.
- Scalability, right up to the enterprise level - massive traffic spikes are handled without a hitch
- Updates - many of the core elements are updated automatically
- Their performance monitoring is excellent, the 99% uptime speaks for itself

WordPress VIP changed the way we work
WordPress VIP hosts our clients' websites. The main issue we had before was a lot of precious time spent on maintenance, scaling, and keeping websites optimised for best performance. Hosting with WordPress VIP saves us time and therefore saves us money. Another important issue we stopped worrying about is stability. There are so many hosting companies out there that offer all types of hosting, from small blog websites to dedicated servers. We have been looking for years for the best hosting that will deliver on stability and take the headache away from us. WordPress VIP did that.
- Fast & professional WordPress hosting
- Security
- Stability
- Top notch support
- Managed hosting doesn't allow some features we would like to have access/control of

A good companion for large projects
We deal with big projects, and WordPress VIP is a reliable solution that provides the scalability and performance that we seek. There is also important to mention that talking with a support team that knows the job is always a pleasure. And we also work with them cause security is an important concern that they take care of, leaving us free to code the solution for our clients.
- Support
- Security
- Intuitive
- Uploading files
- Lack of small solution for small projects

Working with WordPress VIP makes you feel as though there are no limits.

WordPress VIP - the only partner you need to go viral
Thanks to WordPress VIP, we can handle extremely high traffic with exceptional performance and stability. Very content-rich sites became much easier to manage. They go up and beyond to provide top-notch security (which wasn't so obvious with alternative providers) and put a great emphasis on support - a bunch of professionals able to help on any issue. What differentiates WordPress VIP from the crowded ecosystem is WordPress and other CMSes. If you’re looking for pointers, we’d love to highlight the value of our security, scalability, reliability, performance, and the depth of expertise in our support team.
- Fastest hosting on the market
- Automated hourly backups and updates
- Easily handle millions of page views
- Best WordPress security I've seen so far
- They are not the cheapest provider for sure, but no other does what they do
As an agency, we rely on WPVIP to provide stable scalable hosting and comprehensive e-commerce solutions to our customers. The biggest benefit for us is that WPVIP provides a reliable solution with fast support and allows our customers to grow their business/website platform and expand internationally.

- Some hosting parameters are not adjustable.

Great product
We use WordPress VIP to help our enterprise clients meet their content management requirements. The platform is designed to manage sites with a vast array of multimedia content, so for us, it's invaluable in managing, hosting, and maintaining our client's sites. From design to ongoing management, it's a great tool.
- Managing content-heavy sites
- Traffic management
- Makes scaling easier
- Headless CRM feels like it's had its day, but otherwise, no major concerns
Elementary Digital is a dedicated WordPress agency operating in the EMEA region. We work with clients looking to create and manage Enterprise-level WordPress websites. The concerns often with WordPress are centered around security, scalability, and performance, which for those who work in WordPress (and the organizations that use it) are not issues. However, one of the key considerations for these concerns is hosting and this is where WordPress VIP steps in. Effectively it's hosting from the organization (Automattic) that develops WordPress and its hosting is closely aligned to the development roadmap of WordPress itself. This, of course, provides great peace of mind for organizations, working directly with the CMS owners and being first in line to ensure security is paramount allowing for scale, reliability, and most important performance.
- Security - class leading security, ensuring sites are protected and operate hassle free
- Scalability - provide patches and updates first before the market place
- Reliability - up to 99.9% up time, with a fantastic track record
- Performance - hitting the high notes for Core Web Vitals and ensuring WordPress is operating at its peak performance
- Smaller packages - which typically only operate in the Enterprise space, could offer more cost-effective solutions for smaller organizations

Let your developers sleep soundly and have VIP host your site
VIP had been our WordPress hosting partner for almost four years now. We love having a partner like VIP to relieve our small team of the maintenance, scaling, and server management duties. We are not in the business of web hosting and we can focus on building out great features and capabilities for our members.
- Fast WordPress hosting
- Responsive support
- Great developer tools
- Troubleshooting sometimes difficult
- Managed services come with less flexibility
Our organization uses WordPress VIP as our primary hosting platform for our B2B marketing websites. Our reason for moving to WPVIP was to unify all our websites under one platform that would help us manage WordPress and give us the level of support, security, and scalability one would expect at any enterprise level. I have used WordPress for years and being able to have it accessible at the enterprise level is what WPVIP has made happen. Our content and campaign production is significantly more efficient and our overhead on website maintenance has decreased. We can now spend that budget on producing higher quality content and features on our sites that drive our business to the next level.
- Email support is more than enough! They are quick and always responsive even when there are urgent problems.
- Manages our WordPress codebase for security patches and updates rather well.
- Their partnership with our development team has helped us be hands-off with confidence when it comes to fixing any bugs.
- Having email-only support sometimes is cause for concern within leadership. If there is an opportunity for phone support we would probably consider that. It may already be an option I am unaware of.

WordPress VIP: The Gold Standard
When it comes to hosting, WordPress VIP is the gold standard. It's the perfect blend of hosting and software support. If you have high-end needs for high-end hosting, WordPress VIP is the best option. The support is equally as good as the technology as well. I run a multisite environment and make sure it's up and running one less thing to keep me up at night.
- Support
- Code Review
- Updates
- Interfacing with the Jetpack team
- Non emergency support tickets
- LinkedIn Integration
