Overall Satisfaction with Linode

We use Linode to host client software products, and internally to automate tasks and make use of centralized storage. We have a number of Linodes set up, covering various sizes, Linux configurations and geographic location. They are used on a daily basis, and all our customer services rely on these systems.

Pros

  • Uptime - high availability and great communication about upcoming maintenance.
  • Customer Service - Very technical contacts, able to understand requirements and assist if necessary.
  • Pricing - Very competitive pricing, pay for what you use.

Cons

  • I literally cannot think of a con.
  • Return on investment is amazing, we can provide our customers with (near) 24/7 uptime and for a fair cost.
Linode's implementation is simpler in many ways to competitors, and as a technical user I find that very useful.
Fantastic - they are proactive about problems, and always able to assist. I've never dealt with a technician who didn't have a firm understanding of Linux and the platforms Linode provide.
It does exactly what it's supposed to do - provide us with Linux servers with high availability and easy of management.

Using Linode

4 - Development (backend), marketing and general Sysops

  • Reliability

  • Adding storage on the fly
  • Spinning up additional servers

It works flawlessly, we've had very few outages, and all updates seem to be handled very well. Competent staff and a great range of features.
