Linode - The most cost effective service with maximum features
Overall Satisfaction with Linode
As our main product is an education platform, we need to host the website. The site being a heavyweight application, I can't use typical hosting. So we buy VPS from Linode. Linode is one of the best in the market according to our need because our platform is non-profit, so we can't afford big servers all month long. Linode gives us the flexibility to resize servers when the load increases. Our site is built with PHP and we have built a deployment cycle in our Linode, so the development process has been so [much] easier.
Pros
- Pricing
- Resizing Feature
- One Click App Installation
- Free OS-Image Storage
Cons
- Pricing
- Managed Database Service
- Multiple OS options in one click apps
- Minimizing charge
- Resizing ability
- Easing the deployment cycle
DO doesn't take debit card, only credit card. Not good for many people because taking a credit card in many countries has certain legal requirements that many people don't have. Plus their OS-Image storage costs money. Vultr doesn't offer resizing. Moreover, if you have a multiple app server, you have [to] spin up another server and config it to balance the load. In Linode, the load balancer is a different product. Offer's one click service.
