Overall Satisfaction with Linode

We use three Linodes, one for us to test our systems and make demos to our clients. The second Linode is for one of our clients, they are in Saudi Arabia and the last one is for a governmental organization which is a client too. All these Linodes are used as PaaS (Platform as a Service).
  • Easy to manage.
  • Good insights.
  • Backups.
  • Support.
  • One platform for everything (positive impact).
  • Need good experience as platform manager.
  • Support is very responsive but limited.
A great environment for a hybrid-cloud with all organization platforms hosted and managed in one place.
Very responsive but limited.
Prices are incomparable.
Two of my clients are hosted on Linode. One is a restaurant that needs the system to be up without any performance issues for 18 hours a day, the other is a governmental entity with a very aggressive service-level agreement and penalty matrix. The first client is extremely satisfied with zero downtime in two years and no penalties were decided on us with the second client.
Linode is good for admins and users with good knowledge in information technology and server management. If the user has little knowledge of server management then he will need help from experts. The good thing is there are a lot of tech gurus who have experience with Linode on platforms like Upwork and others. Linodes themselves can be used for all hosting purposes.
