Overall Satisfaction with Linode

Being a system engineer, I have [a lot of] experience with Linode. I'm working on several hosts [at] different locations. Linode services are very powerful and [user-friendly]. [In] my experience I have seen it [as an] excellent choice [for] developers and software engineers because of [its] highly appreciable services. We always recommend Linode to our customers.
  • Linode is having very high uptime.
  • Servers are very easy to configure and dashboard also user-friendly.
  • Cost. Yeah it's very cheap and services is very nice.
  • Multiple datacenters make it fast accessible to multiple locations.
  • Sometime I felt that they need to increase their support, [needs] enhancement.
  • All of the competitors [have the] same features like pricing and hourly pricing system. Should be improved. [...]
  • We purchased Linode for customers so that they [could] be satisfied and Linode never disappointed us.
  • Cheap pricing and highly IaaS gives us more profit to our organization.
  • We always continue with Linode as user and also thinking of being reseller of it.
All the companies [and] service providers [have] some [unique] features. They [work well] but we are having [a good experience] with Linode. As compare to AWS and Google Cloud, Linode is very cheap and if we compare it with DigitalOcean then they both have similar functionalities and pricing too. But we like the simplicity of [the] dashboard for customer point of view for Linode.
I trust Linode but sometimes faces issue about India support system for Linode. All [other] datacenters or support is very good. The ticketing system is good. [...] So we [have been] working with Linode [for the] last [few] years. Never faces any [high] outages of their datacentres so overall it's good.
Linode has very cheap and affordable pricing and if we go on cloud service then [it's] superb. Working with Linode from [the] very [first] time [and] we have never seen a large issue so that we need to shift our servers. In fact, we [had a] very smooth with the service. Our developers never complain [to] us about the outages of the service. So overall we have [a] nice experience with Linode.
Of-course[it is] reliable. [...] Linode is managing their services very efficiently. [...] Never disappointed us.

We always recommend Linode to everyone [who has a] very low budget[...]. Some customers don't even know what is Linode so we let them know [so] they can get [the] best [service] in the medium range of price. We also recommend [it] to colleagues [if they] need some development servers.
