Overall Satisfaction with Pantheon
We use Pantheon to host a Drupal application. It is used by a specific department for a specific purpose. Pantheon basically provides us a platform with a dev, test and live environment and since we often have to make code level changes in the application, it makes it easier for us to test, manage and maintain the codebase and the database.
- Easy to configure, install, and deploy websites and web application.
- Easy to switch between dev, test and live environment.
- Good user experience.
- Great support staffs.
- I feel very comfortable using the platform. They've done a great job putting it together. I can't think of any situation where it was difficult to perform any task.
- It takes care of the DevOps side of the project.
- There are no issues related to hosting, downtime or server issues.
- It provides security and reliability that is so important for our application.
Acquia is quite an established platform and is a much bigger company than Pantheon. We've been using Acquia for a long time now. But from using both services, I personally like using Pantheon more. It doesn't have a high learning curve. It's easy to configure, install and deploy. I sometimes find the Acquia's user interface quite odd. Pantheon's interface is much more user-friendly and intuitive.
