Besides the instant and huge speed improvement without lifting a finger, it's having the full visibility of what's going on with my websites when I want to see it and control it. I never imagined I would be able to pile all 12 of my websites onto servers and move them around freely as needed between servers and levels of service as I learn how to do it.
Honestly I've yet to encounter anything undesirable. I moved 12 websites into Cloudways and never once needed to contact support. It's not really because of any expertise, it's more about having the right attitude - working on a need-to-know basis and incrementally assembling things until done.
Cloudways affords me the detailed visibility of what's actually happening with my websites that's just not possible with managed wordpress hosting at, say, GoDaddy, Bluehost, Siteground, Hostgator, etc. The significant increase in speed happens just because it's cloud-based, but I have the ability to then go in and both see and tweak my way to even bigger speed increases.
Help centre is good and support from team is awesome
So far I can't really pick a hole in it - keep up the good work.
Secure hosting.
In 30 minutes I had all my hosting and web pages migrated and working, everything is very easy to setup and now my pages run faster than ever
Not a dealbreaker buy maybe the db management
Hosting my web pages, SSL certificate, migrating and setting up landing pages
Everything at Cloudways Platform is tailored to give us what we need: full management of the servers, simple and intuitive yet powerfull console, with one of the best support teams I've ever found on the market.
I couldn't say I dislike something. It's all so well made and taking in account the customers, that it's hard to find something to criticize. I've been suggesting a few (mostly UI/UX) things, and most of them are acutally being implemented.
It has changed my Server Deployment time from 5 days to a couple hours, and my Problem-Solving Timeframe from days or weeks, to a few minutes. With the Cloudways Support Team I also learn to solve issues on my own, with their help, and this makes me a better Hostmaster using the Cloudways Platform.
The customer service is great and you get a lot of effective help . The speed of my site became excellent
i did not face any issue and they did not help me with
The main problem was the speed of the site and now it is solved with cloudways hosting
Cloudways very quickly allows me to put a new website or test instance online - with the development STACK of my choosing. What I appreciate most is the ability to start up a new project very quickly, without having to handle the configuration myself. This saves a great deal of time, spares me needless complexity, and lets me get to work with less friction. As the usage of a project grows, it's also easy to scale up to meet the new performance needs. And it's affordable. It's also very reliable and has helpful and responsive support. With Cloudways, a new project environment is ready to go for me in just a few minutes.
I have no immediate dislikes that come to mind. Although I had once incurred an issue with log files growing too large, the technical support team resolved it.
Web application prototyping. The key benefit is the immediate deployment of a droplet with the development STACK of my choosing ready to go. Skipping the configuration steps saves a great deal of time and frustration.
The ease of use of a managed host but with knowledgeable, fast and efficient support and the flexibility to get close to dedicated hosting capabilities and options.
I honestly cannot say there is anything I dislike.
Web hosting for small to medium sized business clients.
The user interface on Cloudways is very easy to use. I needed to extend the php maximum execution time for my website and this was very easy to do.
Nothing, I did not have any problems setting up the system. How to videos were useful.
Cloudways saves me the expense of dedicated hosting.
Versatility of server configuration. Easy of SSL deployment. Development and site speed.
They may need to consider adding email hosting in the future
Web site speed and scaling options.
The support is probably the best thing about Cloudways. I was one of their beta users back in 2014 and have been using them ever since. Their 24/7 support chat is fast, responsive and solves my problems very quickly. The interface is also so good that it makes my life so much easier
They only support the PHP stack. That's a major drawback because there are a lot of solutions and customers that will want to use Node or Python and it's a pain to manage multiple providers for them. So if the customer requires something outside of PHP, I don't end up using them
The server administration is so much easier and simple to do without having to SSH into each server. Also the entire stack is optimised as a single integrated stack.
: I migrated to Cloudways from another leader in the industry. I really like Cloudways pricing structure, its absolutely wonderful. The really like the ability to add cores or space is extremely helpful as well. Love love cloudways!
I dislike the lack of a cpanel, that really took some getting used to as well as not having control over my email accounts.
I migrated 2 sites over to cloudways. One was 16g! No issues, sites came right up using https.
Simplicity, performance and easy of use. Prices are great also!
Downsizing a server is possible but a bit tricky and not as clean as everything else
Hosting wordpress sites with quality easily
Easy. Very very easy to use, setup and maintain apps. My favourite feature would be the 2 step setup and your Github repo can be pulled. Sure beats writing a bunch of terminal commands! My next favourite feature would be the extremely easy setup of a stating/production environments.
Only thing I'm missing is the ability to auto pull from Git once a new commit to the master branch has been made.
Uptime and reliability. Our company develops applications mostly in Laravel. Cloudways provided an out-the -box Laravel setup. It's nearly impossible to host Laravel applications on our managed or shared dedicated servers we previously used.
The migration tools its very awesome, you can migrate your site on the fly without having any issues. Monitoring tools that been use in cloudways its very effective
Development on the new software examples the SQL/PHP usually delay in the rollout plan.
Im migrating from the shared hosting to Cloudways. Its give me better speed and easy to manage without doing more configuration or customized my server.
Server literally works out of the box and works smoothly. Any questions I have are answered quickly and professionally.
There is not much to dislike. Of course, answers could be faster but again I am currently on smaller server option where answers are within a timeframe that represents option I am using and I had experience with the different company that used to answer much faster but their answers were often not valid while cloudways answers with detailed explanation.
We are quickly expanding company and we were looking for managed hosting that will provide us with out of the box good service with possibility to update and customize and cloudways seem to fit right in.
Cloudways provides a quality control panel for a VPS/cloud server, premium proactive support, and a fast, optimized WordPress platform for a reasonable price. CloudWays installs and configures a performant stack, including Nginx reverse proxy in front of Apache, PHP 7.2 FPM (latest in 2018), Varnish, Redis, and Memcached. Even though I chose the smallest DigitalOcean server plan through Cloudways, my client's eCommerce WordPress site works really fast in my experience.
It is hard to find a reasonable complaint at this point. On the contrary, their willing and proactive support, no-root-access sFTP/SSH, and a GUI for managing the server, makes it easier to hand over server management to the client, if needed.
Cloudways manages the VPS/cloud hosting for my client's eCommerce website.
Cloudways is the best managed cloud hosting service that offers me the stress-free hosting experience so that I could focus on my blogs' growth. I have 3 blogs hosted on Cloudways and didn't have any bitter experience till now. I'm completely satified with the cloud server service with flexible and scalable features. I can see the organic ranking improvements with the great uptime, security and speed and hence I would like to recommed this managed cloud platform for the digital enthusiasts.
A free domain should be available so that we can avoid relying on the third-party domain registers to purchase the domain. Also, CDN feature should be offered for Free. Likewise, the email accounts can be offered for no cost. Otherwise, everything is fine. The company should consider adding these features for their beloved customers like me.
My blogs are loading fast and perform well in search engines. Besides, the security features are good. Out of all, the customer support is great and knowledgeble. Another important benefits is, my blogs are 100% up so that it enhances my reputation among the readers and the search eigines. The pricing plans are affordable and more convenient to pay montly . No yearly renewal headaches and it is the key advantage of Cloudways.
Cloudways is cheap and affordable, there are plans starting at just $5 as well as much other pay as you go options which are great for different users and gives them the freedom to choose according to their need. the support is excellent, i had several issues on the service and they sorted out every one of them. the service is active 24/7 and replies almost instantaneously and executives know what they are saying. the servers are really awesome, for a newbie it gives wide flexibility to choose from a wide range of industry-leading cloud service providers as well a huge range of scripts to install on them. the setup is really simple and you can deploy servers with few clicks. another great thing is the free trial option which doesn't need any billing information for you to get started and allows you to try their service for a few days. I basically started out with the free trial and i have to say i'm more than impressed by them.
the email service cost extra when most of the services give this feature for free. there is no option to register domains so you have to register it elsewhere and update nameservers to work with cloudways,
hosting my website in the cloud servers. i have to say this is one of the best services in the cloud hosting industry,
Starts from the pricing its self Cloudways is great. they offer so many choices that you could find a package that best suits your need. its one of the most affordable cloud platforms available. the free trial provided them is great so that you can try their platform without paying anything. The best part of Cloudways is their support, they are always online and reply instantly to your queries.they also offer SSH access that most cloud hosting platform does not offer. The setup and one-click Installations are also great that you don't have to sweat much to launch your server. The performance of the Servers is really good that my website was up almost all the time.
the plans and interface are a bit confusing in the beginning that a newbie to hosting can find it difficult to find whats best for them. another problem with cloudways is the lack of supported applications, they mainly offer only PHP based Scripts.i also had trouble with my Database when I tried to add SSL socket to my website which was resolved later.
