One-click installation, no setup time, excellent support
I give the solution a nine out of ten. We don't use the solution for any other tech stack. For example, we have a Node.js application, we use Linode for now. But if we have WordPress websites, we use Bluehost or Namecheap. Our organization has ten to twelve developers using the solution. The solution is used occasionally in our organization. If you want to install a new website, or you have to make changes or explore files, not on a daily basis. We currently have no plans to increase usage but it all depends on our client's requirements. Comparatively, Bluehost is more expensive than Namecheap and in regards to speed, they are both hosted outside of my region and seem to be the same. I would recommend the solution because it's easy to use and has a one-click installation, and the technical support team is very good at solving your problems.

A serverless solution with good performance
Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts. The tool should improve its support. The time zone difference causes delays in communication, which can significantly impact production websites and servers. I'd rate the platform itself higher, but they still need improvements. They need to work on their billing system and create more understandable plans that clearly show costs based on bandwidth usage. A major challenge we faced was an unexpectedly high bill of 25 lakhs for one month when we usually pay only one or two lakhs (100,000-200,000 rupees). While they showed the bandwidth usage, we lacked support on optimising or implementing changes to reduce costs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the one-click installation."
"I would recommend the solution because it's easy to use and has a one-click installation, and the technical support team is very good at solving your problems."
"Vercel provides hands-on experience they provide for hosting services. Initially, we started with hosting, and I found it impressive that Vercel identifies even minor issues in your project that might prevent your website from being hosted correctly. For example, if there is a small problem in your front end, Vercel will notify you that your site hasn’t been hosted yet and provide the specific file and line number where the issue is occurring. It is definitely an easy tool to use. It provides clear instructions on how to handle everything, even if you're not very familiar with coding. It has a seamless integration with GitHub. We connected our private repository to Vercel, and it directly indicates any issues with the website whenever we commit code. Even if we've done all the changes and committed to the repo, Vercel lets us know about any flaws that would prevent the website from functioning fully. Once the final commit happens, Vercel gives a green tick, indicating no issues. It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools."
"Vercel is a good platform for deployment of websites."
"Vercel is easy to use, and it has a flexible user interface."
"What I like most about Vercel is that it's easy to set up CI/CD. I can get my site running and sharing with just a few clicks. It automatically builds and deploys new code when I commit to my repository. It provides temporary domains for each deployment, making sharing and previewing changes easy. I get three subdomains under the tool that I can use to share my site. I can easily view logs, too. It's great for starting projects, as I can use it for free as an individual. I find it simple to share repositories and deployments with anyone worldwide."
"The solution's most valuable features are its response time and performance."
"It is pretty stable. I haven't found any bugs."
"The tool is easy to use."
"With Vercel, we reached more than ninety percent performance in website and lazy loading."
 

Cons

"The solution's servers are in the US and Europe, and I would like to have additional servers near my region, in the APJ region so my clients don't experience any latency issues."
"The solution is not very scalable. I would not suggest the solution for scaling Node.js-based applications."
"The tool could have some built-in support for a wide variety of frameworks. I have seen that the tool is majorly biased towards Next.js because it is one of Vercel's products."
"Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences."
"If you're not using Edge Functions, Vercel only allows 20 seconds of streaming from the backend. They should allow more time for backend streaming without Edge Functions. This is one thing that Vercel can improve."
"When it comes to serverless edge functions, Vercel sometimes kind of messes up. If there is one chatbot and 100 users are trying to chat with it at once, it gets messed up, even if it is a small number."
"The product's build time needs enhancement. It currently takes up to four minutes to build my projects for every deployment, which is lengthy."
"In future releases, I would like to see AI-based capabilities in Vercel."
"What I could feel is that it should have some work for when we commit some type of error."
"If I could add a feature to Vercel to make my life easier, I would add a user journey feature for new users. This would guide them with tips on exploring the platform, showing them the routes for deployment and functions they can use. This way, users can understand all the features without upgrading to premium to see their benefits."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is a little more costly than other solutions but their technical support is better."
"As a DevOps person who has to consider the commercial aspects, I find it odd that we must pay $20 per user for each new project under a pro account. That's not what I expected. Additionally, there are charges based on bandwidth usage. We incur additional charges if we go beyond 1 TB or 2 TB. However, we can choose plans based on our specific requirements. So, while the per-project pricing and bandwidth-based charges can add up, we have some flexibility in selecting plans that fit our needs."
"It's quite expensive for enterprise use, but it's worth the price."
"I'm a free user."
"For most use cases requiring a small amount of storage, Vercel has a storage cap. Once you exceed that, they charge a nominal amount. I don’t think the storage is insufficient; you can use it for a long time."
"I haven't paid for the solution yet. You need to pay to invite team members."
"The solution is expensive for React projects."
"I use the solution's free version."
"Most of the product features are free, which is quite advantageous."
