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."
"I think the speed of the tool is good."
"The solution's most valuable features are its response time and performance."
"Vercel is a good platform for deployment of websites."
"It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools."
"Therefore, I chose Vercel for its convenience, ease of integration, and instant deployment capabilities."
"Vercel is easy to use and not as complex as AWS."
"I like Vercel the most for its ease of use, especially with Next.js. Its UI is user-friendly, and the solution is easy to learn. I was a beginner when I created my portfolio website with the tool."
"I like most that whatever you make in GitHub is directly linked, it does CI/CD, continuous integration and continuous deployment, and whatever changes you make in GitHub and commit will be reflected in that website, making it very easy for anyone to use."
 

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."
"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)."
"Vercel fails to provide a database to its users, making it in an area where improvements are required."
"The product's build time needs enhancement. It currently takes up to four minutes to build my projects for every deployment, which is lengthy."
"Initially, Vercel was great for hosting projects built with frameworks like Next.js or React.js, with NPM or Node.js as the backend. Now, they seem to be expanding into offering templates and ready-made front-end and back-end setups, making it possible to host a website without writing any code. Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences. Code is essential, and moving towards more user-friendly, code-free tools might limit deeper development possibilities."
"Vercel does have certain limitations regarding the app's size and scalability."
"I've been using the solution for a while now, and while I haven't encountered major issues, there is room for improvement. The main problem I've noticed is with the error logs. They often lack information and only indicate that a file is missing without specifying the actual cause of the error. This makes troubleshooting difficult, as running the app locally might show the error in the console, but on Vercel, it just crashes without providing useful details."
"There is room for improvement in terms of error logging. It has some bugs."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is a little more costly than other solutions but their technical support is better."
"Vercel is basically free. It's free of cost for new developers."
"The tool's billing allows 200 deployments per day, but if you want to do more work with the solution, you can opt for the pro plan offered by the tool."
"It's quite expensive for enterprise use, but it's worth the price."
"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 use the solution's free version."
"The solution's pricing depends on the size of the project."
"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."
"The solution is expensive for React projects."
