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.

Has supported responsive design efficiently but offers limited customization options
The editor is effective, especially when fixing resolutions for desktop, mobile, and tablet. The interface is not complicated. We have its own editor to design websites. We don't need to work separately for tablet and mobile since we can set and organize screen resolutions there. Basic features can be grasped in a couple of hours because it's CMS-based with all tools readily available. For simple designing, HTML coding isn't necessary as it uses drag and drop features. For example, when adding images, we can select the image tool and insert it. For custom integrations such as Klaviyo, we can simply insert the embed code tool and insert our code.

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 of Vercel is the custom domain."
"Vercel is easy to deploy; we don't have to set up any servers or something like that, we just have to configure the server in Vercel and it takes care of it."
"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."
"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 the fastest deployer, and if you deploy your site, it won't have any issues."
"It is easy to learn. If you want to deploy your site, it's easy to do."
"Vercel is an easy-to-use platform, and we can easily deploy the app."
"Basic features can be grasped in a couple of hours because it's CMS-based with all tools readily available."
"I found everything okay in Wix, and it's easy to create a website."
"The return on investment with Wix is excellent because hosting a website costs around 4,000 to 5,000 Indian Rupees, equivalent to $50 a year, I have access to all tools and functionalities, and I can generate as much sales as I want through Wix."
"Wix has actually reduced my time in developing or delivering a website to the client, so I can have more clients in the pipeline."
"I like the solution's responsiveness, usability, and user interface."
"The biggest advantages are that it is inexpensive and very easy to use, which means I can spend less time building the website and more time working."
 

Cons

"I've faced a lot of issues with Vercel. One thing is that it is a little bit slow."
"Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences."
"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."
"I have seen a bottleneck in Vercel regarding socket servers. According to their documentation, Vercel doesn't support WebSocket. While Vercel is great for creating a cloud application, if you need socket operations, the current platform won't accommodate that. I would like the Vercel team to add this feature."
"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."
"The product's build time needs enhancement. It currently takes up to four minutes to build my projects for every deployment, which is lengthy."
"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."
"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."
"There are a few bugs where what it says it will show on the phone versus the laptop does not always match."
"The Wix editor can sometimes be glitched or buggy and requires a significant amount of memory on my computer."
"The solution’s scalability can be improved."
"Wix is quite slow. When I use Wix, it's a bit slower than Shopify."
"When it comes to drag and drop, it sometimes creates problems when the size is not compatible."
"Wix has drawbacks regarding website optimization and speed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing depends on the size of the project."
"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."
"Vercel is a bit costlier than other solutions like AWS."
"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."
"The solution is expensive for React projects."
"Vercel is basically free. It's free of cost for new developers."
"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."
"Wix is an affordable solution."
