Pantheon Dashboard Pros and Cons
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of pushing and pulling data between environments
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike some of the opinionated server constraints such as not offering a tool to manage databases or to setup server cron processes. Also having no control over script timeouts is frustrating for certain functionality I've written. Caching on development environment is totally unnecessary for me and consistently a pain point
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Site security seems to be improved. Not needing to mess around with SSL is nice. Backups are also hands off now when compared to other setups I've used which is good.
Pantheon is a great platform and I would definitely recommend it to friends and colleagues.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to move the database and files between different environments. I also like creating multi-dev environments. Taking backups is also easy. Support is great too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Creating a multi-dev sometimes takes longer than expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Pantheon to host client websites. It is beneficial to have dev, test, and live environments. Also, having the ability to create multi-dev environments is also great.
Love Pantheon
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of using the dashboard and localdev app. Makes developing and pushing changes so easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Losing some of the manual control fo a site. In some ways, this can still be a good thing!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps small dev team manage Drupal easier. Making it all ourselves was going to be very difficult and take lots of time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In terms of Drupal, you will still need to know a good amount on how everything works. But Pantheon makes things so much easier on you. Managing the workflow without Pantheon will require lots of time and skill to master. Love their service!
Well designed platform and workflow well optimized for Wordpress
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is well optimized for Wordpress hosting in particular. They have a well designed workflow that strongly encourages you to do the right thing and avoid common mistakes. NewRelic integration is a major benefit. Support has been good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing options might not be ideal for other circumstances but it has worked well for us. Some confusion around the "Pantheon for agencies" model and how it differs from the base offering.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reliable hosting of a Wordpress site without having to design a custom solution. Included NewRelic monitoring has been very beneficial.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Excellent option if you are hosting a Wordpress site. Very easy to get up and going, very easy to maintain going forward.
Good hosting platform but with some interesting quirks
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to make updates and test them as well as copying sites down for testing and development without having to touch the live site. Pantheon makes it really easy to deploy updates and making modifications to sites without having to worry that the live site may break.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I run into issues with the dashboard not acknowledging that code has been deployed or logging me out seemingly at random while I'm logged into the dashboard. Often we will deploy a change to an environment, but the dashboard will only acknowledge it once we've cleared our browser cache and reloading the dashboard, sometimes multiple times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easily deploying new sites, copying live sites for development and testing, and keeping everything in segregated environments to prevent site breaking issues from making it to the live site.
A mediocre service
What do you like best about the product?
It was easy to get your site up but it was tough to even do the most basic updates. Their dev and live versions are also a bit complex
What do you dislike about the product?
Painfully slow, bad customer service and the support takes forever to really be useful to someone who needs a quick fix. I would recommend godaddy or even squarespace if you're a small business who is not very tech savy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted a place to host our website for a short term period where analytics could be seen and clean content could be posted. We stayed with them for 3 years and definitely have had many security issues with them. Benefits is that it has pretty good documentation and you can edit your website pretty quickly
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would look a look at SquareSpace if you're a small business and want to set up a beautiful website with great documentation. If you're more tech savvy and are okay with doing all support work yourself, sure use pantheon
Excellent service, tailored to the needs of developers
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Pantheon for numerous projects of all sizes, nearly since their founding. The platform is well architected with developers in mind allowing for a wide range of specialized workflows, integration with CI, and the like. They also have an excellent community where developers can help each other with significant involvement from the Pantheon team themselves. They're actively engaged in the Drupal and Wordpress communities and are committed to providing great service in general and an excellent developer experience specifically.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pantheon can be somewhat pricey, especially for smaller sites for nonprofits and the like. It's very hard to justify a $50/month hosting fee to a group who'll likely only very rarely have code updates to their site even though Pantheon is better than anyone else out there. Additionally, for smaller organizations like that, the development workflow can be burdensome and, without technical expertise on hand to manage, difficult to implement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most of the projects I work on involve multiple developers using git-flow or similar and some form of continuous integration. Pantheon supports this workflow very effectively, and the multidev feature in particular is a godsend on large, fast-moving projects.
Great hosting provides for the WordPress and Drupal websites
What do you like best about the product?
All the services which are provided by the Pantheon
What do you dislike about the product?
As of now I never felt dislike with any services provided by the Pantheon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to get proper domains and with proper SSL's.
The filesystem is really good and they are providing different environments to work on the development tasks.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pantheon is the best hosting for Drupal and WordPress websites, Anyone can blindly opt for the Pantheon
Great for multiple site management
What do you like best about the product?
Pantheon's dashboard make it really easy to manage multiple sites and spin up new sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if they supported hosting sites outside of Drupal and Wordpress.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It really easy to spin up new sites assign developers to specific sites and roll out patches or updates. I really appreciate the Multidev environment which has helped boost productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Pantheon to anyone managing multiple sites in either Drupal or Wordpress.
Great UI and Maintainability
What do you like best about the product?
Easy Back-up management for Client Sites
What do you dislike about the product?
Upstream not syncing on Drupal 8 w/ Core
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping us organize our client sites and stationing them all on Pantheon
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Pantheon is doing great for it's customers
