Render, an excellent option for developers and businesses

  • October 07, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Render is amazing, it's a cloud plataform that makes it easy to build, distribute, and run any application or site. Whether you need static pages, a dynamic web, a database, or a custom Dockerfile, Render has everything you need. Render offers free TLS certificates, global CDN, DDoS security, private systems, and Git automatic deployment.

What I love about Render is that it simplifies server, infrastructure, and container management. You can focus on your code and let Render do the rest. Render too offers a assortment of free levels and reasonable plans to suit your needs.

Also, what I like most approximately Render is that it contains a exhaustive documentation and user-friendly interface. You can effectively review your controls, access logs, design configurations, and troubleshoot issues. You can also find support guides, tutorials, and examples.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Render seems to be making progress as there are some highlights that are still in beta or being improved. However, features such as WebSockets and serverless features are not fully supported. Additionally, some customers may prefer greater customization and control over management, such as the use of SSH or custom namespaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Render is profiting me by giving a helpful and powerful way to host my web projects. I can center on building my applications and websites without stressing around the foundation or the taken a toll. I can too collaborate with other designers and share my work with the world. Render may be a great choice for anybody who needs to form and run web applications and websites within the cloud.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy cloud solution for your servers. GitHub integration and automatical updates, auto-scaling, cheapest plans and perfect support. Docker or Git - it doesn't matter - the services works perfect. Support Go, NodeJS, partically PHP and other products from the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
What is missing is the easy deployment of any PHP applications, as was done with Node solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast servers instance creation from git, cheapest cloud services and auto-scaling, fully support of different backend languages and databases. We can update our repository on the git - and after 4 minutes - it's online!

Best Free Hosting for Nodejs

  • March 02, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's free to develop and deploy many other services (like Node js) and can be integrated to provide one click CICD setup with VCS like GitHub
What do you dislike about the product?
Its free tier is terribly slow in both in case of deployment and in case of server start time after the server is moved to sleep state.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves many problems regarding the deployment process like to setup CICD, and also provides a free development server so that we don't have to pay from day one for our new projects

Simplify Your App and Website Deployments with Render's Cloud Platform

  • February 15, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Enjoy quick and easy scalability with Render, which allows you to adjust your application resources on the fly without the need for manual server management or infrastructure upkeep.
Protect your application from unauthorized access with Render's security features, which include free SSL certificates and private networking options.
Keep costs low while still getting powerful cloud deployment features with Render, which offers competitive pricing and a variety of free services to help make deploying your web apps and sites more affordable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Render's limited language support may pose an issue for developers who favor languages other than Node.js, Python, Ruby, or Go. Although Render's built-in services can be time-saving, they may not offer the flexibility and customization options provided by third-party services, which may be a drawback if your application has unique requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Render is tackling the challenge of simplifying the deployment and management of web applications and websites in the cloud for both developers and teams. It achieves this by offering a user-friendly interface that allows developers to sidestep the complexities of setting up infrastructure, configuring servers, and managing network security, tasks that can be time-consuming and require a high degree of technical proficiency. By using Render, developers can concentrate on developing their applications while the platform handles the infrastructure and server management for them.

Super powerful PaaS

  • January 24, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Render gives us peace of mind running our API backends. Basically, Render started where Heroku stopped. So you get many required features, to name a few:
* Infrastructure-as-service via a yaml file
* Auto-scale web services by CPU/RAM. In contrast to Heroku where it's made by P99/P95 latency. I can’t stress enough how better and correct is Render's auto-scale by CPU/RAM is. It's super fast and responsive, saves us big $$$ and quick to handle traffic spikes.
* env var groups so you would not repeat yourself defining the same envs multiple times.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some missing features in REST endpoint.
More regions support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
worry-free backend APIs

Powerfull and easy to use

  • November 14, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Probably the simplest PaaS on the market that I have tested.
I tested Virtuozzo, Heroku, AWS, ... but nothing satisfied me for a decent cost. Render ticks all the boxes.
The high availability, the security, the community and the low price convinced me to use it in production and I don't regret it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have only been using it for a short time, but I haven't found any major flaws yet.
I miss for the moment a maintenance mode to disable my website with a custom page
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can focus on the code. Render manages all the complexity of the release and the infrastructure.
I can roll back if a release doesn't work well, the server restarts automatically if an error occurs... I can go home with a clear head

Unclear charges.

  • November 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Others find it good, so I guess it might be, but it's not for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
They need to fix the pricing descriptions. I had one failed deployment that in Google Cloud and Azure is not charged, but was charged in Render.com. Also the pricing says 90 days free PostgreSQL, but was charged at the end of the first month. Also github integration was taking too long to be completed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Instant deployment

Render was a breeze to set up and seems like great alternative to Heroku so far

  • October 28, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- super easy setup with Github integration
- team seems invested for the long haul and responsive to user feedback
What do you dislike about the product?
I really wish cron jobs weren't billed separately! But I get it...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I need an easy way to host my app and Render is helping me do that with the least possible headache

Incredible price effective heroku alternative

  • September 30, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the access to private disks that are not available in Heroku, as well as a Signapore region closer to my customers. Heroku only has Europe and NA.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of 24/7 support, and slow reply on the community forums, lack of support in comparison since it is relatively new
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saving my business money on hosting per month. Allowing closer regions to host for my customers.

Render is very easy to use, trustworthy and scalable.

  • September 27, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, especially with deployments & scalability. I can put autoscaling on or optionally scale instances myself from the service settings. Variety of potential services has also proven useful (private services, background workers, cronjobs etc)
What do you dislike about the product?
As of writing this review, render's PostgreSQL's high availability mode is missing, but I understand it's currently under work. You can deploy a follower node, but it doesn't have automatic failover.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Render is a modern Heroku alternative. It makes reliable deployments & hosting available for everybody. I can personally spend more time coding the product rather than spend time with deployment & hosting.
