Great static hosting with very generous free tier

  • April 13, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Free static site hosting with free custom domains and HTTPS support. They even give you free continuous builds and deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found anything about Netlify that I don't like so far. Keep in mind that it is for static sites only - though they just recently started supporting lambda functions as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I host most of my personal and business sites on Netlify because it is so easy to use. It has features that some other free static site hosts lack, such as custom redirect and HTTP header support.

Netlify - great step up from AWS S3 + CloudFront

  • March 19, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mainly the ease of getting started and the ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing model, specifically I don't think the pricing should be user based.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy hosting for DNS and websites.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd definitely give them a try. They have a free account, so there isn't much of a reason not to. They have a very nice DNS management that beats the DNS provided by your Domain registrar. Additionally, they site hosting capabilities can be connected to your Git repository. This is really nice.

One of the easiest way to deploy a website

What do you like best about the product?
Since I started using Github Pages I've been looking for other services to deploy static websites and Netlify is one of the best products I've found. Super easy to setup (and I don't have technical background) and their free tier is awesome. I've used Netlify for a personal project and at work as well. I needed to create a simple website to manage some content and serve as Landing Page for an event and in one morning I could make it available for the public to access. Awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I missed was a way to automatically deploy and update the website whenever I made a change. But it might be something I was missing and didn't not know how to configure. I had to run a command to deploy it, not sure there was another way to do it. It was a problema because the other people on our team didn't not know how to do it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a small marketing team and we were on a short budget so we had to find a way to launch some landing pages and manage some content without spending too much. Netlify was perfect because I just needed to create a simple template using bootstrap, attaching to it a form from our marketing automation software and publish it on Netlify. It was flexible enough because I could use my own templates and I could use their free tier to do it. Great for a team that is short in budget.

Great hosting for static sites - the hype is justified!

What do you like best about the product?
Great features for deploying static sites either directly from a codebase or via a build pipeline. The added features for authentication, user accounts and more put Netlify almost in league of their own.
The company have also made it extremely simple to use most of their services, something which so many get wrong in over complicating their UIs and documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
The services for more complex database driven websites are somewhat limited, so the hosting isn’t suitable for all kinds of websites and applications. Having said this, they don’t pretend to be and label themselves as being suitable for static sites (plus some integrated dynamic solutions).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I am using Netlify as a single business owner/user, I am able to host a website for free with full access to their full-suite of offerings. Their free tier is incredibly good value, and will definitely lead to paid use in the future.
