juliet Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Does anyone have experience hosting with google cloud? I would love to hear thoughts on that. (I hear it is less expensive than dedicated servers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I cannot comment on Google Cloud directly, as I have not hosted with them. I have however a lot of experience with both DigitalOcean and AWS (Amazon Web Services). Cloud hosting can be cheaper, as you have more control over what you use, and how you use it. It does require you to know when you need more or less though and adjust accordingly. If you are comfortable with a server environment, cloud providers (google, aws, digitalocean) are perfect. If you are not comfortable with those type of environments (dealing with server maintenance and such) - I would stick with classic hosting, or vps/dedicated options for ease of management.

juliet Posted August 1, 2017 Author Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) I decided against it. Further research disappointed me. It is pretty much self managed, without any tools. They dont offer whm/cpanel, you have to install that yourself and pay for your own licenses (no thanks) And they dont offer tech support unless you pay for it separately. And the least expensive tier response time is 4 four hours (no thanks) So yeah. Not for me. Edited August 1, 2017 by juliet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
