“Cloudways needed a different cloud provider in order to reach a larger number of SMBs.”
"An affordable price doesn’t mean the same for less; it means more for the same price. We can afford to have several staging environments and multiple instances with DigitalOcean."
"DigitalOcean's SSD-backed nodes are fast enough to contain our whole stack in one place (5x Rails Apps, 2x Node apps, mysql, redis, memcache, elasticsearch) so we can spin-up and spin-down servers as needed and not break the bank."
“It’s beautiful that technology allows us to do this — bringing this new discipline that we’ve never done before because of these restrictions, which has bred creativity.”
“We soon found out that the service we received from DigitalOcean was the best in terms of stability of the Droplets and the bandwidth, and all of the network that comes out of the data centers. It’s very stable. This is the key point, and that stability has helped us to increase our volume as well.”
“DigitalOcean's swift scalability, excellent support, and competitive pricing made it a no-brainer for us to become partners and stay with DigitalOcean.”
“In 2025, we’re going to expand our enterprise-scale data capabilities. We want to refine how our systems handle even greater volumes of real-time requests and continue to deliver high reliability and low latency responses at scale.”
“DigitalOcean has super fast support. We had somebody even in our Slack helping us. And you don’t normally expect that as a small company.”
“It’s hard to get funding for things like hosting and maintaining technology, so DigitalOcean’s contribution to that part of our business significantly impacts our ability to support girls.”
“We were looking to strengthen our security and compliance requirements while maintaining access to the best hardware. Flexibility was also critical, because we’re growing fast and we need to move quickly.”
“It may be unconventional, but I’d suggest to anyone that starting with a good, reliable setup in the beginning is crucial to accomplishing goals and saving time later. You don’t want to get into a situation where you have a great product but then you have to go back and fix the infrastructure. That just gets harder and harder to do. Plan for scale. It will be more expensive in the beginning but worth it in the end. We are glad we set ourselves up for success with DigitalOcean.”
“Ghost(Pro) was migrated to DigitalOcean to enable on-demand scaling.”
“At the time when we started with DigitalOcean, we were a very small tech team. We wanted a service that could save us time so that we could best use our resources elsewhere. The fact that everything seemed so simple and the support was available immediately was crucial for us.”
"We had to make a choice between consolidating our server resources in DigitalOcean or consolidating them in AWS. And based on our cost modeling, DigitalOcean was the better deal for our workload."
"We were amazed at how easy DigitalOcean is to use and it let us spend more time focused on our product.”
