19 WordPress VIP Testimonials

“After we stabilized the code we wanted for the common theme (about a month of work), we were able to roll out 60 live sites with WordPress.com VIP in 3 weeks.”

"This was one of our smoothest and most successful launches to date. Everyone who reviewed the site – both before and after launch – commented on the exceptional quality. This was down to an incredible effort led by you all, with a focus and dedication that was a joy to be involved in."

“My instructions to them were that they had to keep the logo because we weren’t going to redesign the logo, and the color red because that was the Post color, but everything else was negotiable.”

“With Gutenberg, we were able to publish a breaking news story in two minutes versus five minutes in Classic [WordPress]. The main reason for this is the reusable blocks which have been renamed ‘The Game Changer.’ ”

“We’ve received excellent support, sustained over many months. The level of support has never dipped from our initial architectural discussion...couldn't be more satisfied.”

"Basically it’s like we hired another engineer. Now we have an extra set of eyes that are looking at it from that perspective, so that helps us a lot with availability and performance.”

“Using VIP means that I don’t have to bring in an operations team. My developers don’t have to worry about ‘is the site up or down’, but can focus on creating. VIP does code review, which reassures me that we’re not going to be putting code in that’s going to cause scalability or security problems. Having that second layer of control is a real positive. Frankly, I’d rather have my team focused on being creative and innovative than spending time worrying about architecture.”

“We have enormously improved our efficiency since we don't need additional teams or third parties to support code review or infrastructure. And because we need almost no back end development resources in-house, it’s almost all front end, today we have a smaller development team. We can focus on what matters, which is producing content and generating value. We don’t have to care about servers and backups for example, all of that is covered with VIP.”

“Some of our goals with the migration were to improve workflow efficiencies, empower site producers to make changes with a full preview of their impact, and cut the time it takes to build out a section of the site from days to hours.”

“That’s why I love using WordPress. Broadly, the platform is just so easy to use And it was really easy to train people on how to make simple edits.”

“Everything from understanding how your edge servers and your CDNs work to how your security teams work and your pen testing works—all of it gave me a sense of calmness to say, Okay. We have a partner who can just go handle this."

“By moving to WordPress.com VIP, we were able to not worry about downtime and whenever we push our code up for deployment they run an additional code check to make sure we’re not pushing anything up to production that could potentially be catastrophic. Things like security we no longer have to think about. So this allows our team to focus on building awesome stuff.”

“I can only say that we’ve managed to pull this off spectacularly only because of the support that your team has given us If anything, it would be an understatement to say that we’ve had great and amazing service from you and your team.”

“This powerful combination of content and analytics will push the industry forward at an accelerated pace.”

“Certainly from my perspective, WordPress has been a great success — with WordPress VIP giving us that enterprise-level of assured quality on top.”
