Reddit · r/ProWordPress · 15 days ago

Git-based deployment workflow where updates merge from dev to production is solid for enterprise apps, though adapting to its rigid workflow can be disruptive for agencies.

Reddit · r/webhosting · 20 days ago

Kinsta help is nice and available, but overage charges for bot traffic are out of control and they are looking for a new host.

Reddit · r/webdev · 22 days ago

Rolled out a new PHP update across an entire fleet of hosted sites within half an hour of upstream release.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 22 days ago

Pantheon communicated far better on its status page than WP Engine during the PHP incident.

Several of their sites on Kinsta's London data centre were down for hours while waiting for Kinsta's engineers to explain the outage.

Reddit · r/webhosting · 24 days ago

Briefly tried Kinsta and was unimpressed: the PHP worker limit made an optimized WooCommerce store struggle, and one yearly sales report made the site inaccessible.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 38 days ago

Once lightning fast years ago, the platform has become annoyingly slow alongside longer live chat support wait times.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 51 days ago

They have kept a blog on WordPress.com for over 15 years and also built a site on WordPress.org, saying both serve a purpose.

Support quality dropped sharply from helpful and supportive to bot-like, repetitive, and quick to shift blame onto customers in tickets.

Reddit · r/webhosting · 93 days ago

Has used Kinsta for years and stays for its 24/7 support.

Reddit · r/drupal · 227 days ago

Dashboard access remained unavailable into a second consecutive day of platform outage.

Reddit · r/webhosting · 254 days ago

Reddit · r/webhosting · 259 days ago

Six months of hosting delivered zero downtime under their 100% uptime SLA, useful Automattic agency perks, and first-contact human support resolution after passing the initial AI chat bot.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 273 days ago

Kinsta is a bill happily paid every month with absolutely unmatched support.

They tested WPX and found its performance unimpressive. They benchmarked it against another host and ended up choosing that one.

Reddit · r/Hosting · 373 days ago

An agency hosts all its clients' WordPress sites on Pressable and has been very happy with it.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 374 days ago

Reddit · r/webhosting · 409 days ago

Five years on Kinsta for nonprofit clients: amazing support and zero outages across 50+ websites apart from one Cloudflare-related incident.

Rocket.net support was very helpful but it could not properly run an EDD-powered site, with session and speed issues.

Reddit · r/ProWordPress · 478 days ago

After 15 years leaving WP Engine over a massive drop in support quality outside the top tiers, aggressive upselling and junk-server quarantines.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 480 days ago

They use Flywheel for a lot of client sites because the client can own the account while they manage it and add their own markup to the provider charges.

Reddit · r/Wordpress · 483 days ago

Has used Kinsta for years. Expressed as a plain personal opinion about the hosting provider in a thread about WP Engine alternatives.
