Ran a web app on Vercel and liked the easy GitHub deploys and dashboard, but worried about the bill when junk traffic hit usage-based pricing, and later moved to a rented VPS.

About two years building client sites on it, mostly Next.js. The developer experience is still the best I've used. Push to GitHub, every branch gets its own preview URL I can send the client, merge and it's live. Pages are fast and downtime has been a non issue.

Built a GitHub plus Cloudflare Pages workflow that is straightforward and publishes a site in under 5 minutes at no extra cost per site.

Self-hosts now but says that, having used Vercel, Heroku and AWS before, Vercel was the cheapest option for the value.

Moved off Netlify because the new credit system charges 15 credits per deploy and traffic, and the site goes dark when credits run out.

Has used Netlify flawlessly for Angular and Flutter sites on the free tier for a year, paying 20 a month for private repos, though support took about 24 hours on a DNS issue.

They pay about $20 a month for Vercel and stay under the included usage, but disabled overages after one month went over and the bill reached around $70.

They used Vercel in an enterprise setting at roughly $250K a year for 20 million MAUs and about 400 billion requests, and said it was worth the money compared with building the infrastructure themselves.

They were banned from Neocities after complaints about their controversial content. They liked how simple it was to use and still had a ZIP of their HTML/CSS files to move elsewhere.

Business site on Vercel loads fast sometimes but most of the time shows site cannot be reached; calls it the worst host used in 20 years.

Switched from GitHub Pages to Cloudflare Pages and says it has been rock solid.
