Litespeed: the Game Changer for Speed Oriented Devs
What do you like best about the product?
I personally use litespeed for both dedicated and VPS installs usually without any 3rd party interface like WHM.
The improvements in page load times and response times for the aps are great and I find it flexible enough even from a power user's perspective.
For Magento and WordPress it does wonders and switching to it was the best advice I could give to my clients.

What do you dislike about the product?
Multi threading would be a plus if it would be included in the lower licenses because even on smaller VPSs these days there is enough room for at least two processes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem I fixed is page load times that reflect into the Google ranking and conversions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just go for it and start using it. You'll fall in love with the results before the two week trial ends.
Great product for the entry point
What do you like best about the product?
The way with which the developers constantly update and maintain the product, as well as fast responses to any technical queries.
The fact that it is free to use (openlitespeed) is an excellent proposition as well as it easily exceeds even the paid cPanel solution in terms of functionality.

What do you dislike about the product?
It feels somewhat clunky under the hood which means it does not inspire confidence when hosting 100+ websites. The team are working on this though and I do see improvement here in my 2 years usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drastically less physical server resources required. This means it is easier to set up hosting servers for client projects that are more performant at less cost.
Happy, wish they'd have more promotions/a slightly cheaper license
What do you like best about the product?
Performance, the speed is fantastic and out of the box LiteSpeed works a treat, which is great. It's a direct replacement for Apache which makes it super easy to install and configure alongside cPanel. So much so that we run LiteSpeed across our entire fleet, which covers over 100 servers, ranging from low spec machines to top spec ones. We also suggest and recommend LiteSpeed to many of our customers on a day to day basis to allow them to ensure their servers are performing optimally.
What do you dislike about the product?
Caching - LiteSpeed cache is great... but it's immediate out of the box coverage for things like WordPress and Joomla isn't ideal. I'd prefer for it to have a WordPress mode for our novice customers, that'd make it much more user friendly for them and easier to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The only issue we're seeing is customers being able to follow the caching guides and information, it's very complex for them. It's only on the UI side that I personally see complaints or problems from customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have a smaller to medium server, LiteSpeed rolling out can save you the cost of upgrading RAM and CPU also as it severely reduces the load on the server when configured correctly. I'd opt for LiteSpeed over a CPU/RAM upgrade on busy servers.
Best server for holding large requests in low resources
What do you like best about the product?
I am using litespeed for past 2 years. It handles more than double request on same server on which i was using apache.
I am hosting 1 Django website and 2 wordpress website on same $15 server. One of my website got 400k+ views per month and never feels downtime.
The Thing i like most is simple user interface provided by litespeed webserver. As a Web Developer, when i choose Apache or Nginx, i have to change the server configuration files manually. But with litespeed, we can simply configure the new website by web interface.
As i am also using wordpress on litespeed server. There is an official cache plugin called Litespeed Cache in WordPress repository.
This plugins has all the settings which includes in premium plugins like wp-rocket, and the fun part is it is free.
Static file handling of litespeed is best. It has inbuilt Gzip and Brotli compression which compressed the header size dynamically result in less response time.
Litespeed server supports http2 and http3/quic out of the box. Which allows us to send files concurrently. So that page load faster.
You can install latest version of PHP directly from dashboard.

What do you dislike about the product?
The guide to configure different frameworks are bit old and not too the point. It will be better to have a video guide to deploy Django, React and other web frameworks.

Easy Deployment
In built Gzip/Brotli Compression

Used a dedicated litespeed webserver to host an online school website
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the heigh performance of the php execution. I liked the ESI cache feature for wordpress.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's no real downside. It's just much better than apache server. For the litespeed cache plugin for wordpress there's few bad things related to page optimization, js and css minification. And i would like to see ESI working with multitag shortcodes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a real performance problem when we were using apache server. That it was taking about 4 s to generate the pgae. Now it take 2s. And using litespeed cache it takes nothing.
The Best Web Server on the market
What do you like best about the product?
Litespeed web server has severely increased the speed of all the Wordpress and other CMS sites hosted on our servers and while doing so it even reduced overall load on our servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at this stage, I am honestly very happy with this product and excited to see what they bring out next
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting the most out of your existing infrastructure
Amazing service!
What do you like best about the product?
Incredible fast loading speeds that provide a massive boost to very slow eCommerce platforms such as Magento 2. When cached I have yet to see any faster load times with other caching and server combinations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would appreciate more control over what is and isn't cached / purged etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using LiteSpeed Web server to fuel all of our clients websites both Magento and Wordpress. Since discovering the technology we have stopped using anything else. We use this consistently because it provides fastest load times period.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great.
