Best execution of cloud static hosting
What do you like best about the product?
I was able to run numerous small projects without additional cost and global cdn deployment cannot be easier than Netlify.
What do you dislike about the product?
Other than static serving, dynamic processing (server functions) is kinda tricky. Compared to now.sh, it’s little bit difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are a lot of times when small, https-protected mini-websites/services are needed while doing business. Netlify solves that niche area and also, great for small, personal projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is the best kind of service but in a very niche area.
Free and simple hosting for static sites
What do you like best about the product?
My personal portfolio site is simple enough that I don't really want to pay for hosting. Netlify works great for this, I'm able to upload a zip folder with an index.html file inside and it is instantly online. I can also choose to connect a custom domain for free, which is great for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not able to push updates by uploading a ZIP folder from my phone. The only way you can do it is by dragging the folder, which I can't do from my phone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to push updates to static websites at an unprecedented scale (either by the web upload or by automatic deploys through GitHub).
I have so many great things to say about this company.
What do you like best about the product?
You get a lot ( A LOT) just out of the free plan. The connection between developer tools is seamless. Connecting your custom domain and getting sub-domains takes less than 5 minutes to set up. I could launch a website with Netlify faster than you can make a cup of coffee. Netlify forms is a blessing and being able to create links for each branch... ummm that's unbelievable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only because I have a strong design background, I do with the UI was a tad better. That's only me being picky. Otherwise this product is so good. Nothing to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
TIME SAVER! I no longer have to spend an entire week working on devOps stuff. This really gives your developers super powers. Front End Developers are becoming more and more powerful with tools like these. I get prototypes shipped a lot faster and I actually enjoy my job when I get to work with Netlify.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Let your developers use Netlify. They will be so much happier and you will get to see updates a lot faster. You can actually set up a live prod environment when building, so reduce room for error. It seriously the best.
Great static hosting with very generous free tier
What do you like best about the product?
Free static site hosting with free custom domains and HTTPS support. They even give you free continuous builds and deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found anything about Netlify that I don't like so far. Keep in mind that it is for static sites only - though they just recently started supporting lambda functions as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I host most of my personal and business sites on Netlify because it is so easy to use. It has features that some other free static site hosts lack, such as custom redirect and HTTP header support.
Netlify - great step up from AWS S3 + CloudFront
What do you like best about the product?
Mainly the ease of getting started and the ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing model, specifically I don't think the pricing should be user based.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy hosting for DNS and websites.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd definitely give them a try. They have a free account, so there isn't much of a reason not to. They have a very nice DNS management that beats the DNS provided by your Domain registrar. Additionally, they site hosting capabilities can be connected to your Git repository. This is really nice.
Great way to deploy a static site

Continuous deployment

What do you dislike about the product?
A little finicky about file names.
That's about it.
That's about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making our static website extra fast. Ease of deployment, both, production and staging.
One of the easiest way to deploy a website
What do you like best about the product?
Since I started using Github Pages I've been looking for other services to deploy static websites and Netlify is one of the best products I've found. Super easy to setup (and I don't have technical background) and their free tier is awesome. I've used Netlify for a personal project and at work as well. I needed to create a simple website to manage some content and serve as Landing Page for an event and in one morning I could make it available for the public to access. Awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I missed was a way to automatically deploy and update the website whenever I made a change. But it might be something I was missing and didn't not know how to configure. I had to run a command to deploy it, not sure there was another way to do it. It was a problema because the other people on our team didn't not know how to do it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a small marketing team and we were on a short budget so we had to find a way to launch some landing pages and manage some content without spending too much. Netlify was perfect because I just needed to create a simple template using bootstrap, attaching to it a form from our marketing automation software and publish it on Netlify. It was flexible enough because I could use my own templates and I could use their free tier to do it. Great for a team that is short in budget.
Great hosting for static sites - the hype is justified!
What do you like best about the product?
Great features for deploying static sites either directly from a codebase or via a build pipeline. The added features for authentication, user accounts and more put Netlify almost in league of their own.
The company have also made it extremely simple to use most of their services, something which so many get wrong in over complicating their UIs and documentation.

What do you dislike about the product?
The services for more complex database driven websites are somewhat limited, so the hosting isn’t suitable for all kinds of websites and applications. Having said this, they don’t pretend to be and label themselves as being suitable for static sites (plus some integrated dynamic solutions).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I am using Netlify as a single business owner/user, I am able to host a website for free with full access to their full-suite of offerings. Their free tier is incredibly good value, and will definitely lead to paid use in the future.
