I use the solution to deploy my website.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it helps me deploy my website and offers Advanced Deployment Protection along with Vercel Environment Variables.

Vercel fails to provide a database to its users, making it in an area where improvements are required. With the database, it can be easy to manage the websites. We can add the database, and also we can deploy the websites.

I have been using Vercel for two years. I am a freelancer who uses the tool for my clients.

When reloading or due to any server error, I have not seen any issues when I deploy any website in Vercel. It runs very smoothly.

I have never contacted the technical support for the solution.

The tool's billing allows 200 deployments per day, but if you want to do more work with the solution, you can opt for the pro plan offered by the tool.

The tool is easy to use.

Vercel is a good platform for deployment of websites. The tool allows want to easily manage deployment and branches, specifically the ones in GitHub.

From the product's technical support team, you can get help on how to customize domains and how to manage the branches. We can add the members to the group.

I personally use the product, and I feel that the other solutions in the market do not provide the features that Vercel offers. Vercel is also easy to manage.

I recommend the tool to others.

I rate the tool a nine and a half out of ten.

I have primarily used the product to deploy Next.js applications.

The platform is very user-friendly. It provides continuous integration and continuous deployment capabilities. It allows for direct hosting and application updates from GitLab or GitHub repositories.

The product's build time needs enhancement. It currently takes up to four minutes to build my projects for every deployment, which is lengthy.

I have been using Vercel for approximately four years.

Overall, there have been no significant downtime issues with the platform's services.

I have never had to contact the support team. I have not found it necessary. However, the community support is very strong. Many solutions are available on platforms like Stack Overflow.

The initial setup and deployment process is easy. The platform also offers easy domain name pointing. 

Most of the product features are free, which is quite advantageous.

The product is easy to use. I recommend it to others and rate it an eight out of ten. 

I used Vercel for hosting my website.

The most valuable feature of Vercel is the custom domain. You can change the solution's environment variables. Vercel is easy to use, and it has a flexible user interface. A good feature of Vercel is that we can host our website from GitHub. Other hosting platforms require a project build. Vercel doesn't require a project build but automatically converts our projects.

I encountered an error in Vercel's routing in the React.js projects. To resolve the error, I had to add some keywords and code to my project, which was difficult for me. It would be good if the Vercel dot com is removed from the customized domain.

I have been using Vercel for two years.

I haven’t faced any issues with the solution’s stability.

I have previously used Netlify and GitHub for the front end.

The solution’s initial setup is easy.

The solution is expensive for React projects.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I have used Vercel for my personal products and the company I work for, where we make a lot of SaaS software tools for our clients.

If I am considering deploying my front end, the entire process or the entire deployment cycle is very easy for a full-stack developer or a front-end developer. Let us say that after the deployment, I want to push some updates, then the entire CI/CD pipeline, and everything is handled since the tool's automation is very good.

The tool could have some built-in support for a wide variety of frameworks. I have seen that the tool is majorly biased towards Next.js because it is one of Vercel's products. If Vercel can expand that to many other back-end frameworks as well and maybe somehow delve into the deployment and DevOps for Android and iOS apps, it would be good. I don't know the nuances behind deploying an Android or iOS app, but maybe if Vercel could figure that out, then it would be good. What I have experienced is that even if I coded an Android app, it is kind of very complex and difficult to get it live on the Google Play Store and deal with all the complexities that come with such a platform.

In one of my projects, I was implementing the ChatGPT API to function like a chatbot on a client's website. I saw that the APIs need serverless functions, and these are supposed to be deployed on Vercel. When it comes to serverless edge functions, Vercel sometimes kind of messes up. If there is one chatbot and 100 users are trying to chat with it at once, it gets messed up, even if it is a small number. The above-mentioned area in Vercel could be improved. I know the tool will improve because it covers a lot of space in the front-end development domain.

I have been using Vercel for two to three years. I am a customer of the tool.

In the previous year, there was a time when one of the tool's servers went down. Even on the tool's website, it was showing that if any of the product's servers were down, it was due to a wide outage, and many of the other servers under Vercel were also down at that time. I think the speed of the tool is good. If your front end is deployed on Vercel, the speed is good. The tool's free plan is quite good. The tool offers a lot of features in its free plan. I have deployed my stuff on Vercel for almost two years. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

It is a scalable solution. The tool can handle more than 1,00,000 requests, and I think that is more than enough for a lot of small-scale startups. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I have experience with Netlify and Render.

The product's initial setup phase is very easy. I can go to the tool and sign up or log in with my Google or GitHub, connect my Vercel account to my GitHub account, and then just select the repository we want to deploy. Then, I need to select Next.js, and everything is done. The process is just a kind of one-click deployment and can be managed in five to ten minutes.

If I cross the free version, I have heard from some people that the billing can be expensive. I think it really depends, and it is a very subjective question. I haven't personally experienced the billing plans, so I cannot comment on the pricing part.

For a first-time user or a non-tech person, it will be very easy to deploy the tools you have. If you are running a business and you usually work in your tech team, apart from working with front-end and back-end developers, you will also need two or three people from the DevOps team. What I have personally experienced is that Vercel eliminates the need to have DevOps. If you are not a very big startup and you are doing a small-scale business, then you might not need DevOps people while using Vercel, leading to cost reduction.

I recommend the tool to others.

At my company, I tell my colleagues and other developers to just keep an eye on Vercel because, for most of the full stack work that is being done right now in the SaaS space, 70 percent of people are using Next.js by Vercel. A lot of SaaS in the future is going to be built on Next.js, and it will be deployed on Vercel. It is good if you are familiar with using the tool. The entire ecosystem Vercel is setting up is quite beneficial for the developers.

As Vercel is an expensive product, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

I use Vercel mainly for deploying Node.js and Flutter applications, though it can handle many different types of applications, such as Python and Django. Vercel gives us a serverless deployment flow.

What I like most about Vercel is that it's easy to set up CI/CD. I can get my site running and sharing with just a few clicks. It automatically builds and deploys new code when I commit to my repository. It provides temporary domains for each deployment, making sharing and previewing changes easy. I get three subdomains under the tool that I can use to share my site. I can easily view logs, too. It's great for starting projects, as I can use it for free as an individual. I find it simple to share repositories and deployments with anyone worldwide.

I've been using the solution for a while now, and while I haven't encountered major issues, there is room for improvement. The main problem I've noticed is with the error logs. They often lack information and only indicate that a file is missing without specifying the actual cause of the error. This makes troubleshooting difficult, as running the app locally might show the error in the console, but on Vercel, it just crashes without providing useful details.

I have been using the product for three to four years. 

I haven't got much traffic on the website. Hence, I haven't faced any stability issues. 

I use the documentation, FAWs, YouTube videos, and friends for support. It offers faster resolution.  

I chose Vercel over Heroku because I found Heroku too complex, especially when setting up pipelines and workflows. It used to work fine, but many features became paid. Vercel, on the other hand, is easy. Even someone without coding knowledge can import a repository and make it live. In comparison, other platforms often require some programming knowledge.

The solution's deployment is straightforward. You need to import the remote repository from GitHub or any other source, and then you can deploy the code with two or three clicks.

I haven't paid for the solution yet. You need to pay to invite team members. 

If you asked me whether to use Vercel, I would recommend it. Based on my experience over the past three to four years with both Heroku and Vercel, I can confidently say that Vercel is much simpler. You don't need much technical knowledge; Vercel guides you through the process, making it easy to use.

I rate the overall product an eight out of ten. 

I use the solution for the analytics and deployment of my project. 

I like Vercel because it is very easy to use and deploy. Unlike Firebase, which can be complex to understand, Vercel is straightforward. It also allows you to easily enable analytics, check page speed, and manage SEO meta tags. You can also share the deployment directly. The solution is also beginner-friendly. 

If I could add a feature to Vercel to make my life easier, I would add a user journey feature for new users. This would guide them with tips on exploring the platform, showing them the routes for deployment and functions they can use. This way, users can understand all the features without upgrading to premium to see their benefits.

I have been using the product for two years and eight months. 

I haven't encountered any bugs while using the solution. However, some APIs only worked locally, and they broke down after deployment. This issue has been fixed. 

My company currently uses Firebase for deployment because it uses Google Cloud services. Personally, I use Vercel. I chose Vercel because I was exploring deployment platforms on the Internet and came across a YouTube video and an article about it. After learning about Vercel, I started exploring it and have since deployed many personal projects on it.

The tool's deployment is very easy. 

I rate the solution an eight out of ten. Although Vercel is very user-friendly and easy to understand for deployment, we still haven’t fully explored some features. It would be helpful if Vercel had more guidance or pop-up tips to help users discover and understand all its features.

I mainly use Vercel for React and Next.js projects. We've done all our web hosting for these projects on Vercel. It's a wonderful platform for hosting web applications built with Next.js and React-based frameworks.

I'm also trying to implement Angular projects on Vercel, but I've been facing some issues. For Angular, we're currently using Firebase to host web applications.

One of the great things about Vercel is that we don't need any particular script to deploy our applications. We connect our GitHub repository directly to Vercel. Then, if any push happens in GitHub, we have a script that determines which branch should be deployed to which domain. We can map this according to our requirements.

I like several features of Vercel. First, it's serverless. We've used different services before, such as AWS EC2 instances, Compute Engines, App Engine, and Cloud Run, as serverless. However, their web performance only reached eighty to eighty-five percent. With Vercel, we reached more than ninety percent performance in website and lazy loading.

The Vercel platform performs better and looks better. I also like how it handles loading GIF files and YouTube videos, which we used in one of our websites. We can do all our file binding and code building within the Vercel platform. We don't need to use different tools like S3 bucket or Cloudinary. We use the Vercel platform for binding, lazy loading, and other features. Everything happens inside the platform, which is very convenient.

The tool is very easy to use. It was harder to manage when we used Firebase, App Engine, and Cloud Run. Someone had to be available to handle build and deployment issues. We sometimes needed to change scripts or add credentials in Secret Manager or .env files, and we had to check logs to see what was wrong. The build time was a major advantage with Vercel. For NextGen and ReactGen projects, the build time is minimal. I compared it with App Engine and Cloud Run, and while they took about 15 minutes, Vercel only took 15-20 seconds. The build and deployment happened a fraction of the time, which was a significant benefit.

The platform is very easy to understand, and it's essentially plug-and-play. As a senior DevOps engineer, I've handled GCP and AWS, which require platform-specific knowledge. We've also used Firebase to host Angular projects and static pages, which need scripting for deployment, targeting sites, and ignoring caches like node modules.

With Vercel, none of that extra work is necessary. React, or Next.js developers develop based on the framework requirements, and it's plug-and-play with GitHub. You need to connect the domain. I learned to use it in-house in about two to three hours and could deploy it.

Another advantage is that we can get SSL certificates directly through Vercel. We don't need to purchase separate SSL certificates for HTTPS redirecting.

Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts.

The tool should improve its support. The time zone difference causes delays in communication, which can significantly impact production websites and servers.

I'd rate the platform itself higher, but they still need improvements. They need to work on their billing system and create more understandable plans that clearly show costs based on bandwidth usage.

A major challenge we faced was an unexpectedly high bill of 25 lakhs for one month when we usually pay only one or two lakhs (100,000-200,000 rupees). While they showed the bandwidth usage, we lacked support on optimising or implementing changes to reduce costs.

I have been using the product for a year. 

In the year we've been using Vercel, we haven't had any issues with stability or bugs. We've hosted multiple websites and a WhatsApp platform without problems. We configured the required settings for our major company projects and a public website, which handles data loads in terabytes daily, especially for GIF files.

The only issue we've faced is billing, which is due to RBI guidelines and not under Vercel's or our control. For stability, I'd rate it nine points five to ten out of ten, specifically for NextJS and ReactJS projects. I haven't deployed any Angular projects on Vercel yet, though they're in our pipeline.

We're developing code and improving frameworks based on the Vercel platform. Once that's done, I might deploy Angular projects too. For React, I'd say this is the best platform.

For scalability, I'd rate the tool an eight out of ten based on my experience and deployments. It's a serverless platform, so we haven't had any scalability issues. We can choose the configuration we need and improve bandwidth usage by selecting the appropriate plan. If we need additional bandwidth, we can reach out to the business head or their team to choose the right plan.

I'm giving it an eight because it depends on our main company's public-facing needs. We've never experienced any lagging issues, even when uploading multiple large files like GIFs, panels, and images. Some banners are around ten megabytes, but loading them doesn't take much time. I'd say we've achieved 90 plus percent in performance. We've never felt any performance issues, even with large file uploads and high bandwidth usage.

Our entire development team, especially the front-end developers, uses Vercel. We have around eight to ten front-end developers working with React and Angular. Access to it is necessary for deployment. The CI/CD implementation with Vercel is very easy. We must connect our GitHub to Vercel; CI/CD happens by default. We don't need to schedule webhooks; Vercel handles them on the backend. So, we have eight to ten front-end developers utilizing Vercel in our organization.

I've never contacted Vercel's technical support team, only contacting them about billing issues.

The solution's deployment is straightforward. 

As a DevOps person who has to consider the commercial aspects, I find it odd that we must pay $20 per user for each new project under a pro account. That's not what I expected. Additionally, there are charges based on bandwidth usage. We incur additional charges if we go beyond 1 TB or 2 TB. However, we can choose plans based on our specific requirements. So, while the per-project pricing and bandwidth-based charges can add up, we have some flexibility in selecting plans that fit our needs.

I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. 

I use Vercel to deploy my full-stack websites, including React and Next.js projects, and use AWS for its backend. Vercel provides a free hosting service and a subdomain for the websites you host.

Vercel is a platform that is well-suited for deploying Next.js applications. Next.js is a robust front-end framework built on React.js, known for its excellent SEO capabilities. It supports static page generation and server-side rendering, which helps improve search engine rankings. This optimization is due to Next.js's ability to provide search engines with fully rendered pages. Vercel also provides automatic SSL certificates for your websites, ensuring visitors see a secure connection.

Vercel has introduced a new plan for viewing user analytics. They now offer Vercel Analytics, which allows you to monitor user traffic to your website. 

Previously, even premium members could view analytics longer, but the duration for accessing historical data has been reduced. The ability to view past analytics and tracking data has decreased. Vercel could improve this aspect of its user analytics.

I have been using Vercel for two and a half years.

Vercel does have certain limitations regarding the app's size and scalability. While it is scalable to a certain extent, it might not be the best option for companies with more than 25,000 active users monthly. AWS or other cloud services with more robust scalability options might be more suitable for such companies.

The other platforms I considered for hosting a full-stack website include Heroku and GitHub. Heroku does not offer a free tier; all its plans are paid, which makes it less suitable for hosting personal or passion projects on a budget. GitHub also offers hosting, but its deployment process can be complex due to configuration requirements. 

Therefore, I chose Vercel for its convenience, ease of integration, and instant deployment capabilities. Vercel also allows you to claim free subdomains, such as yourproject.vercel.app, which are available for use.

Vercel is easy to use because it integrates seamlessly with GitHub. Any project with its code hosted on GitHub or any changes made to the GitHub repository are automatically picked up by Vercel. It has an efficient caching mechanism. Vercel then redeploys only the changes without rebuilding the entire site from scratch, making the deployment process fast and efficient. 

Vercel offers multiple pricing models, including Individual and Team. Depending on our requirements, we can choose the plan that best suits our needs. The pricing structure seems reasonable.

If someone encounters the same issue, solutions are often available online. Using a product with a large user base makes it easier to debug or tackle challenges.

They have excellent documentation that helps you get started quickly and easily. You can log in using GitHub, Google, or email, but logging in through GitHub is convenient because it syncs your GitHub repositories with Vercel. Any repository can be imported to Vercel and deployed from there. I recommend checking out their documentation because it is well-written and easy to understand.

Plenty of resources are available online, including videos on how to get started with Vercel. People generally find it quite easy to get started and deploy their projects.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I used Vercel for a SaaS project that provided a one-stop solution for new startups, including opening corporate bank accounts, payroll management, and legal consulting. We built the backend using Next.js, and that's why we hosted it on Vercel. The frontend is also hosted on Vercel. It was a good experience since they offer a lot of client services, including a command line interface (CLI) that you can install using NPM. You can also connect it to GitHub if needed.

In our organization, many people use Vercel. Most repositories and dependencies are hosted on Vercel, including our 3JS projects, due to Vercel's good support for React three fiber and other features. Vercel provides a good amount of storage, even for those without a plan, making it ideal for open source projects. Many libraries and dependencies are hosted on Vercel to showcase to developers, as GitHub’s default hosting isn’t always appropriate.

Vercel provides hands-on experience they provide for hosting services. Initially, we started with hosting, and I found it impressive that Vercel identifies even minor issues in your project that might prevent your website from being hosted correctly. For example, if there is a small problem in your front end, Vercel will notify you that your site hasn’t been hosted yet and provide the specific file and line number where the issue is occurring.

It is definitely an easy tool to use. It provides clear instructions on how to handle everything, even if you're not very familiar with coding. It has a seamless integration with GitHub. We connected our private repository to Vercel, and it directly indicates any issues with the website whenever we commit code. Even if we've done all the changes and committed to the repo, Vercel lets us know about any flaws that would prevent the website from functioning fully. Once the final commit happens, Vercel gives a green tick, indicating no issues. It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools.

Initially, Vercel was great for hosting projects built with frameworks like Next.js or React.js, with NPM or Node.js as the backend. Now, they seem to be expanding into offering templates and ready-made front-end and back-end setups, making it possible to host a website without writing any code. Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences. Code is essential, and moving towards more user-friendly, code-free tools might limit deeper development possibilities.

I have been using Vercel for the past six months.

We didn't experience any stability issues with Vercel; right from the beginning, it was a very good experience. For stability, I’d give it 9.5 out of 10.

For scalability, I think Vercel should maintain a rigid system while still being easy for those who don't know code. For developers, it would be great if they could update their code directly from Vercel. Based on scalability, I'd rate it an eight out of ten.

We didn't encounter any problems requiring technical support, but I feel Vercel's support is good. The developers who built Next.js probably built it at Vercel, so it's a well-integrated system. Overall, it was a good experience.

The initial setup with Vercel is very straightforward. 

For most use cases requiring a small amount of storage, Vercel has a storage cap. Once you exceed that, they charge a nominal amount. I don’t think the storage is insufficient; you can use it for a long time.

On a scale from one to ten, I’d give Vercel nine out of ten.

I definitely recommend Vercel for others, especially for startups and those testing their products. You can connect it with GitHub to host your website easily. If you're starting a technology startup, whether B2C, B2B, SaaS, or open source, and you're low on funds, Vercel is a great option for free hosting. It has excellent built-in features, especially for those using Next.js, React, and other JavaScript libraries. Vercel is great for beginners and mediocre coders who want to host their small or medium projects to see how they look. It's free for many storage needs and is perfect for open-source projects and new libraries that need to be showcased.

I use the solution to deploy my portfolio website. 

I like Vercel the most for its ease of use, especially with Next.js. Its UI is user-friendly, and the solution is easy to learn. I was a beginner when I created my portfolio website with the tool. 

I have seen a bottleneck in Vercel regarding socket servers. According to their documentation, Vercel doesn't support WebSocket. While Vercel is great for creating a cloud application, if you need socket operations, the current platform won't accommodate that. I would like the Vercel team to add this feature.

I have been using the platform for three years. 

My portfolio website was based on Next.js. The Vercel team is part of Next.js, so it was my best option. If I had to deploy a React application, I would have had to add a lot of configurations, especially for the server part, which can get messy. That's part of the reason why I chose Vercel.

The tool's deployment is easy. 

I use the solution's free version. 

My portfolio website draws only around 200 visitors. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten. 

I wouldn't recommend Vercel for a serverless static page. If we are looking at a production level, maybe a cloud platform that is being used by a lot of users, then I would suggest Vercel because it comes with its own pages, like analytics and insights. So I think it would be better if we were using it for a large customer base. But I would not recommend it if it's for a small project.
