Render Pricing Overview

Others find it good, so I guess it might be, but it's not for me.

They need to fix the pricing descriptions. I had one failed deployment that in Google Cloud and Azure is not charged, but was charged in Render.com. Also the pricing says 90 days free PostgreSQL, but was charged at the end of the first month. Also github integration was taking too long to be completed.

Instant deployment

Great support, easy to use, fair pricing and robust systems

I a little more pricey than some other hosting option but it the price is fully justified by the excellent support and ease of use.

Building a site for an Indie startup. The site works perfectly and is very fast. The flexible pricing structure is greatly appreciated. The simple and easy to use systems have allowed us to focus on our product instead of technical issues.

The pricing is very competitive compared to similar features on heroku. It is simple to use and take away most of the dev-ops burden.

The documentation has not handle as many edge cases as other more mature tools, but they answer your email in a heartbeat.

Previously using AWS, migrating the server to Render solved maintenance and dev ops at a fair price. Migrating to Heroku for the same benefits would have been unthinkable because of the cost.

Render is constantly adding new features to an already fully stacked hosting service and not just their own features, it appears they take an honest consideration into what their users want added because I constantly see the requests by us in the feedback area getting added to the roadmap. Support is fantastic, infrastructure as code deployments, rollbacks, pull request previews, documentation "with" example code repositories, my favorite host by far.

The logo and color... sorry :( imho it should be something complimentary to the services or the "feeling" you get with the product; resilient, performant, trusted.

deployment time, uptime, performance, cost, list can go on.

I love how quickly the automated builds are, and how simple it was to get set up after moving from Heroku and other providers. I think the expansion of their features into cron-jobs and the likes, coupled with their super competitive pricing - they feel like the best provider to build on for my applications. The abstractions they have created for getting set up means I'm not wasting time trying to figure everything out. Their documentation & step-by-step guides have helped me get started quickly and now I've been using Render for a little over 8 months. Overall I recommend them highly and look forward to what they expand to over the coming year!

Sometimes the UI around deployments isn't as smooth as It could be - mostly around updating the state of the deployment without refreshing. I also think that the logs could be presented in a clearer way - it doesn't feel like the most modern logging UI. These are minor though to the benefits I get.

Lightning-fast deployments and implementation of new services - it's so simple to start up a node application and be running live with an SSL certificate and custom domain.

This platform is easily one of the best platforms I've ever used, the interface is really handy and the whole service is useful for getting you the best experience with deployments without having to have a DevOps course or a professional for that. One thing I have to say is that the documentation of the platform is very comprehensible and helpful. Can´t forget that unlike other platforms this platform doesn´t block you at anything asking for your credit card unless you have to pay for that. This platform is awesome for small or big projects, I'm enjoying it.

I didn't have any problems with the platform yet, I think the prices are very accessible and didn´t have any problems that I needed to contact the support team or anything like that.

Currently, I have an open-source project that's starting to take form and render is helping me afford all the costs of hosting it, one of the objectives of the project was being easy to deploy and render did actually really help me

Lot's of value for a relatively low price. Easy to use application. Supports most common ways to deploy apps and services.

While new features are being added and the offering is also quite solid on its own, Render could have more integrations with other systems. Some additional metrics would be nice-to-have.

Deploying and running a Node.js microservice works without issues. I'm happy with the overall performance and availability.

Probably the simplest PaaS on the market that I have tested. I tested Virtuozzo, Heroku, AWS, ... but nothing satisfied me for a decent cost. Render ticks all the boxes. The high availability, the security, the community and the low price convinced me to use it in production and I don't regret it.

I have only been using it for a short time, but I haven't found any major flaws yet. I miss for the moment a maintenance mode to disable my website with a custom page

I can focus on the code. Render manages all the complexity of the release and the infrastructure. I can roll back if a release doesn't work well, the server restarts automatically if an error occurs... I can go home with a clear head
