Love it! At last I can focus on writing code... **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Matanya F. | Senior Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2021 **What do you like best about fortrabbit?** I needed a platform to host a CraftCMS project. AFAIK fortrabbit is the only platform that has built-in support for Craft apps. There is an amazing plugin, craft-copy (https://github.com/fortrabbit/craft-copy) that does all of the heavy lifting required for deployment and keeping the different environments in sync. Their UI is simple, easy to navigate, and gives you all of the required data (ssh, sftp, MySQL, etc.) in plain sight. Not to mention the very fair pricing. Such joy to deploy with a single line. **What do you dislike about fortrabbit?** Nothing. This is how pros build a hosting platform. **What problems is fortrabbit solving and how is that benefiting you?** As mentioned the problem was hosting a CraftCMS app. ### 3. PHP hosting done right. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Doug W. | Technology Advisor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2018 **What do you like best about fortrabbit?** When you focus one one product, you can get it right. That's what fortrabbit does. They host PHP web applications, and that's it. The interface is simple. The pricing is very reasonable. The performance is great and scaleable. Very fast support via on-screen chat. They provide free TLS security for your web app. The uptime is great. We have been with them nearly two years now, and never had the application go down. They had a scheduled outage in the middle of one Sunday and we never even noticed it - and had plenty of notice. We used to host on a shared server using CPanel through Arvixe. The main reason we switched to fortrabbit was due to the CPanel server constantly having issues. Now, uptime with fortrabbit is like a rock. **What do you dislike about fortrabbit?** They don't host DNS for your app. This is not really a big deal. They do make it really easy by giving you the proper DNS entries to make in your own DNS host. Adding the TLS security took me a few hours to get it right. You have to add a .htaccess file in the right directory with the right instructions in it. Google it to find some examples. **Recommendations to others considering fortrabbit:** Jump on and try it for yourself. It seriously will take you a couple hours to have your entire account set up and entire app fully hosted, with full security and DNS configured. **What problems is fortrabbit solving and how is that benefiting you?** Uptime. They are so solid. Nearly two years of solid app performance. Not one single complaint of the web app being down. Test app hosting. It is super east to spin up a new application, and dirt cheap. We have a test app for $5 / month. It doesn't need to be the high performance package for the production app. But testing in the same environment is great. ## fortrabbit Discussions - [What is fortrabbit used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-fortrabbit-used-for) - [View fortrabbit pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/fortrabbit/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-21+00%3A56%3A10+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=ed4c01c2-901b-455c-ae6c-f3b388133189&secure%5Btoken%5D=8cb419be75bf2cca52c2e5bfff0afc40c0d4e6b52b39632fb3fd1e026989eba1&format=llm_user) ## Top fortrabbit Alternatives - [Laravel](https://www.g2.com/products/laravel/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (146 reviews) - [Angular](https://www.g2.com/products/angular/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (154 reviews) - [CodeIgniter](https://www.g2.com/products/codeigniter/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (54 reviews)
