"Effortless Deployment and Automation with Netlify"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

I like that I'm able to deploy my web applications on Netlify easily using a live link. This feature is useful for publishing both front-end and back-end applications like those built with React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, and Django. The platform allows me to connect to real applications and deploy for various purposes such as ecommerce stores or client projects. I appreciate using artificial intelligence to help detect errors during deployment and enhance productivity. The command line interface, continuous integration, and continuous development features are great for ensuring my applications are always deployable and up to date, which helps prevent vulnerabilities and software rejections. Netlify automates the deployment process, checking for exposed .env variables and outdated software, which is crucial for maintaining security and functionality.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

Netlify has where it requires you use a certain amount of credits. They have their own command line interface, which I can easily use within the terminal rather than using the web application. Or the web version and being able to manually deploy it. It also gives me error messages when it hasn't been successfully deployed to the platform and posted to the web. There's also some ways of detecting any vulnerabilities and how I can improve and protect the web application from vulnerabilities. Just like Cloudflare or Vercel, Vercel has a detection where it can tell if you're vulnerable and which platform is vulnerable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless JSON Hosting and Integration"
5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

I use Netlify to park JSON files online so our whole company can view and interact with them. It allows us to place something online without a domain or website, like manuals and company info. I like how easy it is to drag in a JSON and within seconds have a live site online. Plus, I appreciate the ability to connect with other software, like emailJS and Firebase, for reading and writing info. The initial setup was extremely easy; I signed up and started working right away. Even after upgrading to a higher plan for more functionality, there were no issues. Overall, my experience has been positive, and I'd rate my likelihood to recommend Netlify to a friend or colleague a 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

Theres nothing I've found so far I dislike. So far this is the only tool i've used that can do this so its already ahead of the curve in that aspect Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Netlify’s Instant Deploys and Branch Previews Remove Dev Friction"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

Netlify's instant deployment pipeline is a game-changer for a lean founder team. I use it to host and deploy AEOmotor's frontend — pushing to Git and having the live site update in under 30 seconds removes an enormous amount of friction from our development cycle. The branch previews are also incredibly useful for testing schema changes and structured data updates before they go live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

The free tier's build minute limits can become a bottleneck during active development sprints. Also, the analytics dashboard is fairly basic compared to dedicated monitoring tools — you need to integrate third-party services to get meaningful insights into traffic patterns.

"Great CMS. simple, quick and versatile"
5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

Netlify Connect enables the implementation and production of high quality, accessible websites which are easy to use, and with the use of Git to manage changes in a manner that does not require much customer support. I use this most days and find it easy to integrate with my other roles, and the features are comprehensive, and I haven't needed to use Customer Support very often, but when I do, the response has been prompt and helpful.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

I haven't found many downsides to using Netlify Connect so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Netlify Makes Deployments Incredibly Easy in Minutes"
5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

Netlify makes deployments incredibly easy. Whether I’m deploying a static site or a more robust app, it only takes a few minutes to get everything up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

"Building websites without headaches"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

What I love most is how simple it is to push changes. For example, I updated my portfolio with new project screenshots, committed to Git, and Netlify had the new version live almost immediately. I don’t have to touch hosting or SSL certificates which I often struggle, it just works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

Sometimes, especially on bigger projects, the free tier can hit limits on build minutes or bandwidth, which slows things down. Also, the error messages aren’t always obvious if something unusual happens during deployment,it took me a couple of tries to figure out a domain redirect issue Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Deployments and Hosting with Great Developer Experience"
5/5
What do you like best about Netlify?

My most preferred aspect of Netlify is that static sites and JAMstack sites become deployable with a one-button click or simply a push to Git. The automated/continuous deployment from Git is smooth and all the built-in features like forms, serverless functions, redirects, and preview branches simplifies the development process. The dashboard is simple to work around and the free plan is surprisingly large and reduces the time for code and preview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Netlify?

Netlify is good for the front-end and static websites, but there are some limits for more complex backend functionality. Lacks the logs to resolve the issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
