"Excellent option to improve the speed of my web page"
What do you like best about OpenLiteSpeed?

I really like how quickly it makes my web pages load. I didn't need advanced knowledge to set it up; just by installing it, my web page's loading improved significantly, making its basic implementation very easy.

Then I wanted to further improve the loading, and there I did need some help due to the number of options we can change, but it was worth it because it improved even more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenLiteSpeed?

If we want to manually configure all the features of this tool, the setup can be a bit complicated.

On some occasions when I was configuring the tool, I had problems with my page loading, which caused it to lose its design. After much searching, this was because I enabled the option to combine the CSS and JS files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Open-Source Webserver, Built for Speed!"
What do you like best about OpenLiteSpeed?

Openlitespeed is an amazing open-source webserver, with just the right performance benefits along with control. The fact that it support mod_rewrite makes it even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenLiteSpeed?

No full .htaccess support(mod_Rewrite is fully supported through an .htaccess file though)

No support for Major panels yet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"High-performance alternative to Apache and NGINX"
What do you like best about OpenLiteSpeed?

Open-source and free, I find OpenLiteSpeed one of the best alternatives to a full-fledged Apache web server, only it's lighter and comes with a solid built-in caching engine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenLiteSpeed?

OpenLiteSpeed, by default, is not entirely compatible with Apache's popular configuration file htaccess, and common actions like editing permalinks in WordPress stacks built on OpenLiteSpeed are not instantly applied, but thankfully a graceful server restart (without downtime) forces the application of changes.

"Superior performance"
What do you like best about OpenLiteSpeed?

I've used numerous hosting services for WordPress over the years. I now exclusively use services using an OpenLiteSpeed stack for superior speed, performance and the ability to pair with the LiteSpeed Cache plugin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenLiteSpeed?

Nothing, but it's a shame more managed services haven't added it to their options yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent webserver with lightning speed"
What do you like best about OpenLiteSpeed?

It is designed to be fast. If you have your own VPS, you can easily deploy it with CyberPanel. WordPress and this webserver provide excellent performance together. OpenLitespeed is free as well. It also comes with its own Web access panel where you can configure almost anything related to OpenLiteSpeed. In addition, there is a live monitoring dashboard as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenLiteSpeed?

I have been using it for a few months now and I have not seen any major problems with the OpenLiteSpeed server. Though, it requires technical knowledge on creating servers and VPS. I have also faced some issues to properly deploy it with servers that have more than 2 IP addresses assigned to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
