Their dev, test, live environment was good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? If you are using woocommerce do NOT use pantheon. We launched and our site went down with 200 concurrent users. The fix? Oh yeah we have a known issue distributing your site along our architecture, try and fix it this way. Also want support? Pay $500 per month or we wont help you. 30-50 minute chat wait times are all you have. I do not recommend mission critical sites be hosted here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Pantheon: If you need hosting you can rely on for wordpress, choose another host. They do not take responsibility for their lack of planning. While they did give us a solution to THEIR hosting environment issues, it still had to be implemented by our in-house developers. They touted that the site would be fast and spread across servers and reliable, we deployed a site and everything was fine. The trouble came when we started running ad traffic to the site. We hit between 150 and 200 concurrent visitors on the site and our website went down. At that point we reached out to their (Chat only) support and had to wait 50 minutes to get something changed. Once it was changed and the traffic died down the site came back up. Great. The solution from the chat agent was to upgrade our plan. So we went ahead and changed to the 'performance medium' and eventually the 'performance large' plan. Well that caused a whole other set of issues where the site went down again. What happened is that Pantheon could not properly serve all the resources to visitors of the site. So they sent us a link to github for some issue from 2018 that they said they knew about, but did not bother to let us know would affect our site until another 30 minute wait to get in contact with their chat support.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? We've recently been auto-upgraded twice in quick succession due to the number of page views we have. Their records are more than double everything we can measure and their support team has not been helpful in the slightest. Since signing our contract our pricing has increased 1250% and our page views have increased 2-3x. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ceo Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/14/2021 "Highly professional with advanced tools" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Pantheon? I love how easy the Pantheon platform is to use for more advanced deployments. The tools are incorporated in such a way that it just works and I don't have to worry as much about issues on my live site because I've been able to throughly develop and test code changes. Automatic backups and Git integration are also second to none. The support I've received has always been top notch as well with as much handholding as I've needed to correct any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? The price is certainly higher than most other hosts but I feel like I get a fair deal for as many tools and services that come with the platform. I would like to see Pantheon offer agency pricing for everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Pantheon: If you are looking for the best quality Pantheon is it. If you are looking for the cheapest price I would look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Pantheon solving and how is that benefiting you? I am a one man show 99% of the time but occasionally I will bring a contractor on for a specific task. Pantheon allows me to give them specific access and to get them up to speed quickly.

Not your average Wordpress hosting. Provides advanced workflows for managing sites (multidev environments, integration with github, daily backups, etc.). Hosting is reliable and fast. Amazing customer support--always available, very friendly, and the most helpful support team out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? They aren't the cheapest option. The value is definitely there for the price for many sites, but for clients looking to put up a very basic Wordpress website it's sometimes hard to sell them on the sticker, particularly if they have multiple sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Pantheon: Setup a sandbox site to test it out and get started Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DH Danny H. Web Developer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/31/2020 "Great WordPress Managed Hosting" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Pantheon? It makes it super easy to set up WordPress along with being able to have multiple environments to make testing super easy. I also like the requirement to actually commit code to install a plugin which requires a little more knowledge and adds a little barrier to add code to the site that is not custom-built for the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? The quality of support has gone down a little over the past year. There is still a fair amount of help it just seems like Pantheon has been going through a growth spurt and I've been through this with other similar companies in the past hopefully it will pass and everything will get better. Pantheon is still a good choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Pantheon: If you need a decent amount of scale, multiple testing environments, or Drupal support along with WordPress Pantheon makes a good choice. It is fairly expensive comparatively but you get what you pay for with Pantheon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Pantheon solving and how is that benefiting you? The main problems would be scale and security. Some of the other managed hosts have had issues keeping up with some of the sites, especially around e-commerce. Pantheon has never had any issues.

"Pantheon is my favorite hosting platform for client WordPress sites" 5/5 What do you like best about Pantheon? The Pantheon dashboard is exceptionally user-friendly compared to other hosts. They have made backup creation, branch creation, merging of code, and migration of database and files as easy as I could see it ever being. The added value of Terminus and easy use of Lando for local development makes automating simple tasks or making batch edits to sites on a network a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? My main issues with Pantheon have been in migrating existing client sites from other hosts. The migration process itself is easy, but due to Pantheon's considerations and limitations of the network, many client sites come with plugins that assume write access or have other conflicts with the platform and either need work arounds or entirely new solutions. The innability to make changes to the server configuration is also a bit frustrating, but understandable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Pantheon solving and how is that benefiting you? Based on the limitation of my role within my organization, I don't have much feedback in terms of Pantheon solving business problems.

I love the workflow with Pantheon. The user interface is very straightforward and easy to use for both developers and clients. There is great user support documentation that helps and their customer service is great for answering questions timely. The multi-dev environments make it great to do continuous work on. The fact that the live environment is locked from direct changes is also nice for staying up to date with code where clients also maintain their site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? Pantheon can be an expensive platform to use, but it comes with many good security benefits for the price. It may not be the best option for smaller businesses or websites because of the hosting costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pantheon goes above and beyond standard web hosting tools. They provide editing tools that give multiple editors a more efficient means for making shared edits. We can assign various roles to users and set a clear path for edit approvals. I like Pantheon's staging tools. They allow us to experiment with design and functional website changes without publishing live pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? Pantheon is more expensive than common shared hosting plans. Using the Pantheon environment can be confusing for new users or for clients that want to check out and get directly involved with the editing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Pantheon solving and how is that benefiting you? Our pages load reliably and quickly. We have a unified editing and website management platform that lets us collaborate and make changes in a streamlined way. We can perform trial and error tasks in a safe and complete environment. Some sandbox environments don't always allow for complete code execution, but Pantheon's staging environment is mostly true to the live environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the DevOps tools and the Documentation feature. It teaches you how to get into the nuts & bolts of web development. If you're an enterprise-level org and you want to treat your WebDev to a good time, get Pantheon. The free sandbox is great for drafting sites and learning how to manage them. When you learn how the DevOps tools work, you realize how powerful the platform can be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Pantheon? The pricing. We have been bumped up to a ridiculously expensive tier because of our site traffic even though we're a small organization. Extremely difficult to justify the cost come budget season. The support. It's a lot like a therapist. They will walk you through the process of solving your issue instead of... solving it. They're pretty hands-off on helping you get your site up after your code goes out of date. When you have analytical folks breathing down your neck due to a 504 error on a page, you need a fix, not a tutorial. The (lack of) Onboarding I've never used New Relic before. So imagine my confusion when trying to figure out if my site has any PHP issues. What's a Redis? Let's google/check the documentation on this instead of working. Mission/Scope Creep. Pantheon was marketed to us by our site-builder and it looked like we were in a perfect tier with the right features. With time, that niche got consumed into the enterprise ("Organization") tier and many of the features I anticipated got subsumed into a premium service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Pantheon solving and how is that benefiting you? I learned a lot about web development and creating the optimal environment for web development. It's a great learning tool but a pricey hosting solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Current UserValidated ReviewerSource: Organic ## Questions about Pantheon?
