Render Reviews & Product Details

For me, the ability to get almost instant support on Slack or Discourse is super valuable. I can discuss specifics with other Render users even with Render engineers. That's really useful and not a standard at all.

Also the fact, that it's rapidly evolving and improving is very promising. All the last tech and features are being implemented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to have a bit cheaper service tiers available, especially for preview environments and toy projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* Super simple deployment.

* Quick and easy setup for Ruby on Rails applications.

* You don't need to worry about SSL certificates, it's handled by you automatically.

* Uptime is impressive.

* Documentation is well written. Even beginners don't have a problem with the setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* Missing Cloud Object Storage. I would prefer to keep everything in one place but unfortunately, I had to use another provider for that.

* Missing ability to SSH into instances.

* Pricing for toy projects could be cheaper. To get a working basic Ruby on Rails app you need to pay for one service and one database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used render to create a cron job. It was pretty easy to use, and I got it up and running in 5 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost. It's more expensive than other services for a cron job, but at $4 it's not breaking the bank or anything Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For a novice like my self, render was excellent, it was easy to set up and get going.

Its cheap, stable and support on slack is outstanding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The docs could imporve a bit, it has a few holes in it and are not as mature as lets say Heroku. But then again, you have exellent slack support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

instant access to github, and github branches, easy to setup ci/cd pipeline Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

not much, probably the one thing I wish was there was a UI to make building the render.yaml easily Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity to deploy and connect services with a matter of a couple clicks and a git push. The straightforward pricing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a fairly new cloud provider there are a few things missing, like serverless functions and auto-scaling. But the team is very responsive and very feedback driven. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great support, easy to use, fair pricing and robust systems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
