"A good service to scale your business"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

They have a very friendly dashboard to manage all your sites, with a couple of free tools that will help you on your sites.

We use WPengine to deploy several stores and they are running correctly. We can administrate those all sites easily and fast.

Our first stores were deployed very fast in a couple of clicks. It's ideal for startups that want to go online fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

If you use the cheapest plans, you share servers with other customers. This can cause your performance to have a negative impact due to the traffic from the other sites. We had to change servers because of that and we will upgrade our plan to have dedicated servers to avoid that problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Most Excellent Space for WordPress sites"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

WPEngine provides the best 24/7 technical support I have ever seen. Their plugin updating add on saves me at least 8-10 hours of work a month. The DNS settings are easy to use and they integrate with many domain providers. The ease of implenetation with different URLs was such a great experience. I created one site and then easily pointed our different domains to the main site. It was seamless and the one issue I had, the 24/7 support walked me through it. As for frequency of use, I'm on WP Engine at least 4-5 times a week making updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

Honestly, I don't have anything I've found in over 3 years of use that I dislike. WPEngine takes on your advice as a user and is always finding ways to make the site easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Price/cost. With that said, you get what you pay for and it is worth it in this case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Stress-Free, User-Friendly Hosting Solution"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

I like that WPEngine backs up everyting for you every day, that you can back it up manually at any time, the fact that you can restore and feel safe about having it restored to any point. The support is amazing as well, as good as the Apple Support. The research as well. I participated in two research video calls and I was more than happy to give my input and experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

There is not much to dislike about it. The design is good but it is not as responsive as you might think. The confusion between Flywheel and WpEngine. I know they merged, but that is still going on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A little pricey, but generally worth it because of their support"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The best support that I have experienced in the industry. Nothing even comes close. Their team is always prompt to respond and usually goes above and beyond in their solutions.

The overall product is what you'd expect - managed WordPress and WooCommerce hosting. The dashboard is easy to navigate and utilizing the Staging and Development environments for each instance is simple enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

Entry-level pricing is still competitive, but enterprise options can be atrociously expensive. Depending on your situation, the price just may not be worth it, but if you can afford it their services and support are absolutely top-notch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great customer service"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The service WPEngine provide is very good. Whenever I have an issue there is also someone there to help me fix my issues. The integration into the websites I work on seem to be seemless, especially with the migration plugin. This make it incrediably easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

I don't lilke how the layout on the website is constantly changing. Whenever I get used to the layout of the WPEngine site/dashboard, things seem to be moved around. I would be good if the dashboard block could be rearranged to fit my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We use WPE for all of our (non Cpanel required) projects"
What do you like best about WP Engine?

The support is ideal for a hosting company but having 3 enviornments fresh out the box is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WP Engine?

We wish it had Cpanel for file mgmt. Its the only reason we dont use it on 100% of all of our client projects. We would use it 100% of the time if it did have that option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
