## Vercel Reviews
  ### 1. Fast deployments, even better support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 12, 2023

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

It is very speedy, most Next.js deployments are done in about 1 minute, and they are swift on the client side. I have used Netlify in the past, and it's speeds don't even remotely compare to Vercel's.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

I genuinely cannot think of anything I dislike about Vercel. I had an issue previously with one deployment but it was extremely simple to fix and was only caused by remote caching.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps our team ship a beautiful yet fast product. We have never once had a negative thought about Vercel, and our entire team loves it. Our sites feel faster, and they definitely deploy faster.

  ### 2. Great tool for static websites

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Writing and Editing | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2023

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

It's very easy to use, all that you need is GitHub account and mobile phone verification. For starting projects, there is a lot of templates ready to use or integrations on the marketplace.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

Service is great and there is nothing bad about it. They post updates very often and there is more and more new users coming.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's easy to use and manage my blog posts.

  ### 3. Beginner friendly, intuitive deployment platform for frontend apps

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dushyant P. | Technology Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

Vercel allows small teams to host static websites and JAMstack apps NextJS and React applications within a few clicks, by connecting directly to version control. For small projects, the focus is on quick deployment and continuous release, and Vercel's auto configured setup allows developers to focus on their application without having to worry about the DevOps dependencies.

It is continuously iterating to include more features such as adding cron jobs that can run at regular intervals

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

Vercel is, at its core, a frontend hosting platform, and is largely limited when there's any sort of backend infra involved. For full stack applications, it is therefore not an all encompassing solution. There's also a few limitations when multiple developers wish to view the logs of the same project.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vercel provides us a no-nonsense, fast deployment platform wherein we can push and test changes for our jamstack applications, saving considerably on release and deployment bandwidths. It also has templates and configurations built in, saving further time on customizing dependencies. It has great potential to expand its service to full stack applications, starting with minor NodeJS services, since their deployment environments are similar to those required by react applications

  ### 4. Free serverless deployment

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gaurav P. | Software Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

Free deployments for my JAM stacks websites and web applications

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

Paid (team) plans are quite costly when calculated against a self managed hosting on a cloud service such as AWS. Paid plans do not make sense when scaling.

**Recommendations to others considering Vercel:**

Best depolyment solution for JAM stack based web applications and websites, offers continuous delivery via Git integrations

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy, fast and automated deployments

  ### 5. Best serverless deployment platform for JavaScript front-ends and websites

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gaurav K. | Product Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2022

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

With Vercel, I and my team can deploy our website automatically in minutes and that too free of cost. We use Next.js (React Framework) for our website and front-end and deploying them is the easiest task in our application development cycle. Not only this, we also have preview (staging) deployments setup because of Vercel. This could not have been possible for a small company like ours without Vercel.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

We have not come across any big downsides of Vercel apart from one thing - Vercel cannot let other GitHub users see the deployment logs. It is only visible for the GitHub account with which Vercel is integrated.

**Recommendations to others considering Vercel:**

Go for it if you are looking for serverless deployments of your javascript based websites.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy fast immediate serverless deployments. CI/CD pipeline for our front-ends. All this at zero cost.

  ### 6. Easy Web Developing Platform.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Koushik P. | Code Soc Coordinator , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 28, 2021

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

The most useful information about Vercel is it is beat and easy to host framework websites easliy. Like react, jekyll, next js and etc..,It will auto depoly builds if we make any commit to the GutHub repo which we connect to it.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

According to me only two things are missing in Vercel those are there is not latest version of more js it js using only old version every time when we develop the applications it make us to some difficult to run appliction latest version in this thag make to search for alternative which will give the latest version of in nodejs.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problems I solved and benifit I got in this Vercel is it will deploy any tyoe of applications jn less than 2 min which make my appliction to deploy latest changes fastly, and another one is custom domain I saw so many that they won't give custom domain option if it host 247 fo free accounts but this Vercel do that.

  ### 7. Decent Alternative to Netlify

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ashish M. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 31, 2021

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

Its ability to deploy a static site quickly. It also provides multiple pre-built templates to deploy the site quickly. No need to worry about the server deployment and hosting, just push your code to version control and auto-build will be triggered by Vercel. The hobby ( free tier) plan is quite generous in terms of services offered.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

As such, there is no specific disadvantage, but if it supports python application, one can deploy even dynamic app on Vercel without the need to have look for any other hosting platform

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have hosted one of my documentation websites on it. I have used the pre-built template to edit and deploy the documentation. It was very quick as i need to enter only the data, no coding was needed.

  ### 8. Good for medium size projects

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jayasurya J. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

On the fly run-time image optimisation and quick deploy at the click of a button. Marketplace has also lot of extensions like caching.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

The incremental static regeneration feature is not working properly and vercel has quite frequent downtimes.

**Recommendations to others considering Vercel:**

If your use cases are comples (like country based routing with rewrites) - its better to setup on you own. The cost also increases if your usage is more in vercel .

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Best provider to host NextJs stack. Since it's a managed solution it takes away our headache of managing this.

  ### 9. Easy to deploy and manage your web projects

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yash R. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 17, 2021

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

Vercel is most friendly and easy to use deployment service i have ever used ! Also the admin console we can manage multiple project with ease  , CI/CD pipeline is awesome .

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

There is nothing much to dislike , but sometimes due to third party packages i used in react leads to failed builds but found many work around for that since Vercel is popular .

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am looking for simple and hassle free CI/CD pipelining solution and Vercel seems the best.
Some of the benefits are free hosting and easy to manage custom domain .

  ### 10. Best Platform for Front-End

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

Best part of the Vercel is, I can integrate it many tools I used daily such as Github. I pull the project from Github and check preview mode to see if there is a problem before prod.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

Shopify solution seems good on Vercel but they didn't completely integrated CMS of the Shopify therefore, I think they shouldn't advice on it before the project is completely integrated.

**What problems is Vercel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am a front end engineer thus, I need to visualize my code beside my local computer. Therefore, I use Vercel to see if the project is working properly. In addition, I love using Vercel with NextJS because they complete each other with image optimization, lighthouse etc.

  ### 11. Best Framework Hosting platforms.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** PUPPALA K. | Web developer and student, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2021

**What do you like best about Vercel?**

The most useful and Upsides of using Vercel is it is free and easy for the development of advanced JavaScript Libraries like React, Nextjs, and Vue. And one more thing in this is it is a custom domain setup.

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

The least helpful and Downsides in Vercel is it did not have the latest version of Nodejs which is lts only it is still using the old version it did not update to the latest lts version also so it is giving me some problems for my latest version required projects.

The business problems and Benefits I solved using Vercel are the best hostings and free Hosting for high leveled frameworks of javascript. It has auto-build for GitHub-linked projects and has a custom domain.

**Reviewed Date:** July 11, 2021

One of the best feature is deploying instantly when we had a change on our repository, Yeah few other apps also provide this feature, but as a React developer / NextJS developer Its much easirer!

**What do you dislike about Vercel?**

I wouldn't say it as a disliking feature, but some basic settings are restricted in the free version. It would be much better to have the primary element for free.

**Recommendations to others considering Vercel:**

Much easier to configure, All your post-work after development will be much more accessible by integrating Vercel.
