Managed cloud hosting done right
Cloudways sits in a sweet spot between shared hosting and raw cloud servers. You pick your cloud provider (I chose DigitalOcean), they handle the server management — updates, security, backups, caching.
Their Breeze caching and Cloudflare Enterprise CDN integration noticeably improved my photography portfolio's load times. Image-heavy pages that took 5+ seconds now load in under 2.
The staging and cloning features save me hours. The server monitoring dashboard is clean and useful.
Since the DigitalOcean acquisition, prices have bumped up slightly and there's been some concern about independence. But the product itself remains solid. It's the perfect solution if you want cloud performance without the sysadmin overhead.
