User Testimonials
	DigitalOcean Droplets
Likelihood to Recommend	There are some other platforms that compete with DigitalOcean Droplets that have more performant servers for a very minimal price decrease. However, DigitalOcean's servers still have great performance, and the experience is better when you consider the developer console, managed options, and uptime that DigitalOcean offers. DigitalOcean is the better all-around package. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Simplicity to scale services--the interface is very quick and effective to use Reliability--this is key for us, as any downtime effects our reputation Keeps the costs down--hosting our own equivalent infrastructure would cost a lot more Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	In terms of an availability zone, they have limitations not available in most of the geographical locations. No live support is available which can cause problem if you have outage. Number of service is quite limited. Incentivized Anuj Rai Senior Associate Technology Read full review
Usability	Other platforms dashboard console is more difficult to use. DigitalOcean's dashboard is clean, simple, and straightforward Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	DigitalOcean Droplets has more advanced options and the devs at our team are extremely geeky and they prefer to have full control on the server via SSH rather than cPanel. Incentivized LA Laila Abouizza Backend Developer Read full review
Return on Investment	Digital Ocean has been great helping us move web apps to the cloud Digital Ocean has been really helpful when hiring contractors The interface could use some work, but overall its not terrible Incentivized Tom Blazek IT Manager Read full review
