Vercel's positive developer experience
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our organization uses Vercel for website and lambda hosting. They provide us with infrastructure for hosting our multitude of websites & platforms, and their serverless systems allow us to deploy changes quickly. We've configured automatic deploys to sync changes from GitHub onto our production websites. We also use Vercel for some DNS management on a few of our domains.
