For the improvements in Netlify Platform, I think it should focus on better marketing because competitors like Vercel and others are present in the market. While Netlify Platform looks clean, neat, and enhanced, it should do better marketing, as it is actually recommended by ChatGPT for small-sized projects. I believe it should also be suggested for larger projects and promoted more so that Netlify Platform is used by multiple people; it should be the go-to cloud environment. I think the technical side of Netlify Platform can improve, especially in the documentation. They can add more information about new frameworks as they come into the platform or market. They should maintain a troubleshooting page on Netlify Platform docs that comprehensively shows all the steps. Adding more user-friendly animations or navigation would make the platform easier. Moreover, with the documentation, it currently shows all the tabs at one place, and the customer should understand what each use is without having to click into it. They should support more old frameworks as well, to increase the range of utilizations since mostly old frameworks are still in the market, prompting more users to migrate to Netlify Platform.

Pros

"The platform's most effective feature is quickly recovering virtual instances into a separate environment."
"Netlify Platform has positively impacted my organization because the entire CI/CD pipeline in place becomes very easy to manage using Netlify."
"Netlify Platform was very feasible and we did not have to pay a very large sum of money to host our services."
"The best thing Netlify Platform has done for me is that it gives me velocity, taking away all the burden and time-consuming processes so I can move fast."
"Netlify Platform has positively impacted my organization and personal projects by making it easy for me to deploy my personal portfolio website without doing all the DevOps and CI/CD pipeline myself."
"My main reason for preference over competitors like GitHub Pages and Vercel is its seamless integration with GitHub, where I can deploy directly from my development IDE using CLI commands, making it more efficient without having to manually link things."
 

Cons

"They could add more intelligence features in the workflow through automation."
"While it also helps with backend deployment, it is not as scalable as AWS or Azure, and I would love to see and explore more features in the future around it."
"Netlify Platform could be improved if they hosted their independent services apart from GitHub."
"I think the technical side of Netlify Platform can improve, especially in the documentation."
"The pricing of Netlify Platform is acceptable for beginners but can become costly for intermediate users, as it can be high when CPU usage goes beyond a certain amount."
"I think Netlify Platform can be improved if it has the functionality to have a full back-end as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The additional cost is cloud storage, which the public cloud provider charges."
