Easy to set up with good chat support and no downtime
I would like to see specials on renewals like Go Daddy used to offer, so it would be possible to renew at the $10 rate I pay at the lower-priced registrar that doesn't offer a catchall address in their email forwarding. I would definitely take advantage of those offers and move those domains to Namecheap. Other than that, Namecheap is perfect as it is.

A serverless solution with good performance
Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts. The tool should improve its support. The time zone difference causes delays in communication, which can significantly impact production websites and servers. I'd rate the platform itself higher, but they still need improvements. They need to work on their billing system and create more understandable plans that clearly show costs based on bandwidth usage. A major challenge we faced was an unexpectedly high bill of 25 lakhs for one month when we usually pay only one or two lakhs (100,000-200,000 rupees). While they showed the bandwidth usage, we lacked support on optimising or implementing changes to reduce costs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I have never had any downtime with these domains."
"Vercel is easy to use, and it has a flexible user interface."
"The tool is easy to use."
"With Vercel, we reached more than ninety percent performance in website and lazy loading."
"Vercel is the fastest deployer, and if you deploy your site, it won't have any issues."
"Most of the product features are free, which is quite advantageous."
"Vercel provides a better user experience and easier deployment than other platforms."
"Vercel is easy to deploy; we don't have to set up any servers or something like that, we just have to configure the server in Vercel and it takes care of it."
"It is pretty stable. I haven't found any bugs."
 

Cons

"At $15 to renew a .com domain, Namecheap isn't so cheap anymore."
"Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts."
"The product's build time needs enhancement. It currently takes up to four minutes to build my projects for every deployment, which is lengthy."
"Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences."
"Vercel does have certain limitations regarding the app's size and scalability."
"Vercel cannot handle big projects like shopping applications."
"The tool could have some built-in support for a wide variety of frameworks. I have seen that the tool is majorly biased towards Next.js because it is one of Vercel's products."
"What I could feel is that it should have some work for when we commit some type of error."
"When it comes to serverless edge functions, Vercel sometimes kind of messes up. If there is one chatbot and 100 users are trying to chat with it at once, it gets messed up, even if it is a small number."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"For most use cases requiring a small amount of storage, Vercel has a storage cap. Once you exceed that, they charge a nominal amount. I don’t think the storage is insufficient; you can use it for a long time."
"The solution is expensive for React projects."
"I haven't paid for the solution yet. You need to pay to invite team members."
"As a DevOps person who has to consider the commercial aspects, I find it odd that we must pay $20 per user for each new project under a pro account. That's not what I expected. Additionally, there are charges based on bandwidth usage. We incur additional charges if we go beyond 1 TB or 2 TB. However, we can choose plans based on our specific requirements. So, while the per-project pricing and bandwidth-based charges can add up, we have some flexibility in selecting plans that fit our needs."
"It's quite expensive for enterprise use, but it's worth the price."
"I'm a free user."
"If I cross the free version, I have heard from some people that the billing can be expensive."
"The tool's billing allows 200 deployments per day, but if you want to do more work with the solution, you can opt for the pro plan offered by the tool."
