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.

Has saved time during website building and helps maintain a professional look
The mobile view needs to be fixed when reviewing on the desktop to show what it actually displays on the phone. There were a couple of small bugs which I think they fixed. Sometimes when dragging and dropping things into place, they would snap into place, and then after saving and checking the live page, it would not quite match what was showing in the website builder. I would have to go back in and move it to the right and then snap it back for it to work. Sometimes doing exactly the same thing when building requires one or two attempts to get it to reflect what you want to see on the live page.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Vercel is an easy-to-use platform, and we can easily deploy the app."
"The most valuable feature of Vercel is the custom domain."
"Vercel provides a better user experience and easier deployment than other platforms."
"It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools."
"Vercel provides hands-on experience they provide for hosting services. Initially, we started with hosting, and I found it impressive that Vercel identifies even minor issues in your project that might prevent your website from being hosted correctly. For example, if there is a small problem in your front end, Vercel will notify you that your site hasn’t been hosted yet and provide the specific file and line number where the issue is occurring. It is definitely an easy tool to use. It provides clear instructions on how to handle everything, even if you're not very familiar with coding. It has a seamless integration with GitHub. We connected our private repository to Vercel, and it directly indicates any issues with the website whenever we commit code. Even if we've done all the changes and committed to the repo, Vercel lets us know about any flaws that would prevent the website from functioning fully. Once the final commit happens, Vercel gives a green tick, indicating no issues. It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools."
"Vercel is easy to use, and it has a flexible user interface."
"It provides continuous integration and continuous deployment capabilities."
"One of the great things about Vercel is that we don't need any particular script to deploy our applications. We connect our GitHub repository directly to Vercel. Then, if any push happens in GitHub, we have a script that determines which branch should be deployed to which domain. We can map this according to our requirements."
"Basic features can be grasped in a couple of hours because it's CMS-based with all tools readily available."
"The biggest advantages are that it is inexpensive and very easy to use, which means I can spend less time building the website and more time working."
"I found everything okay in Wix, and it's easy to create a website."
"Wix has actually reduced my time in developing or delivering a website to the client, so I can have more clients in the pipeline."
"I like the solution's responsiveness, usability, and user interface."
"The return on investment with Wix is excellent because hosting a website costs around 4,000 to 5,000 Indian Rupees, equivalent to $50 a year, I have access to all tools and functionalities, and I can generate as much sales as I want through Wix."
 

Cons

"Initially, Vercel was great for hosting projects built with frameworks like Next.js or React.js, with NPM or Node.js as the backend. Now, they seem to be expanding into offering templates and ready-made front-end and back-end setups, making it possible to host a website without writing any code. Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences. Code is essential, and moving towards more user-friendly, code-free tools might limit deeper development possibilities."
"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."
"I would rate it seven out of ten because there are things missing in Vercel."
"Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences."
"There is room for improvement in terms of error logging. It has some bugs."
"If I could add a feature to Vercel to make my life easier, I would add a user journey feature for new users."
"Vercel cannot handle big projects like shopping applications."
"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)."
"Wix has drawbacks regarding website optimization and speed."
"There are a few bugs where what it says it will show on the phone versus the laptop does not always match."
"When it comes to drag and drop, it sometimes creates problems when the size is not compatible."
"The solution’s scalability can be improved."
"The Wix editor can sometimes be glitched or buggy and requires a significant amount of memory on my computer."
"Wix is quite slow. When I use Wix, it's a bit slower than Shopify."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Vercel is a bit costlier than other solutions like AWS."
"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."
"I haven't paid for the solution yet. You need to pay to invite team members."
"It's quite expensive for enterprise use, but it's worth the price."
"Vercel is basically free. It's free of cost for new developers."
"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's pricing depends on the size of the project."
"I'm a free user."
"Wix is an affordable solution."
