Render Reviews & Product Details

What I like most about Render is how it brings many common infrastructure needs into one place. From the same platform, you can run web services, static sites, private services, background workers, cron jobs, managed Postgres, and key-value stores. Having everything together like this makes it much easier to manage an app overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As usage grows, pricing can start to feel a bit more layered. Render’s pricing mixes workspace plans with separate compute costs, and the free services come with important limitations and aren’t intended for production use. Because of that, teams need to keep a closer eye on scaling and overall usage as time goes on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

best part on this deployment of frontend and backend easily using their services like static deployment as well as backend deployed as well on it for free of cost for cpu of 0.1 for testing part and then you can change easily just by paying the 7$ for upgrade version as well as i have used it deploying my staging server on this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing just not having the setup for load balancer so if users comes in bulk just balance it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Render's robust admin environment, which is user-friendly and not overly complicated, enhancing both functionality and user experience. The platform’s transparent and realistic subscription plans make it financially feasible. Render significantly augments my CICD speed and quality, which is invaluable. For a cybersecurity expert like me, the focus on zero trust security and client privacy is reassuring. The platform's capability to support SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 standards in its infrastructure further underscores its reliability. The customer support is responsive and of high quality, genuinely showing care for its customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would allow more web services to be run at a cheaper price than $7. Additionally, I would increase the running minutes allowance for build times and increase the bandwidth usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The easiness to deploy flask apps over github Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there’s nothing I dislike. While I would appreciate having more resources available on the free tier, the current limits are sufficient for the proof of concept stage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Render is amazing, it's a cloud plataform that makes it easy to build, distribute, and run any application or site.

What I love about Render is that it simplifies server, infrastructure, and container management. You can focus on your code and let Render do the rest. Render too offers a assortment of free levels and reasonable plans to suit your needs.

Also, what I like most approximately Render is that it contains a exhaustive documentation and user-friendly interface.

I think Render seems to be making progress as there are some highlights that are still in beta or being improved. However, features such as WebSockets and serverless features are not fully supported. Additionally, some customers may prefer greater customization and control over management, such as the use of SSH or custom namespaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enjoy quick and easy scalability with Render, which allows you to adjust your application resources on the fly without the need for manual server management or infrastructure upkeep.

Protect your application from unauthorized access with Render's security features, which include free SSL certificates and private networking options.

Keep costs low while still getting powerful cloud deployment features with Render, which offers competitive pricing and a variety of free services to help make deploying your web apps and sites more affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Render's limited language support may pose an issue for developers who favor languages other than Node.js, Python, Ruby, or Go. Although Render's built-in services can be time-saving, they may not offer the flexibility and customization options provided by third-party services, which may be a drawback if your application has unique requirements.

Easy cloud solution for your servers. GitHub integration and automatical updates, auto-scaling, cheapest plans and perfect support. Docker or Git - it doesn't matter - the services works perfect. Support Go, NodeJS, partically PHP and other products from the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What is missing is the easy deployment of any PHP applications, as was done with Node solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's free to develop and deploy many other services (like Node js) and can be integrated to provide one click CICD setup with VCS like GitHub Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its free tier is terribly slow in both in case of deployment and in case of server start time after the server is moved to sleep state. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Render gives us peace of mind running our API backends. Basically, Render started where Heroku stopped. So you get many required features, to name a few:

* Infrastructure-as-service via a yaml file

* Auto-scale web services by CPU/RAM. In contrast to Heroku where it's made by P99/P95 latency. I can’t stress enough how better and correct is Render's auto-scale by CPU/RAM is. It's super fast and responsive, saves us big $$$ and quick to handle traffic spikes.

* env var groups so you would not repeat yourself defining the same envs multiple times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some missing features in REST endpoint.

More regions support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Probably the simplest PaaS on the market that I have tested.

I tested Virtuozzo, Heroku, AWS, ... but nothing satisfied me for a decent cost. Render ticks all the boxes.

The high availability, the security, the community and the low price convinced me to use it in production and I don't regret it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have only been using it for a short time, but I haven't found any major flaws yet.

I miss for the moment a maintenance mode to disable my website with a custom page Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
