My favorite thing about Netlify is the ease of integration with any GitHub repository, it only takes developer a few clicks, and his CI/CD environment is ready. It enabled my team with fast builds, and awesome features like build previews upon pull requests. That saved a large amount of time when reviewing my colleague's code. Also, Netlify functions enabled us to have smaller server-side code helpers developing and running very easily.

It is relatively easy to use, it has good documentation and in general, it just works. It's excellent for rapid prototyping and it has a very helpful support team. I usually use it in combination with GitHub and I find this combination to be powerful enough to keep coming back to it. To add custom domains it's a breeze as well.

It's free and can be deployed straight from Github. The command line interface makes it easy and fast to use for developers like myself. Another great plus is that I can host many sites via Netlify, and its so fast to deploy another one straight from the command line. The starter plan is great as one is given all the features and tools needed to realize how powerful the platform can be. The plug-in tools, such as submit site map to google, are priceless for keeping our site known to the users of the internet. Another great tool is the checklinks, and no more 404, which helps keep our site's connections in check so we don't have any broken links as our project gets bigger.
