elestio Reviews 

Spun up a new app for me within 72 hours at a very reasonable rate.

Customer support has been good.

As someone who isn't tech-savvy, I've found the Elestio platform absolutely invaluable in helping me set up my apps quickly. I'm still surprised Elestio isn’t a household name yet.

Their team made deploying my no-code projects feel effortless. With just one click, I can scale my infrastructure, and the pricing couldn’t be more affordable and straightforward. But the highlight for me has been the customer service. A heartfelt thanks to Thomas and the team for their fast, thorough, and incredibly helpful responses.

If you're considering Elestio, my advice is to go for it. The process has been quick, easy, and incredibly smooth for me. I couldn't be happier with my choice.

I have been trying over 10 similar services. This is the best one. Fastest and politest support.

Superb service! Excellent helpdesk!
Really suggested!

The support from Elestio is very fast and enormously helpful as one would wish. The simplicity yet flexibility impresses me a lot. The pricing model is also fair and transparent. 5 stars for Elestio!

Elest.io takes the stress out of service management. I was particularly impressed with their support team's ability to alter management and deployment ports, such that my service (SFTP) is available at its native port - something that is sort of an uncommon request. Elest.io delivered, and it is clear that they are willing to work with you to ensure your deployment is successful and reliable, even when your requirements are unique.

I've been looking to deploy a self hosted Jitsi Web Conferencing Server, but the more I read in the Jitsi forums, the more I became convinced it was above my paygrade. I've got some technical aptitude but I'm business guy and not an IT guy. Anyway after googling around to find someone who could instal Jitsi for me onto a Digital Ocean VPS, I came across Elest.io They offered multiple VPS providers and in the end went with another Hertzner instead of DO and from time of decision to installation was literally just a couple minutes with a brief delay to approve my account. I didn't have to do anything except set my CNAME at my hosting company to point to my Jitsi installation. It was quick, painless and successful. Once I started playing with Jitsi, I realized I needed to make a couple of customization tweaks and although Elestio offer multiple levels of customer support, and I started with the lowest tier - they helped me with both SSL certificates and the tweaks I needed to make almost live time. I am more than impressed and far greater than happy. I calculated what a Jitsi installation would have cost had I done it myself vs having Elestio do it for me and the difference is roughly $28 a month. That's just $325 a year for a Dev Ops support team. It would have cost more than that to find someone on fiverr and there would be no ongoing support. Had I done it myself I'd likely still be pulling my hair out 3 days later. Instead, I've been up and running and couldnt be happier.

I am extremely pleased with the Elestio product line and the customer service. Their implementation is more simple and easy to start (for those non-techy) compared to other self-hosting services that I've tried. I had some minor set up issues that the team handled promptly. They go above and beyond by reaching out to check and make sure all my questions are answered and needs are met. I run a busy medical practice and plan to introduce their products into my patient base to build an online community. I am confident knowing I can grow with Elestio and also refer to them as I spread the word of self hosting.

Love it, I haven’t come across a more complete platform where you can spin up an instance of any open source software within minutes.

I was amazed the dashboard even gives you access to VS Code for editing, a file explorer, terminal..however you need to access it you can.

The support is also great, I managed to migrate woocommerce/wordpress shop over in few hours with the help.

Soo glad I found elestio and highly recommend it!

I did something wrong with my n8n server. Elestio support quickly responded and fixed the issue within 4 hours.

Thanks to elestio we were able to migrate all our GitLab projects to a self-hosted instance in a short time, cutting costs effectively

I had a problem with custom domains for a specific service and all problems were solved within a few hours .

A few days ago I registered an account, launched the free trial.
I activated a moodle site, and after an issue was quickly solved by the support team the moodle site was up and running.
Now I had an old moodle site on my webspace that I didn't know how to upgrade because of database and php version issues that I don't know how to handle ( I'm a teacher, I have some tech skills but not enough ). I decided I should try getting my old moodle data into this new site. I uploaded a backup...and it just worked 🙂 I've just begun using elestio but so far I'm totally satisfied with the service and support. Thank you elestio. I hope more people will know about this platform.

I discovered Elestio 1 year ago and have been using it ever since to deploy most of my workloads, I started with prestashop and WordPress sites, I was very impressed by performance and the management dashboard. Then I discovered tons of other amazing open source available there like Typebot to create AI based chatbots. I would like to mention Thomas from support is amazing, he provided detailed answers very quickly (Rest of the team is also great but special thanks to him)

I was watching a demo video for a database project I'm working on and saw the host use this service. One click was all it took to install a database solution. As a non expert in this area, that caught my attention. I've been using Elestio ever since. Just this morning they fixed a small issue with one of the open source packages I was working on. Fast and easy. The team at Elestio is amazing. Give them a try.

I don't understand why this company is not better known. I have been using several shared hosting. I needed more speed but I didn't want the headaches of an unmanaged cloud hosting. So, et voila, here it is elest.io. Now I have a fast virtual server using first-class cloud hosting providers but fully managed, and for a price very close to my old shared hosting.

Also, I find the support second to none. Staff is super helpful, sometimes way beyond the call of duty, and easily approachable by email and also by discord chat, which gives the feeling that you will never be alone if you have a problem.

10 points for these guys!

Elestio is awesome: in two clicks we can deploy more than 100 popular open source tools!

It is a young company but with a great deal of passion for what they do!
The best part is that their discord and support are top-notch, so even when things aren't 100% working or, what counts is that they really do give their best all the time. Maybe a metric that can explain the service in the best way: the number of unsolved issues or issues that are solved in an unacceptable timeframe is 0.

Have recently started to use elest.io and am finding them brilliant so far.
I look forward to working with them in the coming months and will provide a more detailed feedback.
But as far as initial impressions go, they are very good :).
