At this point WPMU Dev does not have the best Wordpress hosting. In truth it's okay but not even nearing great let alone the best. A few things you should know: 1. Hard limits on disk space with no flexibility and no ability to add storage without upgrading and considering they use Digital Ocean and we all know how flexible and inexpensive DO storage is this is unacceptable. This is my number one reason why they are nowhere near a small business class host. 2. The support you'll receive is hit or miss. Of the most recent tickets I've had two were handled fairly well while the last two were abysmal failures and I had to seek help at my other host who handled it very quickly. 3. Do not switch all your hosting to WPMU Dev. Don't put all your eggs in their basket just yet. Maybe in a year or so when they get a few issues handled and hire far more knowledgeable support techs but right now avoid giving their hosting 100% of your sites. 4. Their plugins are generally pretty good but they're starting to open up premium versions of plugins to be freeware via wordpress.org and each time they do this they're essentially removing value from the $50 I pay a month (and I'm certainly not paying that for their hosting). 5. The Hub - it's okay. It's not great but it's easy to use and that's helpful. It's fairly limited in comparison to most other hosts. 6. I like the CEO and I think he's a cool guy with good intentions but I have noticed he has a tendency to promise things that they aren't offering or seem to be close to offering. He stated that their hosting service has free SSL certs - no they don't. Allegedly they will at some point in the future but not now. 7. You'll receive three $10 bronze plans and although their site also states that you'll receive $30 in hosting credits DO NOT try to use those hosting credits for the $25 hosting plan. And when you need more than 10 GB of disk space you'll have to upgrade and pay $15 extra a month just to receive an additional 5 GB so the math doesn't work on that at all.

Hey there, Thanks for your candid feedback. 1. We have created hosting plans with different tiers of technical aspects. Our lowest plan (Bronze) includes 10GB of SSD Storage. This is more than enough for the majority of "small-sized" websites too. Next tier, which is our Silver one includes 15GB of storage, twice the ram, and twice the CPUs Of course, we do understand how flexible it would be to upgrade different aspects selectively, and something we will consider for the future. 2. We weren't able to locate any accounts with your current information. If you could please email us at contact@wpmudev.org and provide more information on the tickets you're referring to, we'd be more than happy to investigate further. 3. True, our hosting is still in Beta to some extend, but the features and implementations we've done in such a short period of time say otherwise. We have many members that transferred all of their websites too. Also, you seem to be overly dissatisfied with our support, which is concerning on its own. Reviews that members leave on a daily basis also show otherwise, so if you could please reach out to us so we can better understand what you're referring to, we'd be more than happy to discuss this further and understand your feedback here. 4. While we understand your point of view, it doesn't reduce any value from the membership by us contributing to the WordPress community. The membership itself is a complete package, not just a "set of WP plugins". We have invested a lot in improving our products and services overall, and those contributions also play their part in allowing us to continue doing so as we get more valuable feedback from other users as well. Also, we do plan on bringing more premium features to our products down the line, so again, there isn't any actual decrease in the value, on the contrary. 5. Hub 2.0 is completely different from our old Hub, and once more, new features and implementations are piped up for release. 6. We do offer free SSL certificates. Perhaps you are referring to specific Multisite structures, with subdomains? If that's the case, then yes, this is the only limitation at the moment as mentioned in our documentation. However, we're already working on a solution for that too. 7. You don't receive three $10 Bronze sites. As part of your membership, you get $30 Free hosting credits that you can spend as you wish. So you could even create a Gold plan, and instead of paying $50, it would drop down to $20. As for storage upgrades, as previously mentioned, this isn't possible at the moment but something we may consider for the future. We do agree that it would be neat to have! Thank you once more for your candid feedback, and do reach out to us so we can discuss this further. Take care.

I have been using WPMUDEV for a while now and very happy with them. "Ashik" from support team helped a lot in solving my queries. Most of the other members have also been very helpful. The membership though can be a bit expensive at times especially during pandemic nowadays, hoping they would provide some discount or offers for continuing members at-least until COVID-19 time-period.

I've been using WPMU DEV for a variety of their performance and security tools, but only recently migrated a site from another big-name host. The migration process was easy. Tech support has been extremely helpful for a couple minor issues. And site performance was immediately better than on the previous host. It's still early days, but if things continue this way, I'll be migrating more sites in the near future.

I got some issues with bot spamming our website hosted at WPMU. So I got in contact with the live chat support team which are able 24/7. Mr.Rupok from the support team have been very friendly and try looking into each issues. By having a wpmu support team live chat available for almost any issue, it help a lot to try and solve the issue on-hand fast. And you got that comfortable feeling that someone are there to support you. I will continue moving my web design Clients websites to WPMU hosting, as this just proof how good support their are at WPMU. Also it's very easier to scale the hosting up and down to. Thank you!

It's crazy how skilled and helpful the support agents are. I'm using WPMU Dev only for the support, not even the plugins. The plugins are good as well, but the support is something I really need for little things I can't fix myself. Thanks Patrick Freitas for your outstanding support!
