Overall Satisfaction with Linode
Linode is used by our technical team for hosting software and websites which we make. Linode is easy to use and anyone with basic knowledge could use it to host any kind of software or website with good performance, optimization, and speed. It is good to use, but the problem we get while using it to host is sometimes the server didn't respond back or stay offline which occurs a little but sometimes results in great loss, especially when we have to show work to our clients.
- Automatic data backup.
- DDoS protection: We stay protected from Distributed Denial of Service attacks.
- NodeBalancers for balancing the traffic.
- It is cheaper and better than other hosting servers like AWS.
- NodeBalancers are surprisingly expensive compared to VMs.
- Lots of un-useful emails from Linode.
- Being able to earn good profits from hosting my project online.
Being able to run my creations online, being able to show them to clients and to millions of users on the worldwide web, gives a great opportunity and I am highly satisfied. Further being able to scale and optimize the servers, performance, and add additional ones has been really great! I find their overall Customer Support, and infrastructure to be extremely amazing.
It is essential for users! Recently, several servers in India have had technical issues and others are a little costly, I haven't seen any major issue in the servers I am using. I think I would prefer Linode, as they had fewer issues, but despite it all, Linode is normal like others available in the market.

No, I never ever purchased premium support as I never had the need to do so. Their support is very good, so they never let the user feel like that they have to pay for getting a solution to their problem or the need to purchase a premium product to be able to talk to the Customer Support team.
Yes, once our company was in a meeting with our new clients and we had to show them our work, but, that time, the Linode server was inactive which let us lose the deal and money. We shared the concern with Linode and they provided us with some coupons to be used for extending our Linode package.
