Netlify Likes & Dislikes

Like

Simple interface with powerful capabilities underneath. The visual on-the-glass editing is very powerful and a leader in the industry. Their ability to interface with multiple CMS platforms is also a big advantage for importing and sharing CMS assets.

Like

As I have mentioned in my overall experience, it is simple and fast to deploy using Git repositories. Integration options, build settings and customisable deployments make the workflow easy. The most liked part of Netlify is that the free tier is robust and not that complex so it gets very easy on the pockets for startups, small teams or a developer like me.

Dislike

Their AI roadmap is not coming as fast as we wish it to be in this stage.

Dislike

Advanced domain management features are limited to the premium version of the account and not for the free tier so features like DNS etc are not customisable for the free tier version. Trouble debugging server-less functions as logs and errors are not as easy to access as they are in a back-end environment. There is a log command for the errors but it lacks depth. Also, Netlify is not for large-scale products as it only serves small front-end projects and not back-end heavy projects.

    My overall experience with Netlify was good as a front-end developer. Most of my web applications are hosted on Netlify and it is the fastest way to host it efficiently.
