Pros

  • Some good server monitoring options are also available. From NGinx to OpenLiteSpeed and many other technologies can be used, and it's super easy to configure.

  • We are looking to reduce our hosting cost and BunnyShell will be the perfect solution while they are taking care of the servers, we are taking care of the WordPress websites.

  • I like the UX and how easy it is to navigate the site, setup a new server and setup a new application. You can find easily what you are looking for and the support is amazing.

  • I would happily recommend Bunnyshell more as your business partner, and not as a service provider. Thank you for our beautiful collaboration.

Cons

  • I had a bit of a technical problem setting up an app on a server, but I was helped tremendously by the team.

  • They are still missing features compared to the competitor but, at the speed they are making changes, it will be not time that they will be equal or above.

  • The Dashboard can be sluggish and the overall UI/UX could use a refresh.

  • Confusing dashboard for a beginner - I thought that a web server was meant to deal with Wordpress installations, turns out that a VM (virtual machine) was the correct way to go.

"A great tool to manage servers"

Overall: So far it's been great. They have a cool team, they have an exciting roadmap, and they listen to us users.

Pros: Bunnyshell has tons of options and features to make managing servers a lot easier. I no longer have to worry about the technicalities of managing VPS instances (SSH, running scripts, setting up domains, SSL's databases..). There are a tons of CMS', tools, and frameworks that can all be installed with 1 click (Mautic, Wordpress, Ghost, Laravel, Nextcloud, etc).

Cons: There is no dedicated "Wordpress" optimized stack that I'm aware of. I wish there was more security implemented like 2FA for account access, fail2ban and malware scanning/protection on the servers. I had a bit of a technical problem setting up an app on a server, but I was helped tremendously by the team.

Alternatives Considered: Cloudways
Reasons for Choosing Bunnyshell: More app install options, multiple organizations per account, teams, pricing.

"Easy to use server deployment"

Overall: Overall, Bunnyshell was the first server deployment app that I really was able to grasp and enjoy using. Connect it to a Digital Ocean droplet or other provider, and you have a fairly low cost semi-managed hosting environment that is scalable. The idea that I can deploy a server with everything already configured for the app I want is great. No guessing or messing.

Pros: I love that there are different options for deploying depending on how you want to configure your server. You can set different server technologies along with preset apps or other options and completely customize your server. You can choose a preset designed to run a particular app like WordPress or Mautic, or you can set up an app-less server if you prefer the more manual approach. Some good server monitoring options are also available. From NGinx to OpenLiteSpeed and many other technologies can be used, and it's super easy to configure.

Cons: I would like to see more apps available and a few more technologies like MariaDB. They have gradually added new apps and options, so I think they are getting there. But it would be nice to see a few more missing pieces get filled in.

Alternatives Considered: Cloudways
Reasons for Choosing Bunnyshell: The cost was a little better for me, and they had a few apps available in their lineup that made it easier to use with less configuration needed.

"My experience with BunnyShell"

Overall: To begin with frustrating but then delighted with the speed and access to all parts of the server.

Pros: Speed of servers Life Time Deal is amazing Support was as good as any I have had elsewhere

Cons: Confusing dashboard for a beginner - I thought that a web server was meant to deal with Wordpress installations, turns out that a VM (virtual machine) was the correct way to go. Difficult to connect domain initially until support guided me through. Learning the proper way to direct a domain from registrar, to cloudflare and then to Bunnyshell, plus the SSL config was included in a tab called certificates rather then SSL - probably should have realised that but was not obvious.

Reasons for Choosing Bunnyshell: The price was outstanding. I wanted to offer my clients better faster hosting at a reasonable price.

"Easy to Manage multiple cloud servers from a single dashboard"

Overall: Overall I'm happy with the Bunnyshell product and team. I hope they will add more features for WordPress users in future.

Pros: Bunnyshell has great features. Now they added two-factor authentication on their platform. And also they recently raised funding because of investors like the Bunnyshell team. I can able to manage multiple cloud platforms and clients on a single dashboard. They have a great team and they helped me to solve a lot of issues related to servers and my website.

Cons: On Bunnyshell currently support staff present on weekdays. Hope they will support weekends also in future.

"Really Easy to Setup Config Your Webservers"

Overall: Overall happy. Does what it supposed to do without much bugs.

Pros: The near-automated setup for the popular tools like Wordpress is really straightforward, even for those with little to no technical dev ops knowledge. Bunnyshell makes it simple to connect the different popular cloud hosting providers like Digital Ocean, Upcloud, etc and how the user/implementor has to do is choose the hosting location, software to be installed and database. Serversite backups can be done with your own preferred providers like S3 Amazon. Unlike others, no forced lock-in to use their backup services.

Cons: There are some workflow which can be pretty odd. For wordpress installation and management instance, the wordpress admin credentials do not automatically update within Bunnyshell system, when you changed. This can be quite confusing.
