My overall experience with Vercel is really great. I've hosted dozens of Next.js projects there without any major issues and most of them for free. Although, I wish they had a pay-on-the-go plan without a fixed pricing.

Pros

I really like how easy it is to deploy my Next.js apps on Vercel. You just connect your git repository and in a few minutes your project is online.

Cons

Sometimes the deployments fail without any obvious reasons. Also, I really hate it when a request hits the serverless function timeout limit.

Was going to move a bunch of my clients over I bought the V0 thinking that I could actually bring over the project because in v0 it tells you you can't bring over a project unless you pay so I bought it and it won't let you bring anything over because you can't host anything because you haven't paid for the hosting over at vercel. And they will not give you your money back there is no refund whatsoever I'm going to dispute this with a credit card company.

Pros

Nothing, it's a total scam rip off company.

Cons

V0.dev if you actually want to use this with your own code you have to buy vercel hosting and then buy v0.dev before you can bring over any of your own code. Otherwise you just wasting your time with some over jealous AI that just goes nuts and starts haphazardly designing code when you don't tell it to do anything burning up all your credits or messages.

Vercel Review

Reviewed on 2023/06/25

Pros

Makes everything for building and deployment extremely easy, our build times are considerably smaller (Sub 3 minutes) it has a lot of great features we use including Cron jobs and has made building considerably easy

Cons

Pricing, can be a bit expensive, I dont think you need to be on a pricing plan to truly get the good stuff out of Vercel, but if you're scaling you might need to be, things like not being able to run cron jobs more than once a day might be hampering.

I use it to track and managing our company website and mobile application. Managing code with Vercel is quite easy and it will automatically triggers the system anytime there are changes in the codes. Really helpful in managing and tracking any errors in the system.

Pros

Developing and deploying a frontend application using Vercel is is very effective in term of the cost and time spending. Integration with ember.js is smooth and has no issue in compatibility. The ability to shares the live preview of the website to client and team members in a single click really shortening the usual process that are long and stressful.

Cons

It will be confusing on how to use the platform for the first time, as not many guides and manual are available or provided by the software. I need to learn a new features and concept that only available in Varcel and not in other software which make me to spend some more extra hours to fully understand this platform capabilities.

Pros

If you're using a JAMStack framework, Vercel will scale you from startup all the way to enterprise. They have every feature you need when scaling up your app to cater to a global market.

Cons

Their pricing doesn't start too badly, but when you start getting towards their Pro and Enterprise tiers, which happens pretty quickly, they will rinse you dry.

One of the major benefits of Vercel is, it helps do website hosting at a reasonable cost. This makes it the first choice for developers working with budget constraints and early stage developers.

Pros

Vercel really shines when it comes to security and performance. Their hosting infrastructure is very reliable, which gives me peace of mind for my projects.
The best part? You get all of these in very afforable pricing.
The Free Plan is really a life-saver.

Cons

It's not all perfect though. During my recent project, I ran into some limitations with their edge functions. Unfortunately, this meant I had to look for alternatives for that particular project.

Cons

Complexity: Some users have found Vercel's interface and documentation to be overly complex, especially for beginners or non-technical users. The platform's powerful features can also make it challenging to configure and optimize for certain use cases.

Vercel is a dependable, user-friendly, high-performance platform that I wholeheartedly endorse to any developer looking to install and host their websites and applications.

Pros

Developers may easily explore the platform and launch their applications right away because to its user-friendly interface. The manual is highly extensive and offers simple-to-follow step-by-step instructions. Vercel's CDN and global edge network enable exceptionally quick website and application deployment and loading.

Cons

Despite the ease with which Vercel interfaces with other programmes and services, some programmers may find that the platform's limited support for databases and backend services prevents them from creating more sophisticated applications.Although the Vercel platform's support channels, such as email and community forums, are comprehensive and well-written, some developers may find that they are not as responsive as they would like.

For the basic and standard stuff they offer, they do a good job on. Once your use-case becomes a little more advanced and specific, you are on your own.

Pros

Easy to setup and good integration with github, especially the super quick and easy setup when pushing to a remote branch and automatic build deployments. The interface is also very intuitive and easy to use. Documentation is good.

Cons

Serverless monitoring and APM is severely lacking, even though vercel recommends Datadog and others, they only provide basic log management. There is no good way currently to setup APM. I also think vercel should provide more in house log management on top of the currently supported real time log tailing. Simple storage of logs shouldn't be that hard to achieve, this includes the request and response body of the logs, not the current one where the aforementioned items are left out. Additionally, serverless cold starts are a huge pain. And support for it is severely lacking. The documentation suggests some basics, and to use edge. But edge is hardly useful and highly situational as it does not support node apis. Which means you can't really do much with it. Support ticketing times are also really slow and not helpful, the best they can do is direct you to a documentation page that you have already visited prior to opening the ticket.

Deploying Next.js applications before meeting Vercel was a painful experience. Now it's not anymore.

Pros

Vercel created Next.js. So it's no surprise they came out with the best platform to deploy Next.js based web applications.The deploy runs smoothly and without any issue, nothing comparable to any other platform or internal configuration you could have tried.

Cons

Actually, as far as I can see... nothing. Since it is so Next.js oriented, maybe it cannot be the best choice if you just need to deploy a traditional React application. I found it difficult to handle socket based applications, too.

Vercel has taken the burden of deploying websites from our heads and give us all features for lowest costs in the market.

Pros

Vercel take cares of your deployments like magic. All you have to do is integrate the Source repository then Vercel compiles and deploy and gives you an endpoint to access the deployment. Vercel supports most of the frontend frameworks and backend frameworks. And you don't have to worry about scalability or server costs. Furthermore it comes with CICD pipelines where your commits will automatically be deployed.

Cons

It needs a feature which lets the user create a custom endpoint for secondary branch commits.
