WP-admin.cz
Internet craftsmen have given WordPress a substantial boost with the cloud
The company WP-admin.cz is active in the field of WordPress websites. It helps its customers with the operation of websites so that they are always in the best possible condition.
But this includes the ability to scale the infrastructure in such a way that servers and applications run smoothly and without problems. That is easier said than done because the Czech market is not fully equipped for such an approach.
Challenge
Hosting service providers on the local market got stuck in the phase one-server-offer-and-that’s-enough. But WP-admin.cz is a company that manages websites for a number of customers, so such an approach only led to a fragmented environment with which they needed to work efficiently.
The company needed a solution that would offer servers in different sizes, configurations and with different features. As they didn’t want to get services from global providers – Google and AWS – the possibility of CloudWays services, which the team had good experience with, also fell out of the game. The only option left for them was to find someone in the Czech field who would cover these needs.
But there were problems here. Standard providers offer the already mentioned fragmented environment, which, due to the higher complexity required by the company, is not very reliable and brings its own problems. The range of services and their features completely missed the needs of WP-admin.cz.
Solution
Result
WP-admin.cz therefore changed one parameter of its requirements – it did not search only among hosting solution providers. So a much bigger cloud door opened for the team and the CLOUDPOINT service was waiting in it.
In the IaaS version, CLOUDPOINT provides a unified platform for creating and managing individual servers that can be easily scaled and the company can thus grow much more comfortably. The transparency of the pricing policy, including the amount of unit prices, was also a pleasant surprise. Getting the most bang for the buck.
CLOUDPOINT exactly met the needs of the WP-admin.cz team. The benefits are as follows:
- Exact coverage of needs
- Czech company
- The data remains in the Czech Republic
- Environment consolidation
- One invoice
- Easy scaling
This last point is related to the ability to scale according to the needs, not according to the default configurations of providers. WP-admin.cz alluded to this, because the order for a new server often included only the second same server, although the need was completely different.
Although the transition was more challenging, because every change requires effort and time. Normal operation quickly saw the release of capacities, so the team can finally tackle projects for which there was no space left.
