A great tool to manage servers
So far it's been great. They have a cool team, they have an exciting roadmap, and they listen to us users.
PROSBunnyshell 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).
CONSThere 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.
Reason for choosing Bunnyshell
More app install options, multiple organizations per account, teams, pricing.

Easy to use server deployment
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.
PROSI 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.
CONSI 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.
Reason 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
To begin with frustrating but then delighted with the speed and access to all parts of the server.
PROSSpeed of servers Life Time Deal is amazing Support was as good as any I have had elsewhere
CONSConfusing 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.
Reason for choosing Bunnyshell
The price was outstanding. I wanted to offer my clients better faster hosting at a reasonable price.

Really Easy to Setup Config Your Webservers
Overall happy. Does what it supposed to do without much bugs.
PROSThe 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.
CONSThere 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.

Great Potential & First-Class Support
I'm pleased with my experience of BunnyShell so far. It's a server management platform that's still in its infancy. Even so, it can do some pretty impressive things already. The support team have been fantastic! Honestly, that's what has me sold on BunnyShell.
PROSI'm excited to see how the product develops over the next 6-12 months. With BunnyShell it's already easy to setup VMs and implement auto-scaling clusters on a variety of vendor platforms including AWS, Digital Ocean, Microsoft Azure and Vultr. They've got a promising roadmap full of big ideas, so hopefully there's more to come. The potential to save time/money over using competitor platforms is a massive incentive, plus they have a first-class support team too.
CONSThe Dashboard can be sluggish and the overall UI/UX could use a refresh. The system still has a few bugs, but these do get resolved fairly quickly. Developer docs need more comprehensive content.
Reason for choosing Bunnyshell
Price, potential and their support.
Reasons for switching to Bunnyshell
RunCloud is a solid platform, but I've been frustrated with their lack of innovation and how they tier the features of their paid subscription plans.
