Kinsta is one of my favourite partner for WordPress Managed Hosting
My company provides ecommerce as a Service. Before Kinsta, we had to manage the infrastructure all by ourselves. This is costly and very specific, so we choose to move to Kinsta and we never regret it. Kinsta took all our pain and helped us to grow from 20 sites to over 50 with ease.
PROSKinsta provides excellent support. This is my preferred feature. They also provide it in spanish, wich is very important for my not-so-fluent english staff. Beside support, they have a very solid infrastructre, and they know WordPress very well.
CONSPHP Workers are my main cause of troubles, specifically my site's shortage of them. I would love to add more php workers on demand easily.
Reason for choosing Kinsta
Spanish support was the feature that turn the scales.
Reasons for switching to Kinsta
AWS and Google Cloud are big beasts that needs to be tamed. Kinsta does this for us, much better than we use to do it.

Great Managed Platform for WordPress
I believe Kinsta team is doing a great work overall.
PROSKinsta gives a great management system for our WordPress sites, allowing us to focus on creating content and forgetting about backend issues. Great documentation on Kinsta help section.
CONSI think that the only con for certain users is the price. Maybe the price is a little bit high compared to similar platforms. Aside from that, everything is great so far.
Reasons for switching to Kinsta
Kinsta servers in Google Cloud was the reason we switched from.

Good, but poor support
Easy, sleek design of the GUI, useful staging feature
CONSThe user support isn't worth the name. Standard responses, permanent handovers, basic excuses, no in depth analysis.

Excellent Service
I changed to Kinsta because I was getting frequent attacks with my previous host. Those problems have disappeared with Kinsta. The only problems I've had was when there was an upgrade. Those problems have been quickly solved with Kinsta support.
PROSI changed to Kinsta after having problems with a previous host. I've been very happy with my choice. The transfer was easy. I've had very few problems. When something arose, the support chat with Kinsta has been excellent. I prefer phone support. However, the 24/7 chat support with Kinsta has worked in every case.
CONSI prefer talking on the phone instead of messaging.
Reasons for switching to Kinsta
Frequent attacks on my websites while with Bluehost.
Vendor Response
This is amazing to read, Jerrie! Thank you for sharing your experience. Sometimes people can be turned off by the lack of phone support, that is why it is crucial that they have access to experiences like yours, where they can read first-hand that our chat support feature actually works. Thank you for providing that insight for others who might be unsure about how to move forward with their hosting choices. And don't forget that we're always here to help whenever you might need it.
