Should you switch?

Use it if

Self-hosters who already control servers and want a Heroku or Vercel style deployment layer over their own VPS or bare metal.

Skip it if

You want a zero-infra hosting product where someone else manages the servers and operational risk for you.

Watch out

Self-hosting Coolify still means owning the underlying servers; the managed cloud option is paid if you want that layer handled for you.

"We are a nonprofit and are in the process of switching all of our hosting over to Coolify. It's been great. We've moved 13 apps over to it so far."
