Comment on Hosting for Node.js apps done right

Comments

This sounds like a joke to me.

1- "Hosting for Node.js apps done right": Like everything else is done wrong? That's just weird.

2- What does "designed for cloud" mean?

3- "Free support"? How gullible do you think we are? At 6e/mo, anyone that believes they're getting any kind of "Free support" is wrong. Or else this service is going to fail big time.

Now some constructive criticism: I see "FTP access". But as a dev, I would have liked to see something like FTPS, SFTP or better yet, SSH.

SFTP would be a better idea, but documentation says they do support FTPS: http://www.evennode.com/docs/ftp-access#tls

As for criticism... that they charge premium for TLS on custom domains. While this is probably reasonable business decision, it does community a bit of bad service - additional costs for security discourages users from having one. And TLS already has that bar quite high.

Exactly my thoughts - what about "Unlimited FTP access" - a revolutionarily feature that lets you deploy your app as many times as you want! Sign me up.

Did you really expect a service for node.js to not use meaningless buzzwords? :)
