Linode's biggest selling point to me is the simplicity of their pricing page: you don't need a PhD to figure out what services are available and how much they cost. I also like how the customer service team is both friendly and knowledgeable. There's no problem I have faced that they haven't been able to help me fix (very handy for those of us coming to Linux from Windows). Their services are reliable (I have one node that's been up for 11 months without any interruptions in service). The network transfer they offer is super generous and is a big selling point for those of us who dream of launching large internet-scale services. Finally I like how they get better over time (e.g. recent Cloud Firewall and VLAN additions) and do so slowly but surely. You can't go wrong with Linode!

Have been experiencing packet loss and random freezing of my infrastructure in Newark for over a year. When contacting support, even after notes are attached to the account, the onus seems to be on me to reprove the issue. Over a year of being told it was due to a bug with one of their partners or a problem communicating between a legacy and nextgen networks. Over a year of unreliable service and not being able to use the service as advertised due to these issues. Over a year of looking stupid in front of a client who wanted to move to AWS when the problems first surfaced. Have been a Linode client for about 10 years or so, service used to be stellar and bomb proof. Last 2 years or so (2019 - 2021) not so much.

Linode is just easy to use! I needed a system for personal use that had good power and was still affordable. I picked my plan, then my operating system, tweaked a few disk partitions and let it rip! In a few minutes I had a shell as root on my new OS. both the web console and SSH console (LISH) work well for access using key access. I also like having the ability to alter the DNS reverse lookup for the IP address to make my system look more legit to other users. I have been a customer for ten years and have never had a complaint. My Linode just works.

My business has been experiencing cash flow issues so we are unable to pay our bills exactly when they become due. I recently requested an extension on my bill payment and was promptly granted it without question. I gather that the Linode Team understands the issues that small businesses like mine have been experiencing due to the COVID 19 pandemic so they are always willing to lend a helping hand.

I've been hosting with Linode since 2010 without any issue. Customer support is always fast and reliable. I have never experienced any downtime that was significant. The management tools they provide are enough for all my necessities and the price is totally affordable. TL;DR: I love Linode.

I've been hosting my email server for 3 domains almost 2 years now, never had an uptime issue and the security that Linode offers is top notch.

Linode understands their customers well. They offer great products, responsive support, and transparent pricing. I've been a happy customer for many years and hope to launch a larger project on Linode soon!

We have used Linode for years now, and they have delivered stable services for a reasonable price. They are also super helpful, and really listen to what we need. When there are issues, their tech support is reaponding super fast and bring a lot of expertise to the table. It feels like Linode is just a part of our team.
