Civo

“Civo's blazing-fast cluster startup time, intuitive CLI, and clean UI were instantly appealing. But more than that, it gave us predictability in pricing, quick experimentation loops, and the ability to get a working SSD environment up and running within minutes. Their India region was another plus, allowing us to host certain workloads locally and comply with data requirements where needed.”

“It has been a pleasure working with Civo, they have been extremely helpful and responsive when we have any questions. Civo has been effective, efficient, and simple - they are easy to use and that makes it easy for us to spin up a cluster when we need.”

“Cost has been a major issue for us. We already have the hardware and infrastructure required, meaning we are constantly reviewing our TCO/OpEx for on-prem versus cloud. Civo is the first cloud provider that has allowed us to get closer to parity with on-prem costs.”

“The training materials on the Civo website and their webinars are valuable to us learning more about the platform.”

“We use Civo for production as well as quickly spinning up test clusters to try out new extensions and configurations. This has also allowed us to stage clusters for testing development releases outside of production.”

“Civo are not just reactive to our problems, they are ahead of our problems - when we have questions or concerns they are very quick in response and support us to find out what the issue is. It helps us to see if what we are trying to do isn't working right or if there is an issue with the system.”

“They are very easy to leverage with both launching clusters and the usability side of things.”

“Civo is very easy-to-use, with effective mechanisms to use Kubernetes and to spin up our clusters.”

“Civo has been a game-changer for us, reducing the time it takes to create Kubernetes clusters from minutes to seconds! This has significantly accelerated our development cycles and allowed our team to focus on delivering business value. The web based workloads deployed in Mumbai region provide lower latency and faster load times for us as compared to DigitalOcean”

““For us, Civo reduced our cloud spend by about 80% while increasing our operational efficiency... enabling our developers to focus more on innovation.””

“We see Civo as the backbone of this expansion. As we move into transaction handling, we will leverage Civo's high-availability clusters to ensure our mobile app delivers institutional-grade reliability and security for every trade.”

“Civo's partnership goes beyond infrastructure - it's credibility. As we build trust with Indian retail investors, having a cloud partner that prioritizes data sovereignty and transparent pricing aligns perfectly with our brand promise of honest, simplified investing”

“Previously, we relied on Vercel for frontend and AWS Lambda for backend tasks. While convenient for prototyping, costs spiraled as our user base grew. Moving to Civo’s fixed-node Kubernetes pricing dropped our monthly infrastructure bill by ~70%. We now pay for raw compute capacity, not for every API call or gigabyte of data transferred. This predictability is vital for a bootstrapped startup”

“In fintech, you usually have to choose between moving fast (serverless) or being robust (enterprise cloud). Civo allows us to do both. We can deploy new AI models and microservices in minutes using their rapid cluster launch times, while their managed infrastructure ensures the high availability required for financial transactions.”

“One of the things that stood out to us was Civo's genuine commitment to our success. They were not just a service provider; they were a partner in our growth, invested in ensuring that our infrastructure scaled with us,” said Simpson.”

“The guidance and support we received from Civo was exceptional. They helped us affirm that Kubernetes was indeed the right path for us,” Simpson reflected. “Their engineers didn't just offer solutions; they took the time to understand our needs and tailor their support to our specific challenges.”

“With Civo, we were able to forecast our expenses and scale without any surprises. This level of predictability is invaluable for a startup managing tight budgets,”

“The transition to Civo was more than just a change of platform—it was an upgrade to our entire operational philosophy. Civo's Kubernetes expertise was evident, and their proactive support made a significant difference.”

“"It's just worked for us, right? We've just been able to use things as they are... This is familiar. I'm comfortable with this."”

“"We've had many conversations over time with engineers at Civo to make sure that we were using the GPU in the most effective way."”

““The first thing that drew us to Civo, of course, is that you had the right kind of GPUs that we needed””

“Our security teams ran very extensive tests against the Civo systems and applications to ensure there were no weaknesses. The results were excellent, and it gave us great confidence in hosting customer data with Civo.”

“FlexCore was a real breakthrough for data residency and sovereignty. Many of our customers require data to stay where it originated. FlexCore gives us the benefits of a public cloud in a private-region footprint: scalability, high-performance AI/ML, real-time threat analysis, built-in security and compliance, and predictable pricing.”

““Our experience with the Civo team has been spectacular… We're not even in the same time zone with half the team, yet we are able to get ahold of the team and get help either on the Discord or in the Slack channels very rapidly””

““The ability to set up and tear down quickly means that they do tear it down. When infrastructure is very hard to set up, there's a tendency in organizations to leave environments running for a very long time... So, with Civo, we were able to ensure developers are not held back by infrastructure.””
