FlyWP Reviews

I recently tried FlyWP, and I have to say, it's been a huge disappointment. The first red flag was when I discovered that most of the positive reviews on AppSumo and TrustPilot are fake. FlyWP offers rewards in exchange for glowing reviews and constantly urges users to leave 5-taco ratings. This manipulative tactic makes it hard to trust any of the feedback you see online.

Beyond the shady review practices, the actual product is riddled with problems. The panel is full of bugs and vulnerabilities, making it a risky choice for server management. In contrast, aaPanel, a free server management tool, outperforms FlyWP by miles. aaPanel is reliable, feature-rich, and secure – everything FlyWP claims to be but isn't.

Save your time and money. Stay away from FlyWP and go for aaPanel instead. It's a far superior alternative.

FlyWP has been a game-changer for my WordPress hosting needs. The setup was incredibly smooth, and the platform's speed and reliability are top-notch. I've had zero downtime, and the security features give me peace of mind. The customer support team is outstanding – they respond quickly and are always helpful. I also love the user-friendly interface, which makes managing my sites a breeze. Features like automated backups and staging environments are super handy. Overall, FlyWP provides excellent value and has made my website management effortless. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid WordPress hosting solution.

I have been using FlyWP for a few days now and have gotten a first impression of the application. It is a game changer! Goodbye expensive managed web hosting. Renting your own server is easy. Installing Wordpress on it is not quite as easy. Setting up multiple sites on the server without the expertise is very difficult. With FlyWP, it's just child's play! Many thanks to the team, this is a really great application!

This is exactly what i needed to launch my web design agency. I had issues building my personal site via a local environment. This solves some of those issues using a remote environment instead. This app will make the process of building sites much more manageable, plus it has a clean interface. Folders are needed for the servers and sites, and support can be a bit slow at times, but overall, this app is extremely valuable.

I like FlyWP as a good alternative to other services that are quite expensive.
I don't have much experience using VPS, but deploying a few servers and launching a few sites using FlyWP was quite easy.
Of course, there are some more things I would like to see, such as more native integrations with service providers such as Hivelocity, NetCup, AlwayzOn, HostUp, and OVH. Also, adding support for Litespeed servers. And more work on patching security issues. But I do believe that the service is rather new, and the team is and will be working hard to make it better.

I use FlyWP since a few days with a Hetzner Cloud server. Insatllation was easy and everything works fine, a very good solution for me to setup testing and development sites.
Highly recommend it!

This is a very nice product. I truly loved it! Its like cloudways for a lifetime deal. Cloudways charges extra above the charges by digitalocean to provide their services like server managment. FlyWP is exactly like cloudways and it comes for a lifetime deal. You just need to simply link it with your cloud account. Thats it. If you're thinking to purchase this, then trust me you would also love it!

Hey WordPress folks! 👋 Let me tell you about FlyWP - it's been a total game-changer for me:

🚀 Cloning pages and making new ones is crazy fast 🔄 Staging sites pop up in no time for easy testing 🎛️ One dashboard to rule 'em all - I can manage tons of sites on different servers
🛠️ Dev-friendly stuff like Bedrock support and Git integration
☁️ Works with pretty much any cloud host you can think of

And the support team? Absolute legends. Always there when I need 'em.

If you're juggling multiple WordPress sites, trust me, you need this in your life. It's saved me so much time and stress, it's not even funny.

I'm really impressed at how quickly a WordPress site could be set up on a cloud server via FlyWP. With plenty of seamless optimisations (Object Caching, OPCaching etc) and easy management of SSLs & backups, this is a solid choice for anyone running WordPress on a cloud server.

Lovely and clean UI also!

A really easy to use admin panel for my Wordpress websites!

It took about an hour and a half from signing up, creating a new server and migrating two sites across to flyWP.

The Fly service is super easy to use and makes administration of my sites a breeze.

I’ve halved my server costs because I can now manage things myself instead of needing a fully managed service.

Once upon a time I was a very tech savvy individual and could spin up an entire WP site within a day. Somewhere in my career path, I lost that skill and would burn hours and hours trying to figure out how to even spin up an instance of Wordpress on Name.com and Cloudflare where I save my domains. FlyWP makes that possible with quite literally a click of a button. My review is as basic as it gets, I don't understand all the industry jargon for putting up websites, but I understand that my time is precious and FlyWP helps solve that for me. Thanks FlyWP!

I was surprised with FlyWP's simplicity and straightforward approach to creating and managing Wordpress websites. The interface is clean and options don't get in the way. I love that there's Dark Mode as well. Adding a new server is also easy and fast, so you can focus on what really matters. Magic Login works all the time, and they recently implemented a major improvement in SSL certificate management. Backup works with S3-compatible storage systems. This is preferable than plugins inside Wordpress. I wish they can implement one-click Restore as well. It's still a WIP and I'm looking forward for great improvements! I just love FlyWP. :)

So far I'm pretty impressed. I had to SSH into a custom server myself initially, but it was very simple, and the setup went seamlessly. It was almost too easy - I migrated a site and repointed the domain - I had to double check that I was actually live on the new server.
They provide helpful instructions on migration etc. This seems like a very good deal for what they're offering - happy to recommend.

Great experience with FlyWP. Loving the features and that Litespeed is on the roadmap. Hopefully, early supporters will benefit. It would be good to be able to add at least a couple of members on lower tiers for development access.
Amazing journey so far!

After running multiple VPS servers (managed and unmanaged) with a whole lot of providers I was looking to consolidate and save $$$. Fortunately FlyWP popped up at the right time.

I have found the setup seamless connecting to, so far just 2 x VPS from Contabo which is not an officially supported service provider but setup was seamless using the custom server option.

The feature set is good for a relatively new platform but the developers are very active on their FB group which gives me confidence that this will be feature full within the year.

5 stars from me as so far my experience has been great and I feel my money on the Tier 2 (contemplating moving up also) has been well spent.

Through the years, I've used all kinds of hosting providers to ensure my WordPress sites are fast, secure, but also easy to manage. I started with shared hosting, but quickly switched to a dedicated servers (with cPanel), then managed cloud hosting (Cloudways), and now I have my own VPSs that are managed with CloudPanel.

Recently, I found FlyWP, and it seemed like the next step to take. Now, we can manage our servers with ease and in a cost-effective way.

Backups, SSL, Cloudflare integration... This is just the beginning. The FlyWP team is constantly working on upgrading our experience and providing more useful features.

I think this is a must-have for anyone who wants to quickly create WordPress sites and easily manage their VPS.

My own experience.
I first tested FlyWP in Trial mode, and finally bought a license.
It’s a very good tool to help developers to quickly create/clone Wordpress Site.
Not tried yet but cool be also used on production, product looks robust enough.
FlyWP includes a lot of good features that help the final user.
About support, they are reactive and when the question is too tricky they forward the ticket to the Development team.

My environment :
. Server : self hosted server, (cloud providers was not tested yet)
. Backup : Minio S3 Server (S3 compatible)

Features tested :
. Connect to self hosted server
. deploy Wordpress, php 82
. with SSL deployment (good to have DNS check before SSL)
. cache activation
. file change with file browser
. Maintenance page
. clone Wordpress instance
. manual and automatic backups
. Wordpress auto admin login via FlyWP WebUI

Lack of some features, but a roadmap is available and any customer can contribute.

Good product, good job.

FlyWP came at the perfect time, just when I needed to switch my server control panel on Vultr. After evaluating several options, I decided to give FlyWP a try, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice.

What impressed me the most about FlyWP was how easy it is to install WordPress on a VPS. But that’s not all; migrating my sites was hassle-free and, most importantly, there was no downtime.
FlyWP saved me the tedious process of configuring the hosts file on my computer.

FlyWP offers both security and caching sections, which are incredibly easy to activate, ensuring optimal performance and protection for my websites. Installing SSL certificates is extremely quick, allowing me to secure my pages in just a few minutes. Although FlyWP currently supports a limited number of servers, the custom implementation works flawlessly. I hope to see support expand to more providers in the future.

I would love to see FlyWP include options for backups to services like OneDrive or Google Drive; this would be a very useful addition for many users.

FlyWP is a product that is heading in the right direction. Highly recommended!

I’ve been tinkering around with the platform and love it so far. It doesn’t have all features I need yet, but a lot of the features are on the roadmap. What is currently in product shows a lot of promise and I’m really looking forward to the continuous development of this platform. One of the features that popped out to me is you can set different PHP versions per site. On cloudways it’s one php versions per server. So that definitely was a plus in my book! Plus the ability to utilize any vps platform is really nice! Definitely grab this deal before it expires if you’re a website agency.

I'm impressed with FlyWP! The interface is aesthetic, clear and intuitive. All functions easily accessible. With FlyWP, managing servers and WordPress websites is pure pleasure. You won't find anything better on the market at a similar price - don't miss this opportunity!
