If you love picking your own cloud but want flat, predictable pricing and a free white-glove migration, Webfloater is the leaner option. Same managed cloud model — DigitalOcean, Vultr, Hetzner, and more — at one honest price, with a 61-app open-source marketplace built in.
Cloudways is a solid managed host, and its pick-your-cloud model is exactly the approach we believe in too — you choose the cloud, they handle the servers. Here's where Webfloater is different: flat, transparent pricing you can watch update in a live calculator before you commit, a bigger open-source app marketplace, and free migration so switching costs you nothing.
Moving from Cloudways doesn't mean relearning how you host. The parts you like stay; the parts that frustrate you improve.
The model you already chose Cloudways for carries straight over to Webfloater:
Three things change for the better the day you move:
If you're happy on Cloudways, that's fine — but if flat pricing and a one-click app library matter to you, the move is free and takes about a day.
The four reasons people give us most often when they make the move.
One honest price per server — Launch $24, Grow $39, Scale $79, Power $149, or build your own. No surprises at the end of the month.
Not just WordPress — n8n, Ghost, Supabase, Nextcloud, databases, and dozens more open-source apps, each fully managed in one click.
We do the work and verify everything before switching DNS — zero downtime, usually finished within 24 hours.
DigitalOcean, Vultr, Hetzner, Amazon Lightsail, or Akamai — the same flat price and the same managed experience on each.
Pick the same provider you run on Cloudways today — the managed experience and the flat price are identical on each.
Usually within 24 hours, zero downtime — we verify everything before switching DNS.
Same pick-your-cloud managed model. Here's how the two compare, fairly — Cloudways is a capable platform, and we've kept its column accurate.
Cloudways pricing varies by server size; a comparable managed 4 GB plan elsewhere is often $50+/mo industry-wide, versus Webfloater's flat $39 Grow plan. Cloudways details are qualitative because its published pricing changes over time.
