Why Choose FlyWP Over RunCloud?

FlyWP is built exclusively for WordPress, providing top-tier performance, security, and ease of use. With Docker-
based on site isolation, WordPress-specific firewalls, built-in backups, and a clean, intuitive interface.

WordPress-Specific Optimization

Every feature in FlyWP is built with WordPress users in mind. From seamless plugin management to optimized workflows, managing one site or hundreds becomes effortless and efficient.

Hardened Security with Docker Isolation

FlyWP uses Docker to keep sites isolated and secure, making updates easy and safe. If one site gets compromised, the breach is physically contained. Your other sites remain untouched and invisible to the threat.

Developer-Friendly Features

Built for WordPress developers, FlyWP offers WP-CLI access, Bedrock support, and GitHub push-to-deploy – so you can ship faster and work smarter.

Centralized WP Management (The Agency Dashboard)

Manage Core, Plugin, and Theme updates across all sites on all servers from a single dashboard.

Why FlyWP is the Stronger Choice for WordPress

If your business runs on WordPress, you don’t need a “general PHP” panel. You
need a platform that understands the specific resource, security, and workflow
requirements of a WP-driven agency.

I have been enjoying FlyWP. The simplicity ease of use and features are top-notch. I’ve used Gridpane & Runcloud and I must say this stacks up. They have Litespeed on the roadmap. Hopefully, early supporters will benefit from that. It would be good if lower tiers could add at least a couple of team members, but other than that I’m enjoying the journey.

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 & It is a great tool indeed. 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 super quick…Highly recommended!

It’s great and it’s just the beginning! Through the years, I’ve used various hosting providers to ensure my WordPress sites are fast, secure, and easy to manage. I started with shared hosting, but quickly switched to a dedicated server (with cPanel), then managed cloud hosting (Cloudways), and now I have my own VPS that are managed with CloudPanel. I recently found FlyWP, and it seemed like the next step. Now, we can manage our servers with ease and in a cost-effective way. Backups, SSL, Cloudflare integration…I think this is a must-have for anyone who wants to quickly create WordPress sites and easily manage their VPS with ease.

FlyWP is the perfect solution to simplify VPS management. The process of configuring Vultr and Cloudflare to connect to FlyWP is very easy to learn. This is highly valuable, especially for those who are new to server management or for those looking for ways to streamline the process. I have planned to migrate all my sites from shared hosting to FlyWP.

I like FlyWP as a good alternative for other services that are quite expensive. I don’t have much experience using VPS, but it was quite easy to deploy a couple of servers and launch a few sites using FlyWP.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’m glad that I bought this deal.
