Frequently asked

Is Vercel cheaper than Netlify for a small SaaS?

For low-traffic SaaS both Hobby/Free tiers cover the basics; costs diverge once you exceed bandwidth or function execution caps. Check the head-to-head on the Vercel vs Netlify compare page for current numbers.

Which hosting platform has the most generous free tier?

Vercel, Netlify, and Fly.io all offer free tiers with different shape: Vercel/Netlify favor static + serverless, Fly is closer to a small VM. Render and Railway lean more toward always-on services and have stricter free tiers.

How fast do these platforms ship new features?

Vercel and Railway ship multiple changelog entries per week on average; Netlify and Render are closer to weekly; Fly.io is more sporadic but high-impact. See the /changelog feed for live cadence.

Do any of these hosts charge for inactive projects?

Render and Fly.io can incur charges for always-on services even when idle. Vercel, Netlify, and Railway free tiers do not — but watch for bandwidth/build-minute overages.
