Flywheel
Choose Flywheel if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (9.0 vs 8.4) and faster median TTFB in our probes (262 ms vs 445 ms). Client handoff and billing tools built for design agencies. On the trade-off side, no custom scripts or long-running tasks. Not a general VPS.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Should I pick Flywheel or HostGator?+
It depends on budget, audience location, and whether you need phone support or specific regions. Our overall scores are 9.0 vs 8.4; cross-check the table with your must-haves, then confirm renewals on the host's checkout.
Do you run live tests on both providers?+
Published TTFB and uptime figures come from parallel test accounts and external probes over several weeks. Storage and site limits reflect published grids checked in April 2026.
