How to choose

Which platforms fit my hosting setup?

Match the platform label to where you need to work: web, API, self-hosted or Linux. A self-hosted option can suit teams that run their own environment, while a web platform works in a browser.

1xINTERNET Multisite Management System lists web, API and self-hosted platforms.

Which website operations should I compare?

Compare multi-site management, deployment workflows, uptime monitoring, workflow automation and access controls before choosing.

These capabilities describe how a platform handles releases, site fleets, service checks, repeatable tasks and user permissions.

What pricing and trial terms should I check?

Check for a free plan, the starting paid price and whether pricing is provided on request. ManageWP Backup lists a free plan with paid service from $2 per month; WPMU DEV starts at $8 per month, Modular DS at $16 per month, and Pantheon at $41 per month on an annual plan.

Modular DS and WP Umbrella Backups list 14-day trials. Acquia Front End Hosting, Acquia Site Factory and WordPress VIP list pricing on request.

Does it provide an API or open-source code?

Use the API and open-source marks to check how the platform can connect with existing tools and whether its code can be inspected or changed.

The board also shows a free-tier mark, so you can separate a no-cost plan from a trial or a paid service.
