Great Potential as a Managed WordPress Host

This is only my initial review upon the first impression. UI is easy to read there are a couple of options I wish I can see for more developer-specific needs

I did question SSH and they mentioned it can be requested through tickets. This is great news for those that like the command line. Nothing in the UI that would allow us to enable it on the fly, but perhaps it is coming soon.

Staging and Development is something I've always liked and wanted, but can never get that workflow when doing standard cPanel type hosts. I've Tried Pantheon, WPEngine, and Liquid Webs' Managed WordPress, They all have the ability to create staging and dev sites, but there are not very many that allow you to push and pull site data. back and forth between environments.

Pantheon and WPEngine were the only ones that allow that as much as I test. Point is, I don't see the ability to push and pull data between environments (Correct me if I'm wrong)

SSL works, at first I thought it did not provision SSL correctly or force SSL on the site, but Cloudflare adds a layer of complexity and don't forget your browser cache, always check in incognito.

Anyways, so far so good always check yourself before blaming the web host for something not working.

Overall:
- Make SSH able to be enabled
- Make PHP versions selectable
- Allow environments to push and pull changes
- Be able to add sites and work in them on the temporary subdomain URL (domain-com-host.wpsuperhost.com) rather than making us update the domain right away.
- It's not clear on the PHP limitations
- Are we allowed to edit these limitations?
- It's not clear if the servers use Apache .htaccess or Nginx user.conf files

This is just a quick overview of my initial impression. As I experiment more I will add more.

I've added your points here to that research bucket as they are all great ideas!

Regarding the PHP limitations, a quick support ticket to our team with a request to change these is all you need. Also, we are using Nginx user.conf files for all new site installations.
