Vercel
The platform that made Next.js deployment trivial
Next.js / Platform · Freemium
What's Good
Preview deployments for every PR changed how teams review frontend work. Edge functions, image optimization, and analytics are built-in. The DX improvements compound over time. Vercel investment in Next.js means new framework features work perfectly on day one.
The Catch
Vendor lock-in is real, and costs scale with success. Bandwidth and serverless function invocations add up quickly for high-traffic apps.
Verdict
Worth the premium if you ship fast and iterate often.
