Outgrowing Cloudways?
Cloudways gives you a cloud server with a control panel — and leaves you the server admin. Belov Cloud is actually managed: an AI copilot watches every site, fixes what breaks, and the price never moves with your traffic or your RAM.
Cloudways manages the server; you still manage WordPress. Belov Cloud manages both — and heals the site on its own.
Cloudways resells cloud servers (DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS) with a panel on top. The base price looks small, but it's per server, sized by RAM you have to pick and outgrow — and the managed layer is thin: the WAF/CDN is a per-domain add-on, real support is a paid tier from $100/mo, and when a plugin update breaks your site at 2am, that's your job.
Belov Cloud vs Cloudways.
 | Cloudways | |

| Self-healing / auto-recovery | Included — AI fixes outages on its own | Not offered — you're the admin |
| Visual-regression monitoring | Included — AI pixel-diff + vision check | Not offered |
| WAF / edge security | OWASP WAF + CrowdSec + DDoS shield, included | Cloudflare Enterprise +$4.99/domain/mo |
| Support depth | Humans + AI, included on every plan | Base chat; Advanced $100/mo, Premium $500/mo |
| Transactional email | Platform email included | SMTP add-on, pay per 1,000 emails |
| Staging + push-to-live | Included, with safe push-to-live | Staging included (you manage it) |
| Team seats | Free — invite your whole team by role | Team feature varies by plan |
| Free white-glove migration | Byte-exact & lossless, AI-run, verified | One free migration, then paid |
| Real cost, fully equipped | $39/mo flat | $30–50/mo + add-ons — and you're still the WordPress admin |
A DO Premium server sized for a real store plus the Cloudflare Enterprise add-on lands in the same range as our flat price — before you price in your own hours doing the ops. Figures reflect the vendors' own published list prices (month-to-month) and can change — always check Cloudways's current terms. Annual billing lowers each base.
The same managed WordPress — that runs itself.
It heals itself
An AI copilot watches every site every minute and fixes issues on its own — rebuild cache, reissue SSL, restart a stuck runtime, deactivate a crashing plugin — instead of waiting on a support ticket.
Flat, no meter
One price every month. No per-visit overages, and attack or bot traffic is shed at the edge and never billed as if it were customers.
Free, lossless migration
A byte-exact copy — raw-byte mysqldump, immune to the escaping corruption a DIY plugin export causes on Elementor and serialized data (verified 0 corruption on a real site). Your site lands on the PHP version it runs today, and the AI proves it on a preview URL before you flip DNS — your old host stays warm until you do.
Global edge speed
Cached pages served from the nearest point of presence worldwide in ~5ms, backed by Redis object cache and OPcache JIT.
Real dev control
SFTP file access to live and staging, one-click PHP version switching, live access & error logs, and staging with push-to-live — included, not gated.
Your whole team, free
Invite teammates by role (Admin or Developer, scoped to specific sites) at no extra cost — no per-user fees.
The things people ask first.
Isn't Cloudways cheaper?
The sticker can be, if your site fits a small server. But the comparable setup — a properly sized server, the Cloudflare Enterprise add-on for WAF/CDN, backups — lands at or above our flat price, and none of it fixes a broken site for you. On Belov Cloud the ops, the security stack, and the AI that repairs outages are the product, not add-ons.
Will the move off Cloudways break anything?
No. We take a byte-exact copy — raw-byte database export, immune to the re-escaping that mangles Elementor and serialized data — and verify it route by route on a preview URL while your Cloudways server keeps serving. You flip DNS only when it passes.
I like having server control. What do I keep?
SFTP to live and staging, one-click PHP version switching (8.1–8.5), live access and error logs, a REST API and CLI, and staging with push-to-live. What you give up is being on call for a server at 2am.
Leave Cloudways this week.
Free migration, run by our AI and double-checked by our team. Flat pricing with no overage meter, and a site that keeps itself alive. If it doesn't pass every check, you don't switch.
