Evermade specialises in concepting, design, implementation, analytics, and digital marketing of world-class online services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the start, Evermade built its services on a variety of providers from cheap web hotels to complex AWS deployments. As the company grew, it needed to unify the processes and centralise the services on a single provider. Web hotels could not provide the required flexibility and the convoluted services at AWS proved unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, Evermade chose UpCloud. The <a href=\"https:\/\/upcloud.com\/global\/support\/\">great customer service<\/a>, easy-to-use control panel, ability to scale servers, <a href=\"https:\/\/upcloud.com\/global\/products\/simple-backup\/\">simple backup<\/a> options, transparent <a href=\"https:\/\/upcloud.com\/global\/pricing\/\">pricing<\/a>, and great server performance were some of the main advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All development work in the cloud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Evermade\u2019s main technology platform is WordPress. The company has built hundreds of WordPress websites that are hosted on UpCloud. The majority of the services run on individual hosts that are&nbsp;configured and scaled as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similarly, Evermade\u2019s development environment is hosted in <a href=\"https:\/\/upcloud.com\/global\/data-centers\/\">UpCloud\u2019s data centres<\/a>. All of Evermade\u2019s development work is done in the cloud \u2013 nothing is run on local workstations. Every developer in Evermade\u2019s team has an identical development environment, which helps to avoid issues with common configuration differences. The developers also have access to their teammates\u2019 development setups, which allows them to easily help out each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More efficient and environmentally friendly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cloud-based company infrastructure has provided many benefits. For example, working remotely is a breeze, since the company\u2019s work is not tied to any office location or even a specific computer. With the current network speeds, the latency between developers\u2019 laptops and data centres located in Helsinki is not an issue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAlthough we are paying for the cloud capacity, it\u2019s nothing compared to the savings we are able to make due to the improved efficiency. UpCloud also gave us the idea to shut off our server environment for the night. This is better for the environment as it conserves energy. It also allows us to save about 20% on server costs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jaakko Alajoki, CTO at Evermade<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to the clear pricing and easy-to-use control panel, it is possible to quickly scale servers at any time. And when there\u2019s any need for assistance, UpCloud\u2019s support is ready to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCommunication in case of a failure is also important to us and UpCloud has always been exemplary in communicating and handling rare incidents.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jaakko Alajoki, CTO at Evermade<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Evermade is a\u00a0comprehensive digital partner\u00a0that helps brand realise their online potential.
