Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work abroad? Alongside providing flexible opportunities for remote work, UpCloud also supports employees with relocation. Read our colleague Filipe’s story of moving from Brazil to Finland.

“In 2021, a friend sent Filipe a job posting – UpCloud was looking for an Agile Team Coach join the company and be part of UpCloud’s growth journey. Now, over a year later”

The company was founded originally in 2013 and has since grown to be a half a million-euro business by revenue in eight years and is still hungry for growth. Today’s clients expect quality balanced with their cost expectations and we can offer the best solution in the market. UpCloud’s incredibly fast servers and very reliable hardware, bundled with almost 100% uptime, have not let us down.

Previous challenges

Managing WordPress sites in a shared environment is always a challenge as there are so many diverse websites and eCommerce sites. Therefore, hardware requirements, SLA and basic functionalities must support the business for us and our clients.

Initially, we tried to set up managed cloud services with a couple of known Finnish companies but there was always something missing. Either their services were down, or our customer’s server was unavailable when it was not supposed to be. Utilizing UpCloud’s server infrastructure is just stress-free and relatively affordable in relation to what you get compared to most of the competitors. Those are the core reasons why we chose UpCloud as our long-term partner.

Hosting on UpCloud

The adjustability of server resources is important to us as our client numbers grow on the server level and upgrading them on demand in UpCloud’s Control Panel is super easy. We have never had any hardware troubles after setting up cloud services in UpCloud and are proud to make use of renewable energy while still providing supreme hosting services for our client’s needs. UpCloud’s local data centres in Helsinki, Finland, enable ultimate speed benefits, especially for our domestic end-users.

The super fast MaxIOPS block storage helps us and our clients to quickly perform read and write operations in our hosting environment. It is also a crucial factor for us in achieving the best possible competitive performance. We use the Plesk environment on almost all of our servers. These are running on an enterprise-grade solution using Litespeed which also gives our clients additional processing efficiency in terms of DBMS CRUD and other web application operations. Meanwhile, Litespeed also helps us to manage services conveniently.
