  • Will people on UNA Cloud be able to get work done on their sites using Quote work instead of having to upgrade their plans? I needed work done and instead of getting a quote I was told I had to upgrade my plan. This new business model will hurt UNA Cloud members who are used to getting quote work done directly through UNA Devs who have access to the servers

    • Custom changes on UNA cloud will need access to files/cpanel/ssh. We've been careful with this because once you provide that level of access people tend to install all sorts of things to their servers and we would effectively become a hosting company. In our previous experience we end up with sites running monster-hybrids of Wordpress plus Drupal plus god knows what. Adds to overhead and makes it hard to make the service viable. Next year, however, we plan to launch a new, simpler tier for those only needing to start a basic community, and the UNA Cloud servers with current Pro plans will get more flexibility and freedom. We hear you!

      • I have no problem with UNA Devs doing the work. I don't use WordPress or extra stuff. Usually when I ask UNA Devs to help they give me a quote. I wanted to get rid of Jitsi Watermark and modify some of the stuff but when I asked UNA Devs they said I would have to upgrade to the next tier ($500) just to get work done from now on.
