WordPress Stability
I rate WordPress' stability a nine out of ten since the free version is not so stable. But if the commercial version is stable, I rate it a ten out of ten.
View full review »The stability of WordPress can vary depending on the hosting provider used. For instance, with Bluehost, it often experiences frequent breakdowns and scheduled maintenance, leading to interruptions. On the other hand, hosting services like Cloudways and Namecheap offer better stability and are preferred options. GoDaddy is good as well but not my first choice.
The stability of WordPress can be described as an ideal one. The stability depends a lot on your server infrastructure and where you will be putting the server.

Workforce performance relies on the server's capabilities, particularly its strength. If your server lacks sufficient workspace or experiences certain limitations, it can significantly impact performance. So, whether a website faces issues or remains stable hinges entirely on the quality and strength of its server.

WordPress is stable. The most important thing to do is to just keep updating the plugins. Most of my clients, for whom I also do maintenance, have faced no problems with their websites. However, I sometimes have clients who face problems and come to me because they are too late to update the plugins.
View full review »When a company installs WordPress, they'll notice an extensive range of features. WordPress is known for its stability and versatility. It's a reliable software platform that offers security features as well.
Some hosting options for WordPress may require payment, but self-financed hosting can also be a viable choice to maintain stability.
Based on my experience, one critical factor is hosting. If your hosting server cannot handle a sudden surge of users, it can lead to downtime for your website. I've encountered a situation where our WordPress website was hosted on AWS and experienced downtime due to a sudden increase in users.
Additionally, the UI of a website is vital. If it's not responsive or well-designed, it can negatively impact user experience, regardless of the hosting server's capabilities. So, while hosting is crucial, it's just one aspect, and other factors like UI and functionality also matter for a successful WordPress site.
I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

WordPress is stable. The only issue with it is security. That's the one thing that people always worry about because WordPress is a real target.

Stability is always a concern. Take your time performing updates when new x.00 releases come out.

It is very stable. Most hostings are optimized to work with WordPress, so there should be no problem with its use.

Yes. Usually it happens when you have a lot of outdated plugins. All you need to do is to keep them up-to-date.
