Solved Wordpress website for non-technical user/manager

CloudWays supports your whole stack. Vultr does not. Vultr just gets you up and running quickly, and rarely on an OS I'd approve for production if we were building ourselves. I don't want to run old components just to run old components.
Paying the CloudWays premium to me makes sense if you want support. If going with your own support, setting up the instance takes no effort (if you can support it) so what's the benefit of the one click installer?

I prefer doing it yourself because you have to support it after the fact.
This is exactly the road I was leaning towards, since you don't really know 100% what is taking place with the 1 click apps.

Or worse, you do know and don't like it

I'm working on making this as easy and automatic as possible with Salt:

I need to get my hands on Salt in my lab and test it out.

You can do it all on one machine, although there is a certain silliness to that. It is SUPER easy to set up, though.

Yeah, I've been reading the Salt posts you've been making. I just need to find the time to do it.

Mail: Office 365 / GSuite / Self Hosted / ZoHo
Web hosting: Vultr / Cloudways / Azure / VPS /Random cheap Shared host for basic web hostingSome of this ground has been covered in previous threads...but I need to ask again:
Mail: I have O365 but I want to add a bunch of generic email addresses and avoid paying the $2 -5/mo. What was the solution?
Web hosting: WordPress for blogs etc..Cloudways or Vultr?

Distribution groups. Someone with a real email has to be a member to get the messages, but that is how you make a bunch of various addresses.

Anyone with a one click install that updates for you is the better choice.

These are totally different products. One is IaaS. One is PaaS. It depends what you are looking for. They are not opposing things, you can get Cloudways on Vultr. If you define what you are looking for what will tell you which is the one that you want, if either.

Do the domain's have to be setup at O365?
