Cloudways has worked closely with Cloudflare, OceanWP, Divi, and OCP among others to offer a seamless, no-code digital experience for agencies and developers to build and secure WordPress websites.

“Cloudways is both growing as a company and building significant momentum in the cloud hosting industry,” said Aaqib Gadit, Co-Founder and CEO of Cloudways. “The recent addition of Suhaib, Tom, and Paul to our leadership team shows the growth plans and ambition we have for Cloudways.
