  1. Provide Birds Eye Resource Usage

    It's great to be able to see resource usage/monitoring by server now, but it'd be even more helpful if we could see a birds eye view of CPU usage on the servers list page to be able to more quickly identify recent spikes or surges without having to always click through into the server.

  2. Ability to view cron logs on demand via FTP or Cloudways Platform UI

    Saves time as admins do not need to request information to confirm whether cron ran.

  6. Root mysql user per server

    Add the ability to access mysql databases on server level next to application level. Sometimes it could be handy to access all databases on the server from one administration application, instead based on per application

  9. Display apps in two or three columns

    The apps lists currently shows all apps using a single column layout. That is all good when managing the account through a smartphone, but not so much when doing it via the desktop browser - even more so when there are tens of apps (my case; I run a small web hosting/web design service).

    I suggest that the apps list should display apps in two or three column layouts. I believe it would be much easier to find whatever app I'm looking for. Also, a text search would not be that bad.

    BTW this is how ManageWP shows its websites…

  10. The ability to set up client hosting accounts directly from within our own account.

    The ability to set up client hosting accounts directly from within our own account and have them linked to have direct access without having to log out, log into the other account, set up migrations, etc

    This would save the 2 week free trial that my clients don't need. They are only using you because I am suggesting/making them so they don't need anything free. You make more money and it makes our life easier and saves us time.

  11. Add feature to change default WP Admin email on master admin account

    Hi there,

    We are an agency with a large number of servers with Cloudways.

    A feature we would like to request is the ability to change the default WP Admin account username/email on app set-up, without the need to change the master account email on Cloudways.

    To put into context, our master account is set-up under the company director's email address (which is great for both notifications and security). However, this means his email is set-up as the default admin on new apps (and subsequently plugins that pull across the wp admin email, for example, Wordfence) - this then results…

  12. support an option to disable Staging/Live syncing options from the UI

    I would like to have a way to disable the PULL or PUSH process between staging and live.

    For example, when using Staging as a "test" environment, I do not want to let anyone to get the DB content from Staging and send it to Live.

    Vice-versa as well when, for example, I want to use Staging as a "pre-live" environment, where I want to enforce a single-way data flow.

    So, I would like options to enable/disable sync code + database from one to another, so only a single flow can be enforced.

    Thank you!

  14. A new option to download all backups at once

    In order to keep the backups in my machine, I need to browse all applications and dowload the backup.tgz from there, one by one. But, what if I have many applications at the same server? Also, the folders name don't identify each application easily, so, it is a pain to download and rename each one.

    It would be great a button like "Download all your local backups".

    Thank you.

  15. Prenotification of scheduled maintenance

    When the server provider has scheduled maintenance planned, Cloudways should notify server admin (via cloudways bot & email?) that scheduled maintenance is planned, including timescales and servers affected.

    it is much more professional for us to let our clients know that downtime is likely rather than our clients to contact us complaining of application downtime.

  16. New Staging - Selected Tables only, specific option for Woocommerce

    The new staging push/pull for selected tables is a great step forward, but with Woocommerce there are many entries into wpposts post meta etc which are all required, but if editing a store, we may not want to push all of wpposts and only woo orders or products. A custom query should fix this?

  20. Option to select data center

    It will be great if you can provide an option to select a data center. like, DO provides 3 data centers in NY. if the user wants to create a server if Digital Ocean ' NY-C1'. There is an option for the region only NY.
