Update Apache 2.4.28 or later after website failed penetration test
One of our clients recently undertook a penetration test on their site in accordance with their ISO application. It was highly recommended that Apache was upgraded to version 2.4.28 or later as Apache 2.4.10 was reported to have multiple vulnerabilities.
Most large UK based companies will undergo a similar ISO application so this should really be completed.
Thanks!

Add a button to apply MYSQL user ownership to the public_html directory
Adding a button to apply MYSQL user ownership to the files public_html directory for Moodle will save CSR time and allow them to work on more pressing issues. At the moment you have to contact Cloudways to fix the permissions on that folder after you upgrade your Moodle installation.

LEMP Stack with Apache removed
The current setup seems to be only using nginx as reverse proxy in front of apache/php-fpm.
Right now requests seem to go this way nginx->apache->php-fpm.
We'd like to test with apache completely removed and nginx->php-fpm direct.
We'd like to have a nginx -> php-fpm setup for generating dynamic content on uncached pages for faster performance.
We are able to get twice the page loading speed from a direct setup on Linode with identical specs with Nginx used for php-fpm than the Thunderstack use of Nginx only as a reverse proxy and Apache for php-fpm dynamic content.

Server speed
tools.pingdom.com lets me see the pageload speed of my site from various countries. I'd like to be able to compare servers before buying.
e.g. I tried Vultr in Singapore - very slow loading into Australia. Moved to Linode in Freemont - 2x the speed for the same site.
Took 2 days of setup and testing and trial accounts to work that out - perhaps there is an even faster server? I can't try them all.
Just put a 1mb web page on each server. Publish the url. Now I can compare at GTMetrix or Pingdom to choose the best server…

Install X-sendfile on Server
According to this article below, you mention using X-Sendfile to serve digital downloads for woocommerce. It is not currently installed on servers by default, and would be great if it was. Also to provide instructions on best way to setup for secure downloads for woocommerce.

Officially support running nodejs as an app user.
I've chatted with support and they told me you must run NPM and nodejs as a master user. This requirement makes per-app security impossible.

Support multiple nodejs versions like v6, v7 and v8
I recommend you use NVM, so that we can install and select whichever version of Node we want. This would also help with permission issues.

Support npm install --global
Right now, it throws a permission error. This is helpful for tools like gulp.

Improve cloning process
On cloning an application, optionally allow me to specify the target url and a checkbox to specify that I want an SSL certificate installed.
This would greatly help improve the process to get that cloned server up and running much quicker.
Thanks!

support naming application folders and databases arbitrarily
The current scheme is absolutely impossible to remember. Even when renaming folders, the randomly selected name remains as the new name is a link.
That means this would have to be asked for before anything has been set up.
Usually I want to name the folder and database to the (sub)domain or the actual application name. What's easier to remember than that?
Support at least letters, digits, "-", "_", ".", unless restricted by the database engine in question.

More servers located in Brazil!
The only server located in Brazil is from Amazon. The value is too high for more common applications. Please, we urgently need more servers in Brazil regardless of the provider.

automatic restart when server goes down
I think it's essential that the servers are fixed so that if they go down they automatically restart the server especially on digital ocean + vultr
A few times I've had the site receive a traffic spike out of the ordinary and it pulled my sites down until I manually rebooted it. It should be automatic.

Allow SSH2 on your servers
I want to use a simple application that requires SSH2, and this is not compatible with your server configuration for some reason.
