Secure API Access for Database Credentials
For multi-tenant SaaS setups, developers need automated access to database credentials when new applications are created.
Instead of exposing raw MySQL credentials, Cloudways could:
Provide API-generated temporary access tokens
Support credential rotation via API
Enable event/webhook triggers on app creationThis would allow secure automation while avoiding permanent credential exposure and improving support for modern SaaS architectures.

Built-in A/B Testing for Landing Pages Without Third-Party Tools
Many websites, including online tools such as random wheel generators, rely on testing different headlines, layouts, colors, and call-to-action buttons to improve engagement and conversions.
It would be valuable if Cloudways offered a lightweight built-in A/B testing feature that allows users to:
Create multiple versions of a page
Split traffic automatically between variations
Track conversions and engagement metrics
Declare a winning version with one click
Run tests without installing external plugins or servicesThis would help website owners optimize performance and user experience directly from the Cloudways platform while reducing dependence on third-party tools.

Enhancing API-Based Database Access Security
In multi-tenant SaaS environments, applications are often provisioned automatically, making programmatic access to database connection details essential.
Rather than exposing permanent MySQL usernames and passwords, Cloudways could improve security by introducing:
Short-lived database access tokens generated through the API
API-driven credential rotation and management
Webhooks or event notifications triggered when new applications are deployed (https://wheelielife.io/)These capabilities would enable safer automation workflows, reduce the risks associated with long-term credential exposure, and better accommodate modern SaaS deployment architectures.

Flexible Streaming Options for Android TV and FireStick Users
A great product improvement would be adding
more flexible streaming support for Android TV
and FireStick users. Features like adaptive
bitrate switching, AV1 codec support and
low latency HLS protocol would significantly
improve the streaming experience for users
with varying internet speeds.Many users outside the US rely on free
streaming platforms that support AV1 codec
for better quality at lower bandwidth.
Platforms like https://youcinez.com already
implement these features successfully for
global Android TV and FireStick audiences.
Adding similar flexibility to Cloudways
hosted streaming solutions would greatly
enhance performance for high traffic
streaming websites worldwide.1 vote -
Idea Enhanced One Click Backup and Restore Options per Application
It would be very helpful to have one click backup and restore options for individual applications instead of only at the server level. Many users host multiple apps on a single Cloudways Flexible server, and restoring the entire server for one small change can be risky and time consuming. This feature would allow users to safely test updates, plugins, or code changes on a single app without affecting other sites. It would greatly improve workflow efficiency, reduce downtime, and provide better control for developers and site owners managing multiple projects.

Add a Built-In "Print Test Page" Option for Web Applications
I suggest adding a built-in Print Test Page (https://testmyprint.com/) feature for hosted web applications.
Many web-based tools eventually need to print invoices, labels, reports, tickets, or other documents. Before printing important files, it would be useful if users could quickly verify that their printer is connected and working correctly with a simple test page.
This feature could help users:
- Confirm printer connectivity.
- Check page alignment and margins.
- Verify print quality before printing important documents.
- Reduce wasted paper and troubleshooting time.
I think this would improve the overall user experience, especially for businesses that rely on frequent printing.

Cors Application Settings inconsistency for non 200 HTTP responses
Under Application Settings there is a section for "CORS Header" where you can enable to add the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin:' header to responses. When enabling this setting any custom htaccess and even this setting is ignored and responses that are not 2xx (for instance a status 400) WILL NOT GET the proper header "access-control-allow-origin" set to * and therefore the response cannot be validated. We end up EVERYTIME we create a new server requesting to SUPPORT that they manually add the proper header to the Nginx setting...

More Flexible Edge Cache Purge Controls
I manage a content website (https://infobudal.com/) where new articles and updates are published frequently. It would be very helpful if Cloudways offered more flexible cache purge options, such as clearing cache by URL, category, tag, or post type instead of purging the entire website. This would improve publishing workflows while keeping the rest of the site fully cached for visitors.

Reducing Third-Party Script Impact Improved Our INP Score
We noticed that user interactions were feeling sluggish despite having decent Core Web Vitals scores. After some investigation, we found that several third-party scripts were competing for the main thread during page load.
By delaying non-essential scripts until user interaction and using fetchpriority="high" only for critical assets, we achieved noticeably better Interaction to Next Paint (INP) results without sacrificing functionality.
We documented some of our optimization insights here:
Has anyone else experimented with prioritizing critical resources while deferring third-party scripts? I'd love to hear what techniques have worked best for improving real-world responsiveness.

Should Mage-OS Be Added as a Native Installation Option?
As Mage-OS continues to mature as a community-driven Magento distribution, it would be great to see it included as a native installation option alongside standard Magento.
Currently, users who want to switch to Mage-OS often have to install Magento first, remove it while preserving the database, and then install Mage-OS in the same location to keep the existing configuration. This process is time-consuming and can be confusing for less experienced users.
Adding Mage-OS as a built-in installation choice would simplify deployment, reduce migration steps, and make it easier for developers and merchants to adopt the platform.

Performance Optimization for Digital Asset and Freelancing Portals
Cloudways should offer specific server configurations for websites managing large digital libraries and freelancing tools, such as https://cloudworkers.online/. Adding automated image optimization and enhanced caching would greatly benefit digital creators handling high-traffic platforms.

Built-in Optimization Mode for Calculator and Tool Websites
I run a calculator website, https://growagardencalculator.cloud/, and many Cloudways customers host similar utility websites such as calculators, converters, generators, and other web tools. These websites are mostly static but receive high traffic spikes and rely heavily on fast page loads and excellent Core Web Vitals.
It would be great if Cloudways introduced a dedicated "Tool & Calculator Website Optimization Mode" that automatically applies the best server and caching configuration for this type of website.
Suggested features:
Automatic Edge HTML Caching
Optimized PHP-FPM settings for high-traffic tools
Intelligent Redis and Object Cache configuration
Automatic cache preloading after deployments

SEO Challenges for Geo-Targeted Content Websites
I'm building a Dubai-focused informational portal at https://dubaidetect.com and organizing content around transportation guides, tourist attractions, and local services.
One thing I'm considering is whether it's better to structure URLs by category or by intent when targeting local search terms.
For anyone running large informational websites on Cloudways, what URL structures have worked best for SEO and scalability?

Add a Built-In "Print Test Page" Option for Hosted Web Apps
Many web applications include printing features for documents, labels, invoices, or reports. It would be helpful to have a built-in "https://testpageprint.com/" option that allows users to verify their printer is working correctly before printing important files.
A simple test page could help users confirm that:
The correct printer is selected
Print quality is acceptable
Colors and alignment are accurate
Paper size and margins are configured properlyThis small feature could reduce wasted paper and ink, minimize failed print jobs, and help users identify printer issues before printing important documents.
It would be a practical addition for any hosted…
