WP Engine is the best-known name in managed WordPress. But it charges $2 for every 1,000 visits over your limit, and automatic plugin updates cost extra. WP Pro Host has no visit limits and includes plugin updates, from £25/mo.
WP Engine charges $2 for every 1,000 extra visits
Every WP Engine plan has a monthly visit limit. A sale or campaign that beats it adds to your bill. WP Pro Host has no visit limits on any plan, and WooCommerce runs on every plan from £25/mo.
For store owners, WP Engine sells WooCommerce as separate ecommerce plans, which cost more than its standard WordPress plans. On WP Pro Host, WooCommerce runs on every plan, from Launch at £25/mo.
Traffic overages are the second major cost driver. WP Engine charges per 1,000 visits above your monthly allowance — for a WooCommerce store that runs a successful promotion, the month's most commercially important traffic is also the most expensive. WP Pro Host has no visit metering at any plan level. A successful Black Friday campaign costs the same as a quiet month.
On WP Engine, automatic plugin and theme updates are a paid add-on. On WP Pro Host, plugin and theme updates are part of the managed service on every plan.
