Q + A
What buyers ask us about Kinsta.
These are the questions buyers send us while they are deciding between Kinsta and us, answered the way one of our own engineers would answer them on the phone.
Why is Kinsta so much more expensive?
They pay for premium routing between regions and they have spent longer on their panel and their support. The two entry prices sit side by side above, each in its own currency, so you can weigh that against what you actually need.
How does the network compare?
Kapsule CDN serves your site from the location closest to your visitors, and for the great majority of sites the two feel the same. Kinsta buy premium routing between regions, so if your traffic is unusually sensitive to that, test both before you decide.
Does my site stay online during the move?
Yes. We build a copy of your site here, you check it, and we switch your DNS outside business hours. It is the same sequence we use for every move.
