A support experience above the rest
Support Experience
People choose Linode because they demand a better customer support experience. Other cloud providers deprioritize support in pursuit of lowering costs and maximizing revenues. Linode's independence and mission drive us to a different standard, where the customer is the driving force behind everything we do.
“Nothing beats first-response resolution, nothing beats a no-tiered customer support department.”
Chris Aker - CEO, Founder, Linode
