Hi there,

We created Unubo to simplify cloud deployment. It provides the easiest way for you to deploy anything whether it's a Node.js app, a PHP based serverless function, a PostgresSQL database, or even a Ghost blog.

Any feedback is welcome!

The UI is gorgeous! Also looks pretty useful although I haven’t used it yet.

I’ll be sure to try it out in the near future.

This might be a dumb question, but does the service host your web app, or is it for helping you to deploy to other cloud providers?
Not dumb at all. It is actually hosted with us, on our infrastructure.
Cool. On the free tier, is the app put to sleep after a certain amount of time?
What if I just want to publish a set of static pages, how this would be compared with Netlify (not in terms of pricing of course).
Netlify started out by allowing you to host static sites, so this is easy to do. Anything additional that you might find useful requires extra steps, and is not as simple as it could be.

One example is selecting a particular region to deploy. With us it's as simple as selecting the region you want to deploy to from a drop down menu.

Other stuff like our detailed uptime/status monitor and the ability to roll back to a previously deployed state are also worth mentioning.

Unubo uses one flow for each deployment type, so in case you wanted to deploy something else in the future, you have the option to do so - and are already accustomed to do it.

How long will it remain free? Do you have to pay for it eventually? I don't understand the business model.
The free tier will always remain, to get people used to our platform.

We will soon be releasing paid plans that enable higher performance (memory, storage) and new features.
