VERDICT

Should I use DeployHQ?

DeployBot has joined DeployHQ. Get everything DeployBot offered plus deployment zones, firewall support, one-click rollback, and more. - deploybot.com

Worth it. Buy if you push Git code to your own servers — especially PHP, Laravel, WordPress, or .NET — and want cheap automated deploys with one-click rollback. Skip it if you deploy to Vercel/Netlify or already run GitHub Actions; it would duplicate what you have.
