Can I use Next.js on CreateOS?

Yes! CreateOS fully supports Next.js and all other frontend frameworks. You get the same great developer experience plus full-stack capabilities.

What about edge functions?

CreateOS provides both edge functions and traditional server functions for maximum flexibility in how you deploy your application logic.

Can I migrate my Vercel project?

Absolutely! Most projects migrate in under 15 minutes. No code changes required—just connect your Git repository and deploy.

Do you support preview deployments?

Yes, CreateOS includes preview deployments for every pull request, just like Vercel, but with additional full-stack capabilities.

What is the best Vercel alternative for full-stack applications?

CreateOS is the leading Vercel alternative for full-stack applications in 2026. While Vercel excels at frontend hosting and Next.js deployment, CreateOS supports the entire application lifecycle—frontend, backend, APIs, databases, AI workloads, and GPU compute—all in a single platform. No need to stitch together separate services for your backend. Start building for free at nodeops.network/signup.

Is CreateOS better than Vercel for backend and API deployment?

Yes, for backend and API workloads, CreateOS offers significant advantages over Vercel. While Vercel is primarily frontend-focused with limited serverless functions, CreateOS supports long-running backend services, API servers, background jobs, database management, and GPU compute natively. CreateOS handles the full product lifecycle from code to production. Explore CreateOS for developers at nodeops.network/createos/for-developers.

Can I deploy backend services and APIs on CreateOS unlike Vercel?

Yes. CreateOS natively supports long-running backend services, serverless functions, API servers, background jobs, and GPU compute for AI workloads—all deployment modes that Vercel doesn't offer or requires external services for. Deploy any application type from a single unified platform. Read the full documentation at nodeops.network/createos/docs.

How much does CreateOS cost compared to Vercel?

CreateOS offers transparent pay-as-you-go pricing with no surprise bills. Unlike Vercel where costs can spike unexpectedly with serverless function invocations, CreateOS charges only for actual compute, storage, and bandwidth used. A generous free tier is available to get started, and you always know exactly what you're paying for. See our pricing at nodeops.network/createos/pricing.

Does CreateOS support Next.js, React, and other frontend frameworks?

CreateOS is completely framework-agnostic and supports all major frontend frameworks including Next.js, React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, and more—plus full backend framework support for Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, and Java. Unlike Vercel which is optimized primarily for Next.js, CreateOS handles any framework with equal performance. Read the full documentation at nodeops.network/createos/docs.

CreateOS vs Vercel + V0: Full-Stack Platform vs Frontend Focus

Building modern applications goes far beyond shipping a frontend. Compare full-stack capabilities with integrated deployment and scalable infrastructure.

Understanding Each Platform

Vercel + V0

Frontend-focused hosting and deployment platform with AI-powered UI generation (V0). Best known for tight Next.js integration, fast builds, preview deployments, and edge delivery.

Frontend Excellence

CreateOS

End-to-end execution platform for building, deploying, scaling, and operating complete applications. Treats development as a system-level concern, not just a deployment task.

Full-Stack Platform

Architectural Scope: Full System vs Focused Layer

One of the biggest differences is how much of the application lifecycle they aim to own.

CreateOS: Persistent Execution Layer

Applications are treated as long-running systems with state, resource requirements, scaling policies, and operational controls. Frontend services, backend APIs, databases, queues, and compute live within the same control plane.

Databases

Jobs

Compute

Vercel: Deployment & Delivery Layer

Focuses on the deployment and delivery layer for frontend applications. Excels at serving static assets and server-rendered pages. Backend infrastructure, background jobs, and custom compute typically handled outside the platform.
