Customer Stories

Why teams choose Capawesome over Capgo

See why teams are switching from Capgo to Capawesome

We mainly use over-the-air (OTA) updates to deliver critical bug fixes and updates when waiting on the App Store review process is not an option. After dealing with too much down-time and latency from Capgo, we made the decision to switch to Capawesome Cloud and we couldn't be happier. Capawesome is more stable and the package delivery speeds are significantly faster, which makes a big difference at scale. Capawesome's team is extremely responsive and professional - thanks for supplying such a great product guys.

We switched from Capgo to Capawesome Cloud a few months ago and so far we haven't looked back. With Capawesome Cloud, we have significantly less downtime, updates are delivered faster, and support is literally the best we have ever experienced. The integration was straightforward, and the documentation is clear and concise. Big thanks to the Capawesome team for creating such an awesome platform!

Capawesome Cloud is a complete mobile CI/CD platform. Native Builds for iOS and Android, automated App Store Publishing to TestFlight and Google Play, and Live Updates — all in one product, driven from a single dashboard or CLI.

Capawesome supports Capacitor, Ionic, and Cordova for every cloud feature, including Live Updates. Native Builds and App Store Publishing also work for pure native iOS and Android projects.

Most teams migrate in under a day. Swap the SDK, point it at your Capawesome Cloud app, and ship — our team helps with the migration at no cost on every paid plan.

Plans start at $9/month with fixed, transparent pricing — no platform multipliers, no per-build surcharges. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.

Yes. Capawesome connects to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps — both cloud-hosted and self-hosted — so every commit can automatically trigger a build, a release, or a Live Update. No pipeline files to author or maintain.

Paid plans are backed by an uptime SLA. Capawesome ships versioned SDK releases on npm so you can pin to a stable version and upgrade on your schedule, and supports per-device automatic rollback that protects users if a Live Update misbehaves on their device.

Every paying customer gets direct access to our engineering team — no first-tier help desk, no canned answers. Enterprise plans add priority response times and a dedicated channel.

Capawesome is built by official Ionic Developer Experts and active Capacitor Community Members — the same team behind one of the largest open-source Capacitor plugin portfolios in the ecosystem. The platform is under active daily development and used in production by teams ranging from indie developers to enterprise customers.
