Why Lahyer
Where Lahyer
is different.
Johannesburg by default.
Every Lahyer app runs in Johannesburg and is delivered through a global edge, with no region setting to change. Vercel functions run in Washington, D.C. unless you choose another region.
One workspace price.
Pro covers up to 50 members instead of charging per developer seat, and Free already includes a Postgres database and Studio credits.
To be fair
When Vercel may suit you better.
- You need your app's compute in several regions at once. Lahyer runs apps in Johannesburg today.
- Your app relies on Vercel products such as Blob, Queues or Workflows.
- You need SAML single sign-on or a HIPAA BAA for your team.
Moving from Vercel
Three steps
to switch.
Connect the same repository.
Import it from GitHub or GitLab. Lahyer detects Next.js and other frameworks and fills in the build settings.
Copy your environment variables.
Add them for production and preview. They are encrypted and available during the build, so NEXT_PUBLIC_ values still reach the browser.
Point your domain.
Add the domain to your Lahyer project and update the DNS records it shows. HTTPS follows once the domain is verified.
A few useful answers
Before you begin.
Can I move a Next.js app from Vercel to Lahyer?
Yes. Lahyer runs Next.js on its own Node.js server, so server rendering, route handlers and API routes work. Vercel-only products, such as Blob or Queues, need a replacement.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Free includes 5 projects, 500 build minutes, 100 GB of data out and a 1 GB Postgres database. It needs no card and is not a time-limited trial.
Can I pay for Lahyer in naira?
Yes. Pro is ₦30,000 a month or ₦300,000 a year through Paystack or bank transfer. You can also pay $19 a month in US dollars by card, crypto or bank transfer.
