Running backend services and databases alongside your app, not just a frontend and its functions — Netlify's free plan is scoped to 125,000 function invocations and 1 million edge function invocations a month, while Coolify and Dokploy run arbitrary backend services and provision databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, Redis via Dokploy) on hardware you control, with no invocation ceiling
Avoiding a monthly allowance that suspends your site — Netlify's own announcement of its free plan says a site suspends for the rest of the calendar month once its usage allowance (100 GB bandwidth, 300 build minutes) is exceeded, while a self-hosted Coolify or Dokploy instance keeps running on whatever capacity its own server has
Building without a per-minute build-time budget — Netlify's free plan includes 300 build minutes a month, while Coolify and Dokploy build on your own server with no per-minute metering
