In reply to Christee.

WP Stagecoach seems like a good alternative for those of use who have a number of active projects for clients. Christee makes a good point however I only have a small number of clients who would never think of paying Flywheel prices for a host. If I had my way (and the budget) sure I'd prefer to have a host like flywheel host all of my projects but that's just not financially possible for many. I use SiteGround when I can and use their staging service but they have limitations on what sites you can host so I current use a digital ocean VPS for all of mine. It's not ideal but it gets the job done. If WP Stagecoach doesn't have any restrictions on what kind of sites I can stage I'll most likely pay for a year and remove a headache.
