Known limitations
Projects created through the Vercel Marketplace belong to their own separate Convex team (moderate)
Preview backends do not share data with development or production (minor)
Neon's own project transfer feature cannot be used with a Vercel-managed organisation; a linked Neon project moves automatically when its Vercel project changes teams (minor)
Plan, scaling and member changes must be made in the Vercel dashboard, not the Neon Console (minor)
Preview database branches are only deleted when their Vercel deployment is removed, which follows Vercel's retention policy (6 months by default) (minor)
The neon login CLI command does not work with Vercel-managed organisations, so CLI access needs an API key (minor)
Neon describes its MCP server as for development and testing only, not production environments (minor)
