Cherry Servers
Pros
- + Low entry pricing: Cloud VPS from $3.24-3.51/mo, custom dedicated from $0.098/hr, with hourly billing
- + Up to 100 TB free egress per dedicated server; extra traffic from €0.50/TB — friendly to bandwidth-heavy workloads
- + 99.97% financially backed uptime SLA and default DDoS protection at no extra cost
- + Bare metal breadth: instant and fully custom builds up to 128 cores / 1152 GB RAM with optional GPUs
- + Seven locations across EU, US, and Asia; personal account manager and 24/7 chat for every customer
Cons
- - No managed Kubernetes, no S3-compatible object storage, no hyperscaler service ecosystem
- - Mid-sized provider (~60 staff); support depth beyond chat and account management is limited
- - Product pages are inconsistent (region counts, $3.24 vs $3.51 entry price) — the configurator is ground truth
- - Wide plan menu (spot, outlet, instant, custom, fixed-term vs on-demand) makes comparison effortful
Vultr
Pros
- + Truly global: 34 regions on six continents from one console, one API, one price list - with per-region test IPs published
- + Fully published hourly and monthly pricing from $2.50/mo, mature REST API and Terraform provider
- + 100% network and host-node uptime SLA with credits; standardized platform behavior across every region
- + Broad self-serve catalog: NVMe optimized VMs, NVIDIA/AMD GPUs, bare metal, managed databases/Kafka, S3-compatible object storage, VKE
Cons
- - Price-performance trails European leaders: our measured HF 2GB (Amsterdam) had the slowest NVMe storage of six tested providers at a mid-range price
- - Backups cost 20% of instance price, snapshots bill per GB, Windows and extra egress are add-ons
- - No refunds in the terms of service; support is ticket-only for self-serve customers
- - Overlapping instance families (Cloud Compute, VX1, Optimized) make it easy to pick a stale SKU; region count differs across Vultr's own pages (32/33/34)
