Cherry Servers
Pros
- + Two decades of operating history, own data center in Lithuania, ISO 27001 / SOC-attested colo sites
- + Clear published price lists: VPS from $3.51/mo, bare metal from $57.33/mo, hourly rates everywhere
- + Operator-grade networking: 10 Gbps uplinks, 100 TB+ free egress on dedicated, BGP, BYOIP, floating IPs
- + Seven locations across EU, US, and APAC, with EU jurisdiction for GDPR-sensitive work
- + Free IPv6 /64 (expandable to /56) on bare metal, standard DDoS protection included
Cons
- - Own pages publish conflicting entry prices ($3.51 vs $3.24 vs $5.83 on the same page)
- - Hourly billing on entry VPS plans costs roughly 4x the monthly rate over a full month
- - Entry Gen 2 VPS plans bundle only 1 TB transfer and have no annual discount
- - No real managed hosting tier — support is 24/7 but servers are self-managed
- - IPv6 is bare metal only; VPS/VDS get none, and regional stock is uneven
OVHcloud

- + Entry VPS pricing undercuts nearly every comparable provider for the specs
- + Anti-DDoS and daily automatic backup included on all VPS tiers
- + EU data residency with GDPR, HDS and SecNumCloud options

- + Own hardware, network and data centers — few middlemen in the chain
Cons

- - Snapshots and premium backups are paid add-ons
- - Control panel is dense and dated next to newer hosts
- - Web hosting renewals jump to several times the introductory price
