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
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)
