DMIT
Pros
- + Premium China Mainland routing: CN2 GIA on Pro plans plus direct peering with all three Chinese carriers
- + Operates its own backbone (up to 7.6 Tbps Tier 1) across three Pacific Rim locations
- + Exceptional routing transparency — public per-carrier, per-direction route status per location and series
- + Three network series (Premium/Eyeball/Tier 1) let you pay for exactly the routing you need
- + Premium hardware (AMD EPYC generations) with ports up to 10 Gbit/s and large traffic allowances
- + Colocation available for teams that want their own hardware in the same facilities
Cons
- - Premium pricing: $39.90/month buys 1 vCPU/1 GB in Hong Kong; $72.90/month for 4 vCPU/4 GB in Los Angeles
- - Chronic stock scarcity — flagship Pro plans often out of stock; all sales paused for months in mid-2026
- - No published uptime SLA with credits; ticket-based support from a small team
- - Transfer counted bidirectionally; HKG/TYO plans pause when allowance is exhausted
- - IPv6 traffic does not ride the premium route back to China; AUP bans VPN tunnels to China
- - Pricing page and store can contradict each other on stock and prices
