Nocix
Pros
- + Outstanding hardware-per-dollar: 20-36 core dual Xeons with 128 GB RAM from tens of dollars per month
- + 1 Gbit unmetered transfer, 5 usable IPv4 addresses, and a /64 IPv6 block as standard
- + Network quality and transparency: direct Cogent/Telia/HE/China Telecom/China Unicom upstreams, 500+ peers, live utilization, iperf3 and test files published
- + Instant-activation preconfigs and 2-day custom builds with free setup
- + Own Kansas City facility with 24-hour on-site staff and a 10-minute hardware ticket response target
- + Dual-stacked network with open peering at KCIX and five other exchanges
Cons
- - Fully unmanaged: OS, security, and backups are your problem
- - No published uptime SLA or credit schedule
- - Much of the fleet is DDR3-era hardware; some custom plans out of stock
- - DDoS protection is 2 Gbit free-tier grade only
- - Single central-US location; thin documentation and ticket-only support
- - Plan prices are not cleanly published on static pages — pairing specs to prices requires the order UI
Database Mart
Pros
- + Genuinely low published prices: VPS from $2.99/mo, bare metal from $49/mo, GPU VPS from $85/mo
- + Windows Server licensing included in plan price instead of a $16-$52/mo add-on
- + Flat-rate GPU servers with unmetered bandwidth and zero egress fees suit always-on inference
- + 99.9% uptime SLA with 3x downtime service credits, plus automated backups
- + Two decades in business (since 2005) with its own US data centres and 24/7 human support
Cons
- - US-only footprint — Dallas and Kansas City, no European or Asia-Pacific locations
- - Entry plans (1 vCPU, 2 GB) are too thin for production workloads
- - Promotional pricing rotates constantly, so headline rates need checking against list prices
- - Heavy affiliate-marketing ecosystem makes independent reviews hard to find; company claims (customer counts) are unverified
- - Windows Desktop VPS runs evaluation Windows images, not licensed production Windows
