OneTechCloud
Pros
- + China-optimized premium routes (CN2 GIA, AS9929, CMIN2) with unmetered traffic at a low price point
- + Clean ISP-native IP products (US AS4837, London dual-ISP) that most Western hosts don't offer
- + Published per-plan specs and transparent promo pricing in the cart; 24-hour automatic provisioning
- + 72-hour refund guarantee and hourly-independent monthly/quarterly billing with Alipay support
Cons
- - Entirely Chinese-language operation — no English sales, support, or documentation track
- - 99% uptime guarantee with no status page, SLA credits, or verifiable history
- - Entry plans cap ports at 5–10 Mbps peak and showed zero stock at review time
- - No published backup, snapshot, IPv6 or DDoS-inclusion policy; strict acceptable-use rules (no proxies/VPN) and Chinese/HK content law applies
Hetzner ARM (Ampere)

- + Cheapest way to buy Hetzner compute per core
- + Real server silicon — Ampere Altra (Neoverse-N1), ECC RAM, NVMe
- + Hourly billing with monthly cap, 20TB included traffic, free IPv6
- + Free automated DDoS protection and the full Hetzner Cloud API/platform
- + Mature arm64 software ecosystem covers most open-source stacks
Cons
- - x86 and Arm are separate worlds — no rescale, backup or snapshot crossover
- - Cost-Optimized placement means limited stock and EU-only locations for CAX
- - Launch-era pricing is gone; entry cost has risen
- - Shared vCPUs and modest single-core speed
- - Backups and snapshots cost extra; unmanaged servers
