ReliableSite

- + Free DDoS protection on all IPs, free KVM/IPMI, free IP/ASN announcement — no feature paywalling
- + Published configurator pricing including unmetered upgrades (2 Gbps +$99/mo up to 10 Gbps +$599/mo)

Cons
- - Strict no-refund policy — third-party reports describe hard-fisted dispute handling
- - Unmanaged by default; management costs +$99/mo and there is no cloud-style elasticity
- - No Phoenix location and thin APAC/EU coverage (Amsterdam is newly launched, Querétaro is pre-order)
- - Backup space is an opt-in add-on; some specials are older DDR3 hardware
- - Stock is limited per location and 'value' badges on specials are marketing math

Cons
