servinga
Pros
- + Own hardware and network at 9 locations across 8 European countries plus Dallas, deployable at every tier
- + Transparent prepaid pricing with published per-unit upgrade costs and a throttle-not-suspend traffic policy
- + Backup slot with auto-backup, IPv4 + IPv6, KVM root access and 90-second provisioning included as standard
- + €3/month IPv6-only line with optional /64 subnet is strong value for network-centric workloads
Cons
- - Uplinks capped at 100-500 Mbit/s (gigabit is a paid upgrade); no CPU models published
- - Entry plan is thin (1 vCPU/1 GB, Linux only) and Windows effectively starts at €10/month
- - 48-hour money-back window is too short to load-test; support is ticket-based on a self-managed product
- - Less compute per euro than measured leaders like Hetzner Cloud at the 2-4 GB tier
Tencent Cloud
Pros
- + 22 regions and 64 AZs with mainland China coverage that Western clouds cannot offer
- + Published per-hour CVM price lists by region and per-second pay-as-you-go billing
- + Published 99.975% single-instance SLA with 10-400 Gbps baseline DDoS protection included
- + Trial-based Free Tier across 30+ products (CVM 2C4G free for 3 months) plus aggressive new-user pricing
- + Native WeChat, mini-program and gaming ecosystem integration
Cons
- - Mainland China compliance (ICP registration, data law) is heavy friction for Western buyers
- - Documentation and console experience are inconsistent, with machine-translated pages
- - Sales-and-ticket support model; community ecosystem is thin outside Asia
- - Promotional pricing is the headline — steady-state costs on modern instance families are closer to hyperscaler rates
- - Price list is reference-only; actual order pricing governs
