    Unlike other providers, Springs doesn’t use a pre-built container solution, instead opting for their own software built from the ground up.

    In case you want a cheaper PaaS that may be available in your country (Brazil, in my case), you may give Jelastic a try. There are some other strong competitors for the PaaS scenario with free versions, but the paid versions are far more expensive.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • Provide more options at lower costs
    • It would be nice to see that expanded out to more distributions. What would be potentially even better though is templates. Some hosts can deploy ready-to-run WordPress/Drupal sites, LAMP instances, ownCloud instances, etc. at the drop of a hat. If Springs could replicate this with their container hosting they’d immediately appeal to a much, much wider audience;

    • SSH is still tricky to use. You have to log in to a gateway and go to an option menu to get logged in. Sometimes it was not available or too slow.
    • Some errors are not clear enough. It took some time to understand which files I had to upload to get my custom SSL certificates working.

    Springs is drastically cheaper than running 4 OVH servers, and a little cheaper than running nano instances on AWS.

    The price of Jelastic for the paid version (considering SSL) is better.

    • In the beginning I wasn’t sure what I should set it to for my web server, so I left it. After a while the Average usage area begins showing how much resource the container is demanding and from that more adequate limits can be set.
