Media Temple IaaS Cloud vs. Vultr

I think Media Temple is well suited for a somewhat tech-savvy and sophisticated dev shop that wants something powerful to use but doesn't want the complexity of something like Rackspace or AWS. If you don't need an insane level of control and would have something more on a managed basis, Media Tempe IaaS is the way to go.

I've been with Vultr over 5 years hosting multiple businesses and email related services. I never experienced a significant outage or data loss. Migration has always been successful as well. Support is top tier and IP reputation is clean. I like the choices of OS, ease of platform use and multiple hosting/ region options.

• Good performance from servers close to me and my customers
• Ease of spinning up new servers
• Great service levels of servers I spin up
• Notifications of issues or downtime come through quickly, allowing me to handle client queries with knowledge in hand.

• There are often errors with automatic updates and management of 3rd party tools including software such as Plesk.
• I think the communication options could be improved. It isn't as easy to set up alerts as you would want.
• Your plans are grandfathered so you are somewhat stuck with an old plan.

• The response times for support tickets is too high and a quicker response time would be appreciated
• Availability of the VPS solution in Middle east and Africa would help
• Abilito to connect SIP trunks would make it more easy to run active communictaion platforms on Vultr

We’ve been extremely satisfied with the service for many years. After trying other providers, we’ve found nothing that matches the reliability and performance—so we’re not likely to switch anytime soon.

easy to use and configure. great bang for the buck. I need an affordable solution to host in the cloud data from systems installed at our client's site with the ability to drill down and change the configuration remotely. Vultr enabled us to do that in an efficient and affordable way.

We've been using both DreamHost and Media Temple for years and Media Temple has a better overall experience, offering a more robust solution in terms of scalability and customization. On the other hand, DreamHost has great support and a better pricing policy. So it depends on what are you looking for and your budget as well.

Linode is a more old-school offering. Linode pricing model and infrastructure rely on classic Virtual Machines. What we like about Vultr is that they offer the same at the front, but in the back, the machines are much more flexible and can be tailor-made to our needs, which of course also impacts the costs of running the infrastructure.
