If you're looking for a cost-effective solution then this is a good choice, be sure to keep on top of your balance! The 100% uptime is also a nice addition, although not unique in a cloud hosting service.

UpCloud
  • The billing reports are quite hard to read, could be simplified
  • A control panel function would be useful
  • The re-billing process could be better, not so cut throat if you miss a payment!

We trialed UpCloud to see if it would be better than DigitalOcean but for our needs, it was not. On DigitalOcean once a droplet is created, almost no thought needs to go into maintenance, outages, or other reliability-based issues.

  • The low cost means you don't really need to worry about pricing
  • To us as a business it was not as useful as DigitalOcean
