Overall Satisfaction with DigitalOcean Droplets

We were evaluating various cloud-based computation platforms for our internal POC. Digital Ocean droplets were one of the cloud-based solution providers we used. Our POC consisted of using lots of threads to perform computations in parallel. Digital Ocean Droplets were easy to set up and start using, decently priced, and easily scalable. They also provide useful information thus keeping our bills in check to some extent.
  • Scalable
  • Easy to use
  • Usage information should be more real time
  • GPU option should be introduced
  • Scalability
  • Ease of use
  • Not applicable as we were evaluating for an internal POC

Do you think DigitalOcean Droplets delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with DigitalOcean Droplets's feature set?

Yes

Did DigitalOcean Droplets live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of DigitalOcean Droplets go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DigitalOcean Droplets again?

Yes

If you want to set up your cloud infrastructure easily then Digital Ocean Droplets should suit you. They are scalable as well but they offer only CPU computation power. Hence, if your usage is only based on CPU computation then this can be a good option. They are decently priced as well. However, if you require graphics processing then this will not work.
