  • Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
Linode delivers higher performance cloud servers, within an easier web interface, simpler API, and better cost-benefit. Amazon has a complex interface that many times make the customers spend much more time in order to finish simple tasks and use "AWS-terms" so even if you need infrastructure, you need to know the "AWS-way" of doing the same thing.
Linode provides prompt support and the technicians are able to answer complex questions regarding Linux configurations, infrastructure details and give shell commands in order to help you out where the problem really is. In some cases, when the situation demands faster action from their side, they help and work as real partners.
Linode helps us to provide great infrastructure for an affordable price even though to countries such as Brazil, where this kind of service suffers from lots of regulations and taxes, and also with exchange rates that make the service more expensive to the ones who don't pay in dollar such as our customers.
We resell infrastructure to our customers and so uptime is also important for our company and for our customers. That said, Linode offers us a high competitive advantage we can sum up on our products and services that are above the standards of our competitors and also with much more reliability and performance.
