Overall Satisfaction with Vultr

We are considering using Vultr to support our search engine that rely on bare-metal infrastructure. Their global presence is an important advantage to support our global distributed business.
We appreciated our experience using Vultr bare-metal, from server creation using Web Console or API that is really straightforward (relying on iPXE) to usage in production that behave smoothly. We also appreciate technical support reactiveness even we did not have so much issues to face until now.
  • Customer Portal Interface
  • API
  • Global Presence
  • Hardware Specification
  • Support Reactiveness
  • Better support integration using mailing
  • Simplified global infrastructure management
  • Improvement of reliability in "exotic" regions
Vultr perfectly match our expectation in terms of global presence. That is an big point because it helps us having a single interlocutor in many different region, reducing management burden.
From now we didn't introduced a new region, but we are confident that Vultr could be of a good help to achieve this goal in the future
We are already using those other providers. Vultr is pretty comparable with those but offer a still better global presence and a better API interface that allow us easily managed our fleet without needing manual action in the customer portal.
Also, Vultr customer portal is really ease of use and smooth that is pretty confortable in the day to day running

Yes

Would you buy Vultr again?

Yes

I think it is well suited from global distributed business that are ready to rely on bare-metal hardware to achieve better cost efficiency. Good challenger of major cloud providers but still lack the availability zone model that can reduce their reliability if you need to expose a service achieving an important SLA
