Where it helps and where it hurts

StrengthsWeaknesses
  • The lowest price per gigabyte of memory among the providers we have priced, at every size from 2 GB up
  • Memory, processors and disk are chosen separately, so a disk-hungry tool does not force a bigger plan
  • Billed by the minute on hourly plans, which suits short trials
  • The Starter (Type A) servers priced here are described by VPSServer as meant for always-on tasks rather than high-speed performance; its Standard and Enterprise types cost more
  • Its own terms place it in the same corporate group as Kamatera, so the two are not independent suppliers

Configurable servers billed monthly, or by the minute on hourly plans. 1 to 5 TB of traffic a month is included depending on location, and extra traffic is $0.01 per GB. Prices exclude VAT.

The VPSServer link above is an affiliate link, run through the same programme as our Kamatera link; VPSServer and Kamatera belong to the same group. If you sign up through it we may earn a commission, but the programme does not state an amount for VPSServer. That never changes the computed costs, which server is chosen, or the conclusion of this page. The sizing model and every price source are published in full.
