“It is also cheaper than any other platform - Before knowing vultr, I would purchase a shared server and today I just create a server for my customers and the price and the performance are way better than a shared.“

### "Vultr review"

June 7, 2023

5.0

Vultr is a great option for hosting small apps and great websites. It's 99% uptime with great speed performance. It supports many of my favorite Cpanels.

Pros

Vultr provides one of the most affordable and top-notch website hosting services with high-performant infrastructures, ease of use, ease of setup, and customer support experience.It provides fantastic virtual private server instances at meager rates that support most of my favorite operating systems. Most often, we run Cyberpanel on Linux OS for the best convenience.With its high-frequency infrastructure, a 1core/1Gb server performs much better than other hosting providers with 2core/2Gb servers.Additionally, I like the fact that there are several server locations and many scripts to choose. Security is the grid is strong, backups can easily be managed and controlled, and resources are scalable.

Cons

The support services are good however, they delay in responding to open tickets.

### "Vultr Cloud Hosting"

January 6, 2025

5.0

Overall it has 100% met the needs for my client in a scenario where all they really need is a VM server in the cloud to connect to and run some applications. Support is good, price is good, so it's been a positive experience.

Pros

It's easy and quick to stand up infrastructure at a very reasonable cost. The interface for the admini portal is intuitive and support is very quick to respond to inquiries.

Cons

It is somewhat limited in services offered if you compare with the bigger cloud providers such as MS or AWS. It's more geared toward standing up VMs, cloud servers, vs. cloud elasticity and cloud application architecture.

Reason for choosing Vultr

### "Hardware failure and support"

October 24, 2024

3.0

Ok. Better support would make it good or excellent.

Pros

Very easy to create instances. Very good pricing.

Cons

Hardware issues seem to occur often. Twice within two months. One hardware issue caused block storage to corrupt and a site to go down. When asking help from support they said it was up to me to fix the problem. They pointed to resources which was helpful but only after I spent hours isolating the problem, trying to fix it unsuccessfully and reaching out to support again did they do something which fixed it within 5-10 minutes. When there are issues not caused by any fault on the customers end, Vultr needs to do more to help the customer. Support staff should take more initiative to help resolve the problem.

### "Satisfaction, but..."

November 3, 2024

4.0

Overall, a good experience. It would be nice to receive some credits from your side; after all, we've been using Vultr for several years but have never received any credits.

Pros

There are many server locations available, but I really miss having an option like Switzerland—it would be fantastic. For this reason, we're forced to use other service providers.

Cons

Maintenance on the servers causes issues for me because my services go down. I would consider dedicated servers, but the costs are too high.

Reason for choosing Vultr

Practical, fast, and easy to implement. Dedicated servers are too expensive, but they are reliable and of good quality.

### "Great experience these past two+ years"

October 25, 2024

5.0

I've been a Vultr customer for more than 2 years. They are more flexible than some other providers regarding custom ISOs, and our experience running services on Vultr instances has been top notch with no downtime and great support.

Pros

Responsive, professional service with top-notch uptime, great flexibility, and all of this at reasonable prices.

Cons

So far, after two years of service, nothing.

### "Good but not great "

November 3, 2024

4.0

Overall vultr have a great product range and the pricing is very good! The biggest issue is their support, it's pretty average. Ther was a pretty big outage with a product which led to me needing to move one of my resources to another provider but all vultr would do is offer a credit in my account. I really think a refund would have been the right thing to do here

Pros

The product range and price of the products is quite good.

Cons

The support is pretty poor, luckily the product is pretty solid

November 5, 2024

5.0

It's nice that they respond quickly when needed and have low latency for accessing the cloud.

Pros

good prices, easy to use, increasing level of services ans several zones to chose

Cons

There may be some serverless services missing and there could be an MSP console to manage different customers in the same tenant.

### "Vultr Service"

October 24, 2024

5.0

Its a good company and they have really good prices and i insist, i really like that they are really comprehensive with little business that need some more time to pay and i think that not a lot of companies have this facility

Pros

They are very understanding with little business and give them good additional time ranges to pay, also the infraestructure the 90% of times its pretty much reliable.

Cons

Their object storage its really bad in my opinion, one time i had a downtime of it for about a month and they even lost some data of their servers. Further than that, no other problem has arrived.

Mi experiencia con Vultr es buena. Cuando necesito un VPS confiable no dudo en contratar uno en Vultr

Pros

Lo que más me gusta de Vultr es que tiene ubicación de un centro de datos en Latinoamérica y las velocidades son increíbles.

Cons

La principal desventaja que le veo a Vultr son los precios en comparación con la competencia, aunque esto no es problema si quieres un servidor de calidad.

I have started my business using Vultr as amazon was too complicated to use with too many options that I didn’t need. I crossed Vultr platform and it was exactly what I needed.

October 24, 2024

5.0

Pros

Vultr is an extremely simple service to use. I have used it multiple times for both high-intensity and low-intensity applications, and it has always done the job well. The pricing plans and scalability of the platform are amazing, and the easy configuration of your server simplifies the entire process. I will continue to use Vultr whenever I have any hosting needs.

Cons

Honestly, I do not have any complaints about Vultr or its services. I have been using its services for years and have yet to encounter any issues that weren't user-error.

October 15, 2022

The experience with Vultr is amazing especially when it come to support, uptime and reliabilly. Funny that there uptime is rated at 99.99%, should be 100%.

Pros

The pricing is flexible enough and scalable to one's needs.

Cons

Lack of enough data centers across the globe is such a drawback. This issue brings high latency especially is you deploy to regions not close to you.

November 29, 2022

Vultr is super fast and provides one of the best and most affordable web hosting services today. It requires advanced skills to work with it properly, but, It's reliable for website optimization.

Pros

Similar to digital ocean, Vultr provides the best Pay-as-you-go and high-speed web hosting services.The server's data center is distributed in most parts of the developed countries which ensures a 24/7/365 website uptime performance. The Vultr pricing plans are quite affordable and cost-saving.I currently run more than 6 websites under one hosting plan (high frequency) and yet, I get the best performance speeds for each of these websites.With Vultr, Speed performance speed is settled.

Cons

The user backend is not as organized as many other competitors. For a brand-new user, It can be difficult to locate the server options.
