A large provider billing by the hour, with wide location coverage and a mature console.
Price
We have not verified this vendor’s prices.
The official pricing page returned a bot check when we looked, so no numbers here.
Who it suits
Development environments, CI, throwaway services, and infrastructure you may want to rebuild at will. People who care about SLA and platform maturity.
Who it does not suit: Anyone optimising for a low long-term cost. Hourly billing is convenient but usually costs more over years than a promotional annual plan.
Routes we list it under
Check these before you pay
- Its core strength is not the route
Snapshots, tags, firewall groups, an API, automatic reinstalls — those are the actual product. Use it as lego-brick infrastructure, and do not expect it to optimise a return path for you.
- IPv6-only plans are cheaper
Its IPv6-only machines cost noticeably less than the ones with IPv4. Beginners often trip here: it pings, but the service does not work. Read our “checking a blocked IP” guide before deciding whether you need IPv4.
Questions
What does it cost?
vultr.com/pricing returned a bot check when we checked, and we do not work around those. Price varies by region, datacenter and IP count — check the console.
Is it good for hosting a site?
Yes for sites with overseas visitors. For mainland-facing traffic it runs ordinary international egress — do not expect much at peak.
