I am impressed by the reliability of LeaseWeb Cloud's services, which ensure stable and consistent operation for my SaaS hosting. The price-to-performance ratio is outstanding, offering excellent value without compromising service quality. I particularly value the data sovereignty they provide, which ensures compliance with data storage regulations and adds an extra layer of confidence in handling sensitive information. Additionally, I find the security groups feature extremely beneficial as it allows me to effortlessly manage security across multiple instances, enhancing overall data protection and operational efficiency.

**What do you dislike about LeaseWeb Cloud?**

I find the UI of LeaseWeb Cloud to be outdated and clunky, which can make navigation and operation less efficient. Additionally, the signup process involves a rigorous KYC (Know Your Customer) procedure that takes a significant amount of time to complete, slowing down the onboarding experience.

**What problems is LeaseWeb Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I host my SaaS on LeaseWeb Cloud because it provides reliable services with great price-to-performance and data sovereignty. The security groups feature lets me easily manage security across instances.

  ### 2. Huge bills are issued for excess traffic, even if it is illegitimate.

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark G. | PR-manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**What do you like best about LeaseWeb Cloud?**

The large and famous international company with full hosting services.

**What do you dislike about LeaseWeb Cloud?**

If you ordered a server with a limit of, say, 10 TB, but there was an attack on your server, then you will have to pay for traffic from the rates of 5 cents per gigabyte.

**What problems is LeaseWeb Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem is not only that illegal traffic is not cut off, but that ordinary traffic packages are calculated at much lower tariffs. For example, in one of the months we were billed for 4429 euros for overspending traffic of 98 TB, although the same traffic costs a very reasonable 60 euros from the provider. The difference is more than 70 times. Moreover, the official offer agreement does not contain these frenzied prices of 5 cents per gigabyte, they are indicated on the website in the FAQ section, which is only a reference information. In other words, traps are set.

  ### 3. Premium cloud service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ivan I. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2016

**What do you like best about LeaseWeb Cloud?**

First I must say the billing/contract cycle is impressive, while paying monthly is really a hassle for companies, leaseweb provides multiple cycle starting from 1 month, to annaul payment, even that, you can choose 36 months payment either! That way you can save alot of effor to take care of the finance issue, also they are willingly to offer a gentle discount for loyalty. Needless to say this is a gimmick to me that works most efficiently to keep their customer base.

Apart from the most itchy "Financial" stuff, networking is also a big issue to most of us. As you may know, if the latency is too high, mission-critical tasks or applications sensitive to latency will drastically decrease their performance within such situation. Fortunately leaseweb provides a great choice between "Volume" and "Premium", that way you can balance between two, and choose which suits the best need. For myself I am using the "Premium" network, and from Singapore to Hong Kong it only takes 35ms per request latency, giving me a much advantage on controlling nearline, realtime tasks on administrating infrastructure tasks. Moreover, the "Premium" route is giving the best effort on peering. How so? The "Volume" and "Premium" doesn't gives the same performance, that's because the peering pricing is cost higher if you need "Premium" routes, which gives you a better route for data transferral. While the "Volume" is your budget-friendly choice, to have high capacity flavour on transferings.

In addition to money and service, their support and self-service panel is quite out of the box -- good! Unlike most of the cloud provider, leaseweb provides an "easy-to-use" experience to users, despite the learning curve still exists for people who not knowing IT management throughly, every aspect of the control panel are minimal and simplest, giving people an understandable page to work out their duty efforts, without knowing much management knowledges.

**What do you dislike about LeaseWeb Cloud?**

With the best being said, there are a few place I still think leaseweb can make rooms for improvements.

Starting off is password policy. I have raised a ticket about, my password is not allowed with "dots" in it, such as "my.53cur3!p455w0rd", the following dot after "my" is not allowed. It is quite annoying if your company has password policy, which didn't comply with this one, an extra set of password would be created specially for leaseweb. That might increase the risk on managing password and sensitive information.

Second to say is the login name issue. Lots of provider including Google, Microsoft, Adobe, etc, are allowing you to set customized username, or login using your email. While leaseweb disagrees, they gives you a customer number, where you will enter that into the login form as "username". Honestly I need to find my customer number in my email --literally-- every single time I login, I mean... Why all the hassle?

Third one is, lack of payment gateways. I know Paypal is quite a top-representative in the payment gateway listing, however customers always have different kinds of accounts, I think it would be great for leaseweb to add at least one more credit card recurring payment gateway, that way more customers will be attracted I suppose :D

Last but not least, the variety of system distros are "panicky" not enough. Such as only Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, FreeBSD is provided, others would need harder pathway to install. For me I use vps2arch script to convert Ubuntu to ArchLinux, despite this is a working method, still as a customer I would like the merchant provides more distro for various selection.

**Recommendations to others considering LeaseWeb Cloud:**

Fast, stable, premium service.

**What problems is LeaseWeb Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Peering is the most thing I treasure. As networking is most important to take care of, leaseweb did a great job out of the other providers, giving us a great opportunity to have a stable network performance.
