KO Kristian O. Software Developer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/9/2025 "Responsive and great support channels, fair CPU server pricing and good amount of features" 4/5 What do you like best about UpCloud? Extremely responsive and great customer support, no need to wait to get responses to your questions and feedback is taken to team directly from the support chat. Servers offer latest 5th Gen EPYC CPUs (9575F to be specific), which have very good performance for both multi-core and single-core needs. Very generous "Fair Usage Limit" for outgoing network bandwidth outside the DC's. It's basically free egress unless you're doing something really heavy, in which case I believe a quick chat with the customer support will solve that as well. For more direct server management/usage, it's been very easy to use, instructions on how to connect to the server using SSH are easily available and reflect the current network settings of given server. The CPU server pricing is very fair given the above, and I have a 24/7 WebRTC SFU running on one lower-end server without any issues or downtime so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UpCloud? GPU pricing is bit heavier compared to other providers, also there's only single GPU model available at the moment and it's only NVIDIA (L40S). Would love to see other vendors for their SR-IOV support. Lack of CaaS (Container as a Service) features, there's Kubernetes but that's quite heavy for my simpler needs. Lack of Team/Project grouping or similar feature which allows multiple accounts to manage shared servers with possibly shared funds. The feature is in their roadmap, however I believe this is quite important for any larger projects and should've been added long ago. Some of the server templates are very outdated, granted it's hard to keep a rolling distribution such as Arch up-to-date, but since it's an option - I'd expect it to be kept up-to-date with couple months of lag atleast, not over a year. Additionally, the custom image storage option is perhaps bit too pricey, since you can have storage device with same size bundled with a server plan for way cheaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you? We utilize UpCloud with low-latency cloud streaming for virtual desktops, gaming and other needs. Our solution requires recent and capable CPU models to handle multitude of workloads, with powerful enough GPU to handle anything from 3D modeling and rendering to gaming on the go. So far UpCloud is meeting those expectations very well, other providers tend to use older and/or weaker CPUs which always were a bottleneck for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Systemutvikler Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/25/2026 "Simple, EU-Hosted Hosting with Strong Data Sovereignty and Support" 4/5 What do you like best about UpCloud? It is as simple as digital ocean but it is EU hosted, making it the perfect fit for small to medium product-teams that care about data sovereignty Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UpCloud? Not much to say. However the difference between block storage, object storage and file storage can be confusing at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you? Well. EU-hosting, servers located in Norway and good support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If we need to get our work done faster, we can go to Upcloud since it has high-performance SSD storage at reasonable pricing. There is good transparency in pricing, which is fixed. We can get in touch for any assistance, which is quite easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UpCloud? The documentation is not very good because it cannot match AWS in that regard. The data centers are fewer compared to AWS availability zones. We can use it for small companies, but for MNCs, it is not suitable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you? One significant advantage is that any large application, which would eventually slow down your cloud server, will perform well because it has a really good SSD. Easy scalability.

KB Kanishk B. Software Engineer Specialist Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 6/14/2023 "Review about Upcloud" 3.5/5 What do you like best about UpCloud? The downtime of the server is negligible and helps the user to acces the service more quickly and effectively. Loading performance of the website becomes more faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UpCloud? There is no free trial or the premium version is available initially which makes people think about before taking the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you? It is more fast and efficient while accessing the applications over the server. Pricing also seems to he descent for the new users.

Cloud Engineer Information Technology and Services Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 4/28/2022 "Computational backend support offered by UpCloud is satisfactory for our Cloud Servers" 4/5 What do you like best about UpCloud? UpCloud provisions compute services for our organization which includes data storage & computational capacities without directly managing the server. It gives flexible plans with predefined resource allocations and configuration options based on our necessities. Its billing is processed on an hourly basis and sends the cloud resource expenditure every month to our business email. In case we want to enable its metadata service, we can do it directly at any point without having the need to restart our cloud server. UpCloud ensures to reflect the changes on a real-time basis which is helpful while working with distributed teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UpCloud? UpCloud doesn't offer licenses for a few of our requirements. Recently we had a customer request to work with MS SQL server in UpCloud platform but since it doesn't provide MS SQL license, we notified the client and moved the deployment to the AWS platform. It would be great if UpCloud provides licenses for popular software so that we can integrate them and work on a single platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you? UpCloud guarantees 100% SLA for our cloud servers which effectively prevents unscheduled interruptions in our cloud infrastructure. We also utilize dedicated servers for a few of our business use cases and also resize its storage capacity in its server settings. For secure communications between our internal servers, we configure its SDN private network feature which gives me more control over the connected cloud servers.
