"Our very positive experiences with UpCloud and their MaxIOPS architecture"

4.5/5

What do you like best about UpCloud?

Well the first thing we love is just how passionate these guys are for performance. Their MaxIOPS technology really rocks (both disk and network). Compared to everything else we've tried the UpCloud instances are super snappy. We switched out from AWS/DigitalOcean after we had run a number of tests to verify the claims. They are a very friendly bunch as well and we love that they aren't a large mega-corp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UpCloud?

We haven't really found much not to like. The dashboard is very easy to use, the servers are easy to provision, and we can understand the billing (which is more than we can say for many others). If I had to come up with something - I dunno, maybe a better way to create servers in bulk. They are doing good as far as we are concerned. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering UpCloud:

Don't hesitate to give them a go, and you're more than welcome to talk to me if you have any questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is UpCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a startup developing a very high performance distributed compute platform and need to be able to run tests on close to bare metal cloud instances. Finding UpCloud has saved us a lot of money since nobody else offers things like 20 CPU instances and very fast I/O for any reasonable sum of money. It's been a big deal for us and we have been very pleased with our experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
