What Data Do We Track?

We look past the "marketing specs" to give you the technical details that actually matter for performance and reliability.

Normalized Pricing

We calculate the true monthly cost, factoring in setup fees and currency conversion, so you compare apples to apples.

vCPU vs Cores

We distinguish between shared vCPUs (VPS) and dedicated Cores (VDS/Dedicated) to set realistic performance expectations.

RAM Type

Where available, we specify DDR4 vs DDR5 RAM, as newer memory can significantly boost application performance.

Storage Tech

NVMe is vastly faster than SSD, which is faster than HDD. We verify storage types to ensure you get the speed you pay for.

Port Speed

1Gbps is standard, but some providers offer 10Gbps or unmetered bandwidth. We track these limits carefully.

Locations

Latency matters. We list every available datacenter region for each provider so you can host near your users.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do prices vary so much for the 'same' specs?

Hardware quality and network premium vary. A $5 VPS might use older hardware and shared 1Gbps uplinks, while a $10 VPS might offer NVMe storage, DDR5 RAM, and premium peering. Cheap isn't always better for production.

What is the difference between VPS and VDS?

A VPS (Virtual Private Server) usually shares CPU time with other users. A VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) gives you dedicated CPU cores that no one else can use, guaranteeing consistent performance.

Can I trust the data?

We verify data manually from provider pricing pages. However, prices change. Always double-check the final price on the provider's checkout page before buying.

Why don't you have [Provider Name]?

We are constantly adding new verified providers. If you are a provider or want to suggest one, please contact us.
