Cherry Servers
Verdict: Customizable dedicated bare metal cloud and virtual servers aimed at developers and system administrators are the specialization of Cherry Servers. The company also stands out among the competitors with a flexible pricing policy, and variable pricing options, and free 24/7 technical support, so you can rest assured that your applications are always up and running.
Cherry Servers has the main office in Lithuania and is considered one of the most popular service (IaaS) hosting solutions, which excels the competitors with a robust infrastructure. Integration, deployment, and management of cloud services is a no-brainer for DevOps engineers as they leverage RESTful API, Ansible, and Terraform modules.
The popularity of Cherry Servers is explained by their open and vendor-agnostic multi-cloud environment to ensure that various workloads run where they are needed most. In contrast, the competitors prefer locking their clients in their managed ecosystem.
One of the biggest strengths of the company is its intuitive and easy-to-navigate UI. It is full of details about the available plans. However, the interface is only available in English. The website’s UX allows choosing the best pre-built server or creating a completely new one without a hitch.
The website offers all the details you might require to choose the most optimal server for your project. Besides, the agency boasts round-the-clock customer support to solve all the issues in a matter of minutes.
Cherry Servers boasts a straightforward interface that can be easily customized according to your specific requirements and specifications for the servers.
The ability to adjust the server to your exact requirements is another advantage. This process will take up to 24 hours.
Cherry Servers has both shared and dedicated servers, which is great news for anyone who is interested in a virtual server. All the available plans include a personal account manager, free 24/7 technical support, flexible billing options, 99.97% SLA uptime, full control via RESTful API, Python or GO, cloud management with DevOPs integrations, unmetered bandwidth, CDN integrations. However, they offer different storage, RAM, or processing power.
When it comes to servers, the company provides anonymous cloud hosting, dedicated GPU servers and hosting, virtual servers, spot servers, infrastructure services, network services, and cloud storage VPS servers that function like cloud storage for photos or video.
You are free to select the servers that fully meet your specific requirements. Besides, the company will only charge you for the time you use these servers.
It is also to my taste that the company induces users to acquire a free server space, which is an unused server capacity at any time period, instead of on-demand space. If you run a stateless or fault-tolerant app, a spot server is an ideal fit. It will let you get up to 70% discount on the regular price.
However, the company’s specialists can terminate your server in an instant if they need the resource and only let you know about it two minutes before it.
Cherry Servers can become a handy assistant for both big and beginning companies. Large-scale dedicated servers can bring e-commerce platforms and websites to success. But only a few people need such extensive bandwidth and storage capacity. For example, if you want to develop a new application and want to test it in live mode, a spot server is an ideal option.
Cherry Servers’ technical and sales teams are available round-the-clock. They provide consultation via live chat on the website or email. The support is delivered by real people who can respond to all your requirements in a matter of minutes.
All the company’s servers are protected with free DDoS, which detects and neutralizes any attack. Besides, it is possible to create your own SSH keys and dedicate them to the desired servers.
Two-factor authentication is another aspect that ensures a high level of protection from unauthorized access. IP access restrictions, user roles, and other factors also contribute to the overall security.
Besides, all the services are audited, whereas an absolute GDPR compliance makes certain that your data and personal info is in a complete safety.
Another great plus is that all the company’s servers run smoothly because of being on uptime. This means that you can easily access your website and data whenever you need them.
What is more, Cherry Servers integrates with various DevOps services, third-party apps, and networks such as Cloudflare, Backblaze, etc., which extends the functionality of the platform considerably.
All customers can clear any issue with their dedicated account managers to get the required help for all services.
The cost of dedicated servers starts from $111/mo, virtual servers — $9.99/mo. The price of the custom server builder depends on the selected parameters of the hardware, storage, network, software, and billing cycle.
