Low-Cost Cloud Provider Favorites

WARNING: Only use these providers if you can afford to lose your money if they abruptly go out of business or operation. Many have! If you use them, always set up a redundant server with another provider in another location. Incredible Backup is your friend. We recommend avoiding OpenVZ platforms. KVM platforms are more robust and provide additional security through ipset add-on to IPtables firewall. Never sign up with these providers for more than a year. Always fund these services using a mechanism such as PayPal which provides a six-month window for refunds if things ever come unglued. With PayPal, you also can (and should) disable recurring payments which seems to be a favorite trick of low-cost providers. You’ve been warned!

NOTE: The KVM/OVZ7 platform providers below are from better established companies and should provide an improved long-term solution. They also provide better security for publicly-exposed servers like OpenSIPS, IncrediblePBX-PUBLIC, and 3CX.

Our recommended KVM providers include Digital Ocean, Vultr, OVH, and CrownCloud ($25/yr. sites in L.A., Atlanta, Germany, and the Netherlands). You may also wish to consider the LowEndBoxes WhiteList which is screened by many of the regulars on LowEndTalk.com.
