I've seen a lot of basic reviews online but I'm looking for real production use feedback/review

I'm considering vultr, digitalocean, linode

I have used digital ocean and vultr. From a technical review I used vultr and digital ocean differently. On vultr I ran some large Windows servers. For digital ocean I run all sorts of things.

In my experience, Digital Ocean's support is much much better than Vultr. Towards the end of my used of Vultr I had some pricing disputes for some IP address blocks.

On the other hand Digital Ocean gave me account credit when I reached out.

I can't speak for linode.

Good to see a first hand review. Just checking if anybody in the forum has used and/or considered server4you.com. Their prices and server specifications look very competitive

Thanks for the feedback; vultr seems to have newer hardware which results in faster servers; but I also read some where else about their bad customer service.
