Ask HN: An alternative to Linode?

Post by tsemnivar » Fri, Jun 07, 2013, 11:54 AM UTC

I was going to move my work to Linode within the past week or so, but then the credit card fiasco happened.

I assume the worst is over, but I don't know if I should risk using Linode.

Are there any alternatives that seem to be on par with Linode?

I switched over to DigitalOcean a while back and haven't had any issues. Relatively speedy support response, cheap, SSDs, I'm happy at least for my meagre VPS needs.

Yes, DigitalOcean is definitely a good alternative, take a look at www.digitalocean.com/customer-stories!

I'm a really big fan of Ramnode right now. Very well priced with great performance. Alternatively you can look at serverbear.com for comparisons.
