So far it was the easiest platform to set up a personal NextCloud instance. Also Vultr website and UI are very on the point.
CAUTION!
A Reddit user published a horrible secret of Vultr's Terms of Service. The Terms of Service claims as below:
As between you and us, you own your User Content and you have full responsibility for all User Content you make or submit, including its legality, reliability and appropriateness, while using the Services. You hereby grant to Vultr a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide license (including the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to use, reproduce, process, adapt, publicly perform, publicly display, modify, prepare derivative works, publish, transmit and distribute each of your User Content, or any portion thereof, in any form, medium or distribution method now known or hereafter existing, known or developed, and otherwise use and commercialize the User Content in any way that Vultr deems appropriate, without any further consent, notice and/or compensation to you or to any third parties, for purposes of providing the Services to you.

But you can see if the claim was incorrectly understood from here Term of Services: January 8, 2024 https://web.archive.org/web/20240305043015/https://www.vultr.com/legal/tos/
The funny thing is that this part has been existed since June 28, 2021. Seldom users have noticed that. Term of Services: June 28, 2021 https://web.archive.org/web/20210729200233/https://www.vultr.com/legal/tos/
In Term of Services modified on March 28, 2024, they deleted that part mentioned above. https://web.archive.org/web/20240403211710/https://www.vultr.com/legal/tos/
Good performance for the price, fast and responsive support and a simple dashboard. They do lack some features however such as firewall outbound rules and ironically you can't pay with Bitcoin unless you verify your credit card first.
The customer support from VULTR is really responsive and helpful, whether you have a problem or are just asking a question. The platform is also very easy and straight forward to use; you can get a server instance up and running (choosing from a variety of preinstalled applications or images) in no time.
Great for development and/or personal hosting. Would not trust it to host production.
You created account just to comment about this? Maybe you can tell us why to not trust this host? I'm old client now, i migrated from DO to VULTR and everything works fine/stable. They have better prices and a lot of things which you cant do with digitalocean. Anyway, they have more than 500k instances now. Anyway maybe you can tell us why not Vultr?
