Coverage and how to read this

Coverage. Verified now (13): Azure, DigitalOcean, Exoscale, Hetzner Cloud, IONOS, Kamatera, Leaseweb, Linode / Akamai Cloud, EDIS Global, netcup, OVHcloud, Scaleway, TransIP. Stopped, terms: Vultr, Hostinger, Hostwinds, UpCloud. Blocked (the provider's site refuses automated reads; we do not work around that): Contabo. Not added yet: 33 known providers. Every VPS provider we know: covered, stale, stopped, declined, not yet added.

Sorted by list price. Plans whose price is not verified come last. Nothing on this page is paid for or sponsored; there are no affiliate links. These are list prices, not transacted prices, and they exclude VAT unless a row says otherwise. Source links go to the provider's own page.

4,688 VPS plans are tracked; 1,052 can be compared. 3,590 are left out because their source does not publish vCPU and RAM (mostly Azure (3,564) and Exoscale (26)): a spec is never guessed, so those plans cannot be put next to the others. A further 46 are not shown because 46 are only in an order catalog or no longer on the provider's public page. 9 spot plans are hidden until you include them. 19 plans take their vCPU and RAM from the reviewed hardware map that the index series already use (marked "spec: reviewed map"), because the provider's feed carries only a size code.

A monthly price that the provider lists per hour is the hourly price x 730 hours. Prices in USD are converted at the ECB rate stored for the day (latest 2026-11-13: 1.1052 USD per EUR) where the provider lists another currency; the row says which. A plan whose price has not been verified for 3 days is greyed, shows "not verified since" its last check instead of a price, sorts after every plan with a verified price (by provider, then name, never by price; a budget or an hourly-billing filter leaves it out, because its price is not used), has no dot in the chart and never gets a badge or appears in the answer.
