Scaleway

The best cloud solutions for any project you need

Comments: Scaleway offers high performance with affordable pricing ,which clearly makes the difference over all cloud services available.

Pros:

Easy to self-provision services and with lower prices than the global competence.

Cons:

For this last 3 years I've only faced issues with with instances being unresponsive three times, though this is an expected bevahiour in any cloud environment. Having Support team engaged provide a solution within few hours.

One of the best provider I ever used

Comments: A lot of improvements the last few years, reasonable prices, and top notch technology.

Pros:

Everything is self-service, you can easily predict your bills, service is stable and customer support, on Slack, is awesome !

Cons:

- Missing managed MongoDB hosting- That's it.

Guaranteed safety and performance

Pros:

A customer recommended that we deploy and store the project data in a Scaleway object storage space. We have already used other solutions from other providers. However, we really liked the speed at which the data is transferred. Sharing information with our client's work team has become very efficient. Someone uploads a file and in less than 2 seconds another is already downloading it. It's amazing how fast the storage is processed and published. We deployed a Stardust VPS to install the project manager. We were a bit concerned about latency and database throughput. But we were not disappointed, the instance has done a good job so far.

Cons:

Does not accept prepaid credit cards. Some services are not contracted definitively, without first testing them. We are concerned about exposing the data of our clients and ours. So we resort to testing the services by paying with prepaid credit cards from our technical team, and if everything has worked well, we contract the service. We only contracted with Scaleway because a client recommended this service to us. But normally we wouldn't have bought it without trying it.

My experience with Scaleway

Pros:

Ease of use when it comes to setup, scaling and installation, also the wide image library.

Cons:

Network stability is one of the biggest issues I've had over the years of being a Scaleway customer, but I've seen it greatly improve over the last few months.

It is possible to grow with low costs

Comments: In my case I use scaleway to instantiate applications and hostings. By having low costs, I have been able to grow without having to invest large amounts of money, and feeling supported as the service has always been excellent.

Pros:

I have used various VPS services and scaleway has fair instances that allow small businesses to grow. The console is excellent, it allows the customization of what is just and necessary. It has helped me to be able to increase my sales without having an excessive cost.

Cons:

I think it would be nice to have databases at a slightly lower cost, for general use.
