Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Follow-up after 6 months. One re-boot for some back-end hardware work, but decent warning and explanation. Else the VM has been flawless and performance remains solid. One request for help which was a mis-understanding on my part of the VM's network interfaces. Support was quick, accurate, helpful and polite. In spite of having to use a credit-card (instead of crypto) I added more money to my account with the expectation of continuing to use LightNode's service. Billing has been low maintenance and hassle-free so far.
  • There are some featured country nodes, which is why I chose them. The price is also very cheap, and after testing there is no significant overselling. The network is stable and I have deployed both WordPress and WooCommerce without any inaccessibility.
  • Sadly no pros in this service. I tried hard to get a refund, but they do not care about it so i can't give any pros.
  • I've only used it for a week, but: - Good performance (low-end instance). - Works pretty much as expected. - Decent pricing.

Cons

  • As last time (and some may have changed because I didn't go through the latest news before writing this.) - Crypto payments would be welcome. - Better flexibility with elastic IP's. - Better flexibility with mountable volumes. - Cheap block/object storage for backup reasons would be nice.
  • No cPanel yet, can only use the WordPress application image they provide to deploy. Single product category, only VPS.
  • Not recommended for these reasons: - RDP they provide not elastic IPs are different with Server - RDP Are low Quality with different langue for example if you take the RDP of the UK you will get a system with Chinese language - Support does not care about your case - Poor Service Poor Servers Poor Support
  • - Cannot pay using cryptocurrency - I wish IPV4 addresses could be leases/switched more flexibly, but I've not had that problem yet. - Block Storage says cannot be mounted on a different instance. Neutral: failure to look up a benign domain addy with supplied nameservers, but adding to resolv.conf fixed the issue.
