[GCORELABS] KVM-SSD-1
Hello guys,
i'd been with VEESP for quite a long time and was super happy. Stable service, uptime and great customer service for a year. Because i missed this years BF-Offer, i've wanted to test another russian location, so i tried GCoreLabs (https://gcorelabs.com/hosting/vds/).
I've ordered a VPS (the smallest one) called "KVM-SSD-1" in Moscow-2. The VPS comes with the following specs:
- 1 vCPU
- 512 MB Ram
- 20 GB SSD Disc
- 200 Mbit unlimited bandwidth (no throtteling)
Because i've been wondering about the "bad" performance, i've also raised a support ticket where their support states the following:
- Limited to 1000 IOPS
- Limited to 150 MB/s (disc wise)
- Proof
Overall im quite fine with their service so far, good support reaction times, VPS seems solid even though its limited. Will keep testing it for a few more weeks and update this review once the period is over.
Here is the test-result:

Scam
Hey bud
Looks like I was late for 2 years. I recently discovered this company by chance when running a Goggle search - got attempted by this price in such a remote location 
I actually started using them a few days ago and had already written a short review on another side of the community after 5 hours of service activation. Now suddenly finding your post randomly by searching up the keyword, I decided to write an updated one.
Has never been down for a second so far. Running a small game server only.
Well - can't expect too much from the host node but I would say it is 100% as per product description so I trust they are solid.
But no idea why I couldn't get the GB5 result
Other than this - all good.
My verdict is - If looking for rare locations that we don't see offer in LET, definitely worth considering them. Support ticket is dealt with quite fast.
