Looking for VPS in Australia - Any budget options

gtrax

Hi my LET friends,

It might be a repeating discussion but for 2023 I couldn't find any recent promo or options when trying to search for a KVM VPS in Australia to run windows. I can see the specs offered in comparison to number of other geo regions are a lot conservative so looking for a VPS ideally to run windows (I can use my own license).

Not limiting the options for budget providers however would love to see what people have used and are using when it comes to a VPS in Australia (Windows). Looking towards 2 cores and 4 gigs of ram at-least.
I have come across providers like quantumcore, acroservers, vultr, ovh, virtono to be specifc.
Virtono currently is looking like the only option that is less then or around $20. Some other providers do give VPS around that price point however, charge windows license mostly > $15 per month.

I am sure there are other providers that are around so looking for some suggestions or ideas.

Thanks.

Virtono has poor performance

Virtono - Trash - M247
Contabo - Trash - Peering horrendous
@QuantumCore - Premium
@BinaryLane - Premium - Awesome control panel features
@xTom - Premium - Expensive, wait for deal

I use QuantumCore, they've been great.

Webhosting24 is within your budget: https://console.webhosting24.com/cart.php?gid=46 (aff)

They provide Windows templates in Virtualizor, I haven't tested them, though.

We expect to be offering VPS service in Australia in the next couple months.
...a bit more expensive than our usual offerings, but still pretty inexpensive. ;-)

Considering NB's recent ungraceful exit, there may be spare space in a Melbourne DC

I doubt they rented many servers there. And no owned hardware from what I know.

Ok, I don't have any knowledge about Windows at all, but have you considered Shockhosting?
