ProHoster vs Vultr
Both appear in 3 sections: compute, egress, footprint. They are evenly matched.
This pair shows how wide the price range within the same product category has become. Vultr's cheapest usable plan is $5/month for 1 vCPU, 1 GB and 25 GB. ProHoster sells 2 vCPU, 2 GB and 20 GB for $2.60, and 8 GB for $5.90, which is roughly what Vultr charges for 1 GB. At 4 GB the difference is $4.60 against $20. Measured purely on the table, ProHoster is between four and seven times cheaper at comparable memory. What Vultr provides for that premium is everything around the instance. It runs 32 locations against ProHoster's handful, publishes a real API with a mature Terraform provider, sells bare metal and GPU instances alongside the VPS range, offers hourly billing so a machine can exist for twenty minutes, and has enough capacity that a sudden request is met. Its network and disk performance are predictable in a way that a budget provider's generally are not. ProHoster's case is the price, and for a workload that is not latency-sensitive and can tolerate a restart, it is a strong one. The honest split is that Vultr is infrastructure you build a product on and ProHoster is capacity you rent cheaply; both are legitimate, and the gap in the table is a gap in guarantees rather than in gigabytes.
