Unser Urteil

Unsere Wahl

Cloudways

Choose Cloudways if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (9.2 vs 8.6) and faster median TTFB in our probes (292 ms vs 355 ms). Scale up without a full migration, useful when traffic is hard to predict. On the trade-off side, more expensive than a raw VPS. Know the trade before committing.

Hover

Choose Hover if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($5.99/mo). Domain and email forwarding without a large hosting bundle. On the trade-off side, not for heavy WooCommerce hosting.

Should I pick Cloudways or Hover?+

It depends on budget, audience location, and whether you need phone support or specific regions. Our overall scores are 9.2 vs 8.6; cross-check the table with your must-haves, then confirm renewals on the host's checkout.

Do you run live tests on both providers?+

Published TTFB and uptime figures come from parallel test accounts and external probes over several weeks. Storage and site limits reflect published grids checked in April 2026.
