Notre verdict

DigitalOcean
Choose DigitalOcean if you prioritise faster median TTFB in our probes (275 ms vs 318 ms). Test servers in minutes with Ubuntu and Docker. On the trade-off side, self-managed security and updates unless you pay for more.

Notre choix
ScalaHosting
Choose ScalaHosting if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($3.95/mo) and the higher overall score in our matrix (9.1 vs 9.0). SPanel avoids cPanel license price increases. On the trade-off side, fewer SPanel guides online than for cPanel.
