総合スコアは保留
The evidence coverage is insufficient for a single overall score. The dimension results below are evidence assessments, not a universal quality ranking.
結論
A clear option for European and multi-region workloads that value zero-cost egress and confirmed dual-stack networking. The overall score is withheld because backup terms, taxes and independent performance are not fully assessed.
評価項目
Assessed dimensions have a score and rationale. Not-assessed dimensions remain visibly unknown; they are not assigned a neutral score.
| 項目 | 状態 | スコア | 根拠と証拠 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location fit | assessed | 3 / 5 | The data-center page lists Helsinki, London, Warsaw, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, San Jose, New York, Singapore and Sydney, all captured here. Per-size stock is not confirmed. |
| Network performance | not assessed | 総合スコアは保留 | No independent throughput, latency or packet-loss test was run on this provider. |
| Policies and limitations | assessed | 3 / 5 | Zero-cost egress, included IPv4 and free public IPv6 are stated. Backup pricing, snapshot inclusion, SLA terms and refund policy were not fully reviewed. |
| Price transparency | assessed | 4 / 5 | Prices exclude local taxes and are charged hourly with a monthly estimate. USD values use the ECB reference rate and are rounded. |
| Source freshness | assessed | 5 / 5 | The selected official sources were observed on 2026-10-24. |
| Specifications | assessed | 4 / 5 | Memory, CPU cores, bandwidth, standard SSD storage and monthly EUR price are published for each Starter plan. Virtualization is not stated. |
| Support and reliability | not assessed | 総合スコアは保留 | No support interaction or independent reliability data was collected. |
強み
- Zero-cost egress under the provider's Fair Transfer Policy.
- IPv4 is included and public IPv6 is free.
- Nine selected data centers across Europe, North America, Asia and Australia.
- Transparent Starter plan specifications and EUR pricing.
弱みと制約
- Backup pricing and snapshot inclusion are unknown.
- Prices exclude local taxes.
- No independent network or disk measurement.
適する用途
- Egress-heavy services that benefit from zero-cost transfer
- Dual-stack services with confirmed IPv4 and IPv6
- European or multi-region small deployments
適さない用途
- Backup-critical workloads without further verification
- Buyers who need a tax-inclusive quote from this dataset
- Workloads requiring measured performance
既知の不明点
- Backup pricing
- Snapshot inclusion
- Virtualization
- Local tax treatment
- Independent performance and reliability
制約
- Provider pricing and data-center pages only; no UpCloud instance was purchased or benchmarked.
- Six plans and nine selected locations are covered, not the full UpCloud catalog.
Correction path: use the source links and verification dates to challenge a claim. Do not treat an old snapshot as current.
代替案
Scaleway DEV1-M
Comparable 4 GB plan with API evidence, though block storage and egress differ.
Vultr Cloud Compute 2 vCPU · 4 GB
Similar 4 GB class with API-published locations, but IP support is unknown there.
