What attracted us to ProfitBricks, from the technical
side, was that the entire service is designed to
behave exactly like a physical server and data
center environment. ProfitBricks does not place any
restrictions on the design of the networks we need
in the cloud.

NPS may add 1,000 users overnight and require high-performance infrastructure
to support usage spikes. Our previous hosting provider had some serious
service and performance issues that necessitated a change. We migrated
everything to ProfitBricks.”

Costs fell by 50 percent instantly after we switched from AWS. We saved money
everywhere; on servers, storage and traffic. Additionally ProfitBricks support, which we have
been very happy with, is also completely free of charge, so we cut costs there too.
ProfitBricks’ pricing is also much more transparent and predictable; we pay for exactly the
resources we require rather than being forced to buy more than we need.
- David Chen, VP of Engineering
