Pros & Cons
Google Cloud
Pros
- Very broad managed catalogue that spans VMs, GKE, serverless, several database engines, a CDN and Cloud Armor, so most infrastructure can come from one vendor.
- Global footprint, which Wikipedia put at 40 regions and 121 zones in early 2024, helps teams deploy close to users and across zones.
- A 300 USD, 90-day credit plus a permanent Always Free tier, including a small VM, lets developers prototype at no cost.
- Capterra reviewers credit its scalability with helping them adapt quickly to changing client demand.
Cons
- Capterra reviewers repeatedly say the billing is complex, hard to audit and sometimes produces unexpected charges.
- Technical support requires a paid plan priced as a percentage of spend, and Premium starts at 15,000 USD a month.
- Reviewers report a steep learning curve and inconsistent documentation.
- The free e2-micro VM is limited to three US regions, so other regions incur standard charges.
Latitude.sh
Pros
- Prices for every metal, GPU and VM plan are listed publicly, with hourly rates as well as monthly ones.
- Each listed plan includes 20 TB of outbound bandwidth, and inbound traffic is unlimited.
- Servers are offered in 26 locations, including several in Latin America such as Sao Paulo, Bogota, Santiago, Buenos Aires and Mexico City.
- Servers can be automated through the API, SDKs, CLI and a Terraform provider.
- Current-generation AMD EPYC hardware runs alongside B300, RTX PRO 6000 and H100 GPU options.
Cons
- There is no managed WordPress, managed database or serverless offering, so you need operations expertise.
- Independent user reviews are scarce, and PeerSpot shows no reviews at all.
- Bandwidth overage rates and storage prices are not shown on the main pricing page.
- The Megaport acquisition may change the roadmap over time, although Latitude.sh says the brand and billing stay the same.
