Comparison of providers – presented honestly

centron in the Comparison

When choosing cloud infrastructure, people usually compare three things: price, ease of use and performance. Here you’ll find both – direct comparisons of individual providers and market overviews covering entire product categories.

Market Overview

Comparing entire product categories

These guides set out the selection criteria for a product category – based on verified figures rather than marketing claims.

Direct comparisons

centron versus individual providers

A comparison of the scope of services, billing model and quality of support – in each case, based on the criteria that matter in day-to-day operations.

GPU product comparisons

Cloud GPUs for AI and rendering

A comparison of NVIDIA models, prices and availability – for AI training, inference and computationally intensive workloads.

What matters

The three criteria we examine in every comparison

Price

ccloud³ VMs from €3.12 per month, billed by the hour and with no minimum contract term. Inbound traffic is free, and S3 traffic is fully included – what matters is what a real configuration costs per month, not the advertised entry-level price.

Calculate costs

Usability

A ccloud³ VM is provisioned in around 38 seconds – no ticket required, no activation needed. Anything that can be done via the user interface can also be done via the API. And if you don’t want to manage it yourself at all, you can hand over the operation to Managed Services.

Performance

How we compare

All information relating to centron is taken from the price list, the price calculator or the service specifications and is therefore verifiable. Where competitors are concerned, we deliberately refrain from quoting our own figures: tariffs change, and out-of-date information does not help anyone to make a decision. Instead, we set out the criteria you can use to make your own comparisons.
