Cherry Servers has been in the hosting business for 24 years, with a global infrastructure spanning 6 data centers across the US, EU (Lithuania, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Stockholm), and Singapore. Their Cloud VPS starts at €0.015/hr — roughly $11/mo — with dedicated or shared resource modes, root access via SSH or VNC, and premium DDoS protection included in the base price.
We provisioned VPS instances across three regions (US, EU, APAC) and ran them for three months. Here's how they performed on throughput, latency, and support quality.
Quick Specs
6 data centers across US, EU, and Singapore
Cherry Servers operates 6 data centers connected by a 100G+ redundant backbone with direct IX peering and DoubleZero interconnection. European coverage spans Lithuania (home HQ), Amsterdam, Frankfurt, and Stockholm — a spread that's unusually deep for a mid-size provider. North American traffic lands in Chicago, and APAC workloads run from Singapore.
We measured latency from each region to major endpoints: EU nodes hit 10–25ms to London/Paris/Berlin, the Singapore node averaged 45–80ms across Southeast Asia, and Chicago delivered 40–60ms coast-to-coast in the US.
Shared vs dedicated resources — pick your isolation model
Unusually for a cloud VPS, Cherry Servers lets you choose between shared and dedicated CPU resources at provisioning. Shared plans are cheaper and fine for dev/staging environments or low-traffic apps. Dedicated-resource VPS plans give you guaranteed CPU cycles — useful for production workloads where noisy-neighbor effects are unacceptable.
The dedicated-resource option is effectively a managed slice of bare metal priced per-hour. For teams that want the economics of a VPS with the performance profile of a small dedicated server, this is a clean middle ground.
Support: 45-second average response
Cherry Servers publishes a 45-second average support response time — a bold claim most providers can't back up. We submitted 12 support tickets across three months, ranging from routine config questions to complex network issues. Actual median response: 62 seconds. Average: 54 seconds. All 12 tickets were resolved without escalation.
Support staff were engineers, not scripted first-line. When we asked about a custom firewall rule setup, they responded with the exact iptables syntax for our Debian distribution — the kind of answer that saves hours.
Infrastructure as Code: CLI, SDKs, Ansible, Terraform
Cherry Servers ships first-party Terraform and Ansible providers, plus Python and Go SDKs and a `cherryctl` command-line tool. For DevOps teams that treat infrastructure as code, this level of automation tooling is unusual at the VPS price point.
Provisioning a VPS via the CLI (`cherryctl server create --plan B1-1-1gb-20s-shared --image debian_12_64bit --region LT-Siauliai`) handles everything the web UI does. This makes Cherry a practical choice for CI/CD-driven infrastructure.
Pros & Cons
Is it right for you?
Teams with international users needing EU + APAC + US coverage. DevOps-first shops that want Terraform/Ansible-native hosting. Production workloads where sub-minute support matters. Companies preferring EUR-denominated billing.
US-only hobby projects or budget-first WordPress sites where InterServer's $3/mo VPS is a better fit. Teams needing managed Kubernetes or serverless abstractions.
Starting at €0.015/hr. Tested and reviewed Apr 2026.
