Well-suited scenarios: 1. Large Organisations with more than at least a thousand employees. 2. Teams spanning across multiple countries or regions. 3. Research institutes require privacy and confidentiality. 4. Educational institutes to separate departments from various attacks. Less appropriate scenarios: 1. Startups have less than 100 employees. 2. Users are accessing resources from the same place.

Vultr is well suited for South African based organisations as they have a presence here. It makes dev servers for WordPress more feasible. Having to wait on roundtrips from EU or US slow things down.
Ease of setting up new servers, with clear information on what you are getting for what you pay, makes it so easy to spin up just what you need. With a large range of specifications it means you can find that sweet spot of cost vs. performance.

Cons
  • Google Cloud VPC support for Oracle Databases is still the lagging point. Improvement in that front is need of the hour
  • Google Cloud VPC still needs to work on Technical customer services.
  • Google still not among the first to launch new services which makes the customers to choose other Cloud solution providers.

  • the ability of increasing a specific configuration without the need of upgrading the whole plan, for example i might need to add more memory but i'm satisfied with my current processors and hard disk capacity (or vise versa)
  • Solving the problems of taking an image to the server if the server capacity (hard disk) is bigger than 1TB (which i'm currently facing a big problem because of that)

We’ve been extremely satisfied with the service for many years. After trying other providers, we’ve found nothing that matches the reliability and performance—so we’re not likely to switch anytime soon.

Usability
VPC is a difficult concept to grasp and recommendations for configuring it would be helpful in educating the users to make the right choice while using the product in configuring networking for their cloud deployments. Also, the user interface can be intuitively designed so as to suggest templates to perform common configurations with regard to VPC.

easy to use and configure. great bang for the buck. I need an affordable solution to host in the cloud data from systems installed at our client's site with the ability to drill down and change the configuration remotely. Vultr enabled us to do that in an efficient and affordable way.

Alternatives Considered
On Cloud storage, Google Cloud VPC has an edge over the rest of the service providers. Also, Google Cloud VPC is the ideal choice for AI/ML and data analytics because of Google's reputation in these fields. Google Cloud VPC, on the other hand, provides a secure private network, despite the fact that there is no trace of the public network on it. Google Cloud VPC services are also less expensive than those offered by other cloud service providers.

Vultr has better support and competitive pricing. The network is solid and globally deployed. IP reputation is clean, and security is tight. Ease of use and documentation is really good. User experience has been the best I ever experienced. Low stress, reliable hosting I would recommend to anyone. It helped me easily scale and expand my business.
