Pros

  • Five locations and four network profiles on one account: China Premium Optimised in Los Angeles (GIA + 9929 + CMIN2), BGP in Hong Kong and Tokyo, 9929 routing in Frankfurt, IIJ in Osaka, and an international line
  • The cheapest plan on the store is genuinely cheap — Los Angeles Global Starter at $8.00/quarter or $28.00/year for 1 core, 1 GB and 2 TB of monthly transfer on a 1 Gbps port
  • The China-optimised entry price is competitive: $18.00/quarter, or $52.00/year on the annual Special Offer, for a Los Angeles IP on CN2 GIA alongside AS9929 and CMIN2
  • The annual Special Offer line discounts the same specifications — $52.00/year against $66.00/year for the identical Hong Kong or Los Angeles Optimised Starter plan
  • The same $18.00/quarter also buys the AMD/Intel line: 2 GB of RAM, 30 GB of disk, 1 TB of transfer and a 300 Mbps port, against the GIA plan's 1 GB, 10 GB, 500 GB and 200 Mbps
  • Hardware generation is stated per plan (EPYC 7002/7003, Xeon Gold 6248, Xeon Platinum 8452Y, Ryzen 9 7950X, EPYC 9354P) rather than hidden behind a brand name
  • The fair-use limits are published as numbers: CPU at 80% for more than a day or 50% for more than three days, and bandwidth at 50% for six hours or 50 Mbps for twelve hours
  • A dedicated-server line exists for buyers who need more than a VPS, and the VDS group explicitly permits Windows with your own licence

Cons

  • The AUP prohibits 'Proxies and VPNs' outright — along with adult content and IRC — which is the reason most buyers look for a China-optimised VPS in the first place
  • No monthly billing exists anywhere on the store; the shortest commitment is one quarter, and the Special Offer and Falkenstein lines are annual-only
  • Refunds are narrow: 3 days, no more than 10 GB of traffic, a maximum of two refunds per account, and a list of exclusions that includes 'The network is not good enough' and IP geolocation
  • The Special Offer line is advertised as non-refundable, which is the line that carries the lowest prices
  • Five of the fourteen product groups were entirely out of stock on 27 September 2026, including the whole Tokyo Intel and Los Angeles Ryzen 9 lines
  • No numeric SLA is published anywhere: the home page promises redundant power and Equinix colocation, while the ToS promises compensation 'within the time frame specified in this agreement' without specifying one
