Scaleway offers high performance with affordable pricing ,which clearly makes the difference over all cloud services available. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Easy to self-provision services and with lower prices than the global competence. #### Cons For this last 3 years I've only faced issues with with instances being unresponsive three times, though this is an expected bevahiour in any cloud environment. Having Support team engaged provide a solution within few hours. #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway Pricing and performance. --- ### Guaranteed safety and performance - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Angelo M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros A customer recommended that we deploy and store the project data in a Scaleway object storage space. We have already used other solutions from other providers. However, we really liked the speed at which the data is transferred. Sharing information with our client's work team has become very efficient. Someone uploads a file and in less than 2 seconds another is already downloading it. It's amazing how fast the storage is processed and published. We deployed a Stardust VPS to install the project manager. We were a bit concerned about latency and database throughput. But we were not disappointed, the instance has done a good job so far. #### Cons Does not accept prepaid credit cards. Some services are not contracted definitively, without first testing them. We are concerned about exposing the data of our clients and ours. So we resort to testing the services by paying with prepaid credit cards from our technical team, and if everything has worked well, we contract the service. We only contracted with Scaleway because a client recommended this service to us. But normally we wouldn't have bought it without trying it. --- ### Scaleway is a good backup product for a good price - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jacob S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Cloud backup storage is cheap and has most of the functionality of Amazon. #### Cons Getting data into glacier was a pain.

Scaleway is a brilliant hosting platform for small hobbyist developers such as myself. It's super cheap and reliable. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Insanely cheap, it's much cheaper than competitors' hosting. Very reliable, have never had it go down on me except for one bug due to me mis-understanding an option. SSH key synchronisation between all instances is very useful. #### Cons I would prefer if the console was automatically setup, without needing to set a root password. This is not much of an issue though. #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway Much cheaper than alternative products. --- ### Great cloud solutions for small and larger business projects - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Cyril B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Working with Scaleway has been a great experience for the last 4 years. Flexible deployments, fast provisioning of all services and great customer service are really making a difference for my business. Scaleway has recently accelerated its growth and you can see a lot of great innovations and new services being launched which are really exciting. #### Cons Some features were launched then suspended due to difficulties scaling the infrastructure. A good example of this is Object storage that was taken away for a long time before recently coming back. --- ### Wide range of reliable and performant cloud services - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Giuseppe G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Scaleway offers great cloud services at a fantastic price. I have used their cloud servers and object storage, their services are reliable, performant and easy to use. I also like that they have a wide variety of services that integrate very well for a 100% cloud infrastructure. Their support team is also fast to respond and was always able to solve my issues. #### Cons The only con I can think about is their payment methods, which are a bit restrictive. Some prepaid cards do not work and they do not offer other payment gateways, such as PayPal. --- ### Cost effective dedicated server with decent quality - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Abhik B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer & Network Security - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

At that price no other company offer dedibox of this quality #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros 1. Scaleway network is very good and high speed. ~800 Mbps upload and download speed 2. Full IPv6 support with PTR 3. Additional IP and IP block purchase option 4. FTP backup #### Cons 1. Setup fee 2. Support response becomes slow after first response 3. IPv6 via DHCPv6. Need complex setup. However, works fine if done correctly 4. Can't split IPv6 block to more number than the IPv4 you have 5. Product must be cancelled by 20th of the month if user wish. Otherwise it will be billed for the next month #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway Yes. For dedicated server I always chose Scaleway Dedibox over OVH, Hetzner etc. However, for VPS hetzner is chepaer than Scaleway cloud. --- ### Positive expérience - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Maxime V. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer & Network Security - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

With more and more ARM-based devices rolling out, having service instances running on ARM architecture is a big plus for any company. #### Cons The interface has gone through a few iterations but they never seem to quite hit the right one. I find it pretty difficult to navigate at this time. --- ### Object Storage de qualité - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kévin M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Excelent Support with quick response. #### Cons Setup fee for long lasting customers might be waived. #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway Support was terrible --- ### Absurdly horrible, Kafkaesque experience - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Targo T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: November 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered This was the most horrible customer support experience I have had in my 25 years in IT. I signed up for the service, purchased a bunch of stuff and started working on it. Then they sent me mail, giving me 48 hours to "verify" myself, requiring me to jump through various hoops. No other hosting company has ever required anything like this. Their online verification service failed with a cryptic error, so I postponed it to the next day. Just 24 hours after the initial e-mail they sent another message, giving me one hour (!) to respond, or my account will be closed. Is this a mafia or something? I responded immediately and also performed the verification steps. However, in 20 minutes, my account was locked and I lost a lot of work that I had done on the server. The customer "service" after that was absurd. The console kept telling me to "open a ticket", but the helpdesk just kept replying that "this is not something that they can do anything about". #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros There's a wide choice of services, prices seem reasonable at first. Setup went reasonably smoothly as well. #### Cons Don't put anything on their servers that you would be sorry about losing at a moments notice. Horrible customer service. You can locked out of your data at any time. --- ### Expérience décevante avec Scaleway - Support inacceptable - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Geoffrey F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Je suis extrêmement déçu par les services de Scaleway, en particulier le support technique qui laisse à désirer. Mon serveur, qui héberge des sites Web critiques pour mes clients, a rencontré un problème matériel (barrette de mémoire défectueuse). Malgré plusieurs demandes, Scaleway n'a pas été capable de fournir une solution adéquate ou rapide. Leurs engagements contractuels de disponibilité et de réparation matérielle n'ont pas été respectés. J'ai demandé à plusieurs reprises des solutions (désactiver la RAM défectueuse, transférer les disques sur un autre serveur), mais ces demandes sont restées sans réponse. Résultat : des pannes prolongées, des données perdues, et un impact financier direct pour mes clients, qui ont dû réencoder manuellement des données perdues. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Tant que ça tourne, ça va... Dés qu'il y a un problème hardware, il ne peuvent rien faire. #### Cons Le qu'il y ai un support mais qu'il n'agit pas pour réparer leur matériel. --- ### Scaleway Dedibox is the best servers hosting service - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ali L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Satisfied and happy, best price best service. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I have been managing servers for customers hosted on Dedibox platform for more than 5 years now, It has been a very long Journey, it wasn't always very pleasant but over all the service was very reliable very affordable and the support was always great. I have also been hosting my own server on the platform. #### Cons Worst thing that happened was a sudden change of price for a server, and a cancelation of service without any prior notice for suspicion of fraud which wasn't based on any strong evidence and end up causing huge data loss. All those were some isolated cases and over all I would say I'm still satisficed with all the other Good aspects, and all the Happy long years we were getting a good service. #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway We use both of them for now, But for some servers we use Scaleway Dedibox because of the good clear prices and the Good service. OVH has higher prices and not a very reliable service, Htzner is Good also but their pricing is a little High compared to Scaleway Dedibox. --- ### Reliable and inexpensive server farm, with excellent service - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: ezra n. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, today I set up servers only on Scaleway. The service and prices are excellent. And the operation. Highly recommend :) #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros My favorite thing is that there is excellent deployment ease, including in the API, and that the prices are excellent + per hour If you did not use, you did not pay. That it's really comfortable for software developers who want to test and try all sorts of options without committing too much. In addition, they have a variety of complementary services, like their S3 service, physical servers, and more I must also mention their built-in firewall. The attacks are stopped even before reaching the server (of course the server has extra protection, but it helps that it is stopped before) and it is really comfortable and excellent. #### Cons Unfortunately, there is no option to build a server from ISO. And also lacks the option of installing a Windows server, which is really important sometimes. Plus, it would have been very nice if it was possible to increase the main HD instead of connecting an external HD #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway I moved to Scaleway mostly because of simplicity of operation #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway I moved to Scaleway mostly because of simplicity of operation --- ### Scaleway VPS - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mahir H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Industrial Automation - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. From ordering to vps provisioning, everything is automized. Their customer service is also nice and friendly. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros A all-in-one solution for server admins: high-quality vps with the lowest possible price, flexible IPs, free internal networking, S3 compatible object storage - combination of these can ease the development process significantly. ON top of these, I like their dedicated and free firewall where you can define custom rules based on port ranges and also IP ranges. #### Cons Previously, the dev-s server was very cheap. Now, due to increased R&D cost of Scaleway, this price became almost double which is understandable. But it would be nice if Scaleway provides a cheaper solution like it has before, maybe with a lower server configuration i.e. 1GB RAM or 512M RAM and 1 processor etc. I also want to see live server load for the latest 7-10 days minimum without installing any third-party software. #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway Better vps config with less price. --- ### One of the best provider I ever used - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Guillaume G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. A lot of improvements the last few years, reasonable prices, and top notch technology. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Everything is self-service, you can easily predict your bills, service is stable and customer support, on Slack, is awesome ! #### Cons - Missing managed MongoDB hosting- That's it. #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway OVH has grown too fast, with the same staff, so ... A lot of downtimes, poor quality. --- ### It is possible to grow with low costs - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Carlos Alberto G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. In my case I use scaleway to instantiate applications and hostings. By having low costs, I have been able to grow without having to invest large amounts of money, and feeling supported as the service has always been excellent. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I have used various VPS services and scaleway has fair instances that allow small businesses to grow. The console is excellent, it allows the customization of what is just and necessary. It has helped me to be able to increase my sales without having an excessive cost. #### Cons I think it would be nice to have databases at a slightly lower cost, for general use. #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway Costs, Service #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway Costs --- ### Sans contest, le meilleur cloud européen - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Julien L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Security and Investigations - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Simplicité et clarté dans l'utilisation de la console. Mises à jour et ajout de fonctionnalités régulières #### Cons La changement de l'offre baremetal est décevante en terme de prix, il est maintenant nécessaire de débourser (à mon sens) une somme importante pour disposer d'un serveur physique? #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway Tarifs et hébergé en France #### Reasons for switching to Scaleway Je voulais avoir la garantie d'être hébergé en France Recherche de tarfis compétitifs --- ### My personal review and comment - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Jordan P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. With your server I can offer a cheap backup for my clients #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Availability, speed of implementation and diversity of offers #### Cons When a server is broken, the support tends to imperatively want to replace it without the possibility of recovering the data. #### Reasons for choosing Scaleway I was very interested by the Managed Database on Scaleway Elements to relieve my workload but the price are too expensive on this offer, Dedibox are more interesting. Not the same product, I kown, but when you know how to manage a Database, this is not financially interesting. --- ### Lost all my data - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
