Why our customers love us

Brightspo

“Onboarding with UpCloud was seamless. […] During our PoC time, we saw significant improvements in good-to-go times for our services while the proposed private cloud plan decreased costs by around 30%.” – Thiseas Meggos, Director of Infrastructure, Hack The Box

 

“Before working with UpCloud, we were using an American provider, however, that was before our platform handled large amounts of sensitive customer data. Once we began storing more sensitive information, we made the switch to European servers owned by a European company” – Peter Weibull, CTO, Hailey

Xensam Logo

“Evaluation of different providers, incorporating assessments of cost-effectiveness, compliance with GDPR, and performance benchmarks within the EU sector concluded that UpCloud excelled in all these areas.” – Gustav Fösker, Co-founder and CTO, Xensam.
