GreenCloud is a well-established VPS provider that has a number of locations worldwide. They just recently celebrated their 9th anniversary last October with a lot of generous VPS deals on LowEndTalk. Several months ago, GreenCloud just launched two types of their new sales, Budget and Premium KVM, which are equivalent to Black Friday deals but available to purchase at any time. And they will be restocked from time to time.
Budget KVM sale
GreenCloud’s budget KVM sale is very affordable starting from $15 per year for a VPS with 2 GB RAM, 1 Intel Xeon E5 CPU, 20 GB RAID-10 SSD, and 2 TB bandwidth at 10 Gbps port in various locations. Usually, their Asia locations: Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan will likely be sold out almost instantly according to the high demand. The bandwidth in the Asia locations is lower than in other locations, but they’re very generous for the price you pay. If paid triennially, there will be some discount too.
You can find their budget KVM sale at https://greencloudvps.com/billing/store/budget-kvm-sale.
Premium KVM sale
GreenCloud’s premium KVM sale is a bit more expensive than the budget one but it’s definitely a massive upgrade starting from $25 per year for a premium VPS with 2 GB RAM, 1 EPYC or Ryzen CPU depending on the plan, 25 GB RAID-10 (for EPYC) or RAID-1 (for Ryzen) NVMe, and 3 TB bandwidth at 10 Gbps port. If paid triennially, you’ll get double bandwidth and either double RAM or CPU depending on the plan too.

Support
Besides their quality services, they’re also known for fast support. Their support team is competent to solve technical issues when you need help via support ticket 24/7. And they treat all customers the same regardless of the services you have whether it be budget or premium. They’re experienced in running a hosting company and know how to make affordable deals sustainable and reliable. You can check GreenCloud’s uptime status in all locations in the last 90 days at https://status.greencloudvps.com.
The yabs result below is from my 2 GB RAM budget KVM plan in San Jose for $40 triennially which is really impressive. If you find this article useful and would like to give GreenCloud a try, please consider using my GreenCloud aff link.
