VPS cheap vs. reliable - where's the line?

[tomamber51]

I keep going back and forth between budget VPS providers and pricier ones. hostpro.com sits somewhere in the middle for me - is it actually reliable, or am I paying for marketing? What matters most to me is daily backups and DDoS protection, not raw specs.

Yeah, a lot of cheap machines look good in terms of specs, but I'm afraid it's just a marketing gimmick.
Daily backups and DDoS protection are really important to me too.
Since I'm not very technical, I can only learn from everyone's experience here.

Instead of paying high fixed monthly fees, I rent high-performance servers by the hour through voyar.net.

It easily meets all my needs in terms of both performance and system resources, and since I only pay for the time I use it, it's quite affordable. Establishing this price/performance balance has been a much more logical solution for me.

The real test of a VPS provider comes after a failed update or an unexpected attack. From my own use of hostpro.com, daily backups of all services make it possible to restore data after damage, failed updates, or hacking. Their support team is qualified and works around the clock, assisting with any question free of charge. Performance has been fast and stable for my needs.
