How we count
Each Linode plan is matched to plans from other providers with at least the same RAM and vCPU, preferring the same kind of vCPU and a country Linode also serves. Only plans you can order today, with prices read in the last three days, are suggested.
Closest is the plan nearest in RAM, vCPU and disk, with a higher price counted against it, since you are leaving for a better price, not a bigger box. Cheapest is the lowest price with at least the same RAM and vCPU, shown when it is a different plan.
The widest gap today is Linode 90GB at $240 a month, against $65.69 elsewhere.
The providers that come up most as the closest match are Vultr (8), Binary Lane (5), Cherry Servers (1).
Every price is the standard monthly rate with a disk included, before VAT.
Frequently asked
- What is the cheapest alternative to Linode?
- For Linode's cheapest plan with a disk included, Nanode 1GB at $5/mo, the closest match is Vultr Cloud Compute 1C · 1 GB at $5/mo, and the cheapest plan with at least the same RAM and vCPU is Scaleway STARDUST1-S at $0.49/mo. Prices exclude VAT.
- How are the matches chosen?
- A match needs at least the plan's RAM and vCPU. Among those, it prefers the same kind of vCPU (shared or dedicated) and a datacenter in a country the Linode plan runs in, then picks the plan nearest in RAM, vCPU and disk, counting a higher price against it. Sold-out plans and prices more than three days old are never suggested, and plans without a disk included are left out on both sides.
