Reviewer scorecard
“4x the compute per dollar compared to AWS. European data centers for GDPR compliance. The best value in cloud computing.”
“Docker builds that take 10 minutes in CI complete in 30 seconds on Depot. The speed improvement is dramatic.”
“Unbeatable pricing if you can manage your own infrastructure. Not for teams that need managed services.”
“If Docker builds are your CI bottleneck, Depot eliminates it. Drop-in replacement with massive time savings.”
“As cloud bills become a board-level concern, Hetzner's value proposition becomes more compelling every quarter.”
“Remote build infrastructure will become standard. Local or CI builds on underpowered machines make no sense.”
