Vultr offers Miami and Tampa cloud locations with a large catalog. LayerOne is a focused alternative: one Tampa site, owned hardware, and pricing that does not require a calculator.

When LayerOne fits

• You want predictable plan tiers ($3 / $5 / $15 / $45) with included DDoS
• You prefer hourly billing from prepaid credit without surprise overages
• You value direct support from the infrastructure team
• Your users are in Florida, the Caribbean, or the Southeast US

When a big cloud might win

Multi-region footprints, bare-metal GPU fleets, or dozens of global POPs are outside our scope. We optimize for straightforward KVM VPS in Tampa.

Migration tips

Snapshot your disk on the old provider, deploy a matching or larger LayerOne plan from pricing, and rsync data over SSH. Test latency with the looking glass before cutting DNS.

Feature parity checklist

Dedicated IPv4, IPv6, full root access, hourly credit billing, optional snapshots, and floating IPs where offered. No bait-and-switch intro pricing — the website rate is the rate.

Try Tampa

Compare plans on pricing, check routes with the looking glass, then learn about Tampa hosting or deploy from the client portal.
