What to look for in colocation and data-centre providers
The right provider depends on your workload, where your users are and what your team can run, not only on its place in this list. Before you shortlist, check:
Power per rack, cooling and the redundancy design of the building
Carriers and cloud on-ramps available in the facility
Contract length, set-up and cross-connect fees
Remote hands and access rules
Certifications the facility holds, checked on the provider’s own pages
How to use this ranking
Use it to build a shortlist. Each profile lists the hosting types a provider sells, the countries it runs servers in and its prices as printed on its own site, with the date we read them. Test the two or three that fit before you move anything that matters.

The order is earned on evidence: client reviews, vetting, awards and the facts a business states on its own website, which we read and date. Nobody can pay to move up. Add reviews or verified facts to your free profile to move up at the next edition; there are two ways to stand out now, and each one says what it is.
How is this ranking of colocation and data-centre providers worked out?
A position here is earned, never bought. It is worked out from what each listing documents and what has been verified about it: a complete, accurate profile, and the checks a provider has passed. Client reviews count where they exist, but they are still rare across this catalogue, so today the order comes mainly from documentation and verification. A top position means best-documented, not best for your workload.
Can a provider pay to move up?
No. Sponsored and Featured places are labelled and shown apart from the ranked list, and they never change a provider’s position in it. How rankings work
