Load Balancer · $64/mo
Kamatera's Load Balancer Large at $64/mo is significantly overpriced compared to dedicated load-balancing alternatives. OVHcloud Load Balancer S ($6.94/mo) and Hetzner LB11 ($7.49/mo) offer comparable or superior specs at roughly 10% of the cost, with transparent pricing and published SLAs.
Delivers 200 Mbps throughput, 250 conn/s, 10,000 req/s, and 200GB transfer for $6.94/mo with 99.99% SLA and no undisclosed per-server surcharges.
Caveat: IPv4 addresses billed separately; Windows licensing adds per-vCore surcharge; APAC outbound traffic loses free-egress status after mid-2026.
Entry-level load balancer supporting 25 services, 10,000 connections, and TLS termination at $7.49/mo with transparent pricing and 99.9% SLA.
Caveat: Traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB EU pool (much smaller in USA/Singapore); prices increased 36-39% in April 2026; VAT excluded from listed price.
Regional load balancer at $10/mo with 100% network uptime SLA and no per-server licensing traps.
Caveat: Bandwidth overage rates vary by data center location; Windows licensing not included in base price.
Managed load balancer with 99.99% SLA at $8.64/mo for additional rules, suggesting a competitive base tier for core load-balancing.
Caveat: Pricing structure is rule-based and may require calculator to estimate total cost; renewal pricing after promo period is 2-6x higher on some plans.
