Pros & Cons

CloudGPU

Advantages

Considerations

SwissGPU

Advantages

Dedicated bare-metal GPU and compute resources for each client, with no virtualization layer.
Secure SSH access, with all data and the OS permanently wiped at the end of a rental.
Local-like experience with ultra-low latency remote desktops.
Published hourly rates for every GPU configuration, with per-minute billing and no storage or network fees.

Considerations

Consumer and workstation GPUs only — no datacenter accelerators such as H100 or B200 for large-scale training.
Single location: all capacity is in Switzerland, which adds latency for users outside Europe.
Electricity is metered and billed on top of the hourly rate, so the listed rate is not the full cost.

Per-minute on-demand billing

Dedicated physical servers billed per minute, with billing stopping when the server is powered off and no additional storage or network charges.

Prepaid credits

Metered electricity

Power consumption is billed separately per kWh on top of the hourly server rate, and a small fee applies when reinstalling the operating system.

Custom configurations and long-term commitments

Negotiated directly with the provider rather than published as self-service rates.
