Pros & Cons

Nebius

Advantages

Transparent published hourly GPU pricing across extensive NVIDIA lineup with commitment discounts available
Latest Blackwell GB300/GB200 and HGX B300/B200/H200/H100 options for AI training
Self-service console with preemptible pricing options for cost optimization
Vertical integration aimed at predictable pricing and performance with flexible payment methods

Considerations

Regional availability is not fully enumerated on public pages
Premium Blackwell GB300/GB200 models and large HGX capacity require sales engagement
Pricing for ancillary services (storage/network) is less visible than GPU rates

Spheron

Advantages

One account and dashboard spans several GPU clouds, avoiding per-provider lock-in
Per-minute billing past a short minimum runtime, with no contract or long-term commitment
Wide NVIDIA range from RTX 4090 through B300 plus the AMD MI300X, with GB200, GB300 and R100 available to reserve
Spot instances run the same hardware at up to 50% off dedicated rates

Considerations

Capacity is supplied by third-party data centers, so hardware, regions and operational experience vary by partner
Spot instances are interruptible and can be reclaimed when demand returns
Large clusters, custom configurations and reserved capacity go through sales rather than self-service
