Livechat is lacking, servers are good but a lot of waiting time The computation power is there, and is good, your server wont crash and it will work well, however there's a bit of shortage since a lot of times you cant use your own server because the gpu is being used by another user, and while you wait for it to be avayable you are still getting billed for the storage. At start, I had a terrible experience where some misleading text would lead to some unexpected payments, but finally the support team realised the mistake and refunded the full amount, so I'm OK with that. Is vast.ai worth it? If you don't mind waiting for your turn while paying storage and also can get thru the misleading text, servers arent bad...

Vast is amazing Vast is amazing. I have used many GPU rental platforms and vast is my favorite.

You get what you pay for... The service is cheap but the on-demand instance randomly disconnected me after a few days. Luckily I could reconnect before anyone else jumped on, otherwise it would be a total loss - all data gone. As expected customer service is nonexistent - "we'll be with you in just a minute" = infinite hold

Cheap and usable Cheap and usable, can't ask for more. Only downside is expensive data transfer charges. Otherwise fine.

If you use verified machines then it's an amazing and cheap service Non verified machines may be bad, offering bad connections and may be unavailable once rebooted, hence the many bad reviews. For this reason, I suggest you to only stick with verified datacenters. I rented an A4000 GPU for many hours and I've never had any problems with internet speed or availability. The price is very convenient at about 0.16$/h. Nothing to complain about, for me it was essential to train some DL models at a small price. Very recommended.
