When IONOS makes sense

IONOS makes sense if you need the best price-to-resource ratio with ISO 27001 certified data centers, DDoS protection, and double the specs of competitors at similar prices. Good for raw compute needs.

When KiloClaw is the better choice

IONOS doesn't even have a 1-click template — you're building from scratch. KiloClaw at $9/mo removes all of that. Published security audit. 500+ models. For raw compute, IONOS is fine; for a running agent, KiloClaw is the answer.
