Fair analysis

## Strengths on both sides





### Where ServPrivacy wins




- No-KYC signup vs. Scaleway's mandatory government photo-ID verification to unlock resource quotas

- Monero/crypto billing vs. Scaleway's card and SEPA-only payments with zero crypto option

- Offshore DMCA-ignored jurisdiction vs. Scaleway's French LCEN + EU DSA automatic takedown obligations






### Where Scaleway is strong




- Mature EU-sovereign infrastructure since 1999 — three regions (Paris, Amsterdam, Warsaw), unmetered egress on all instances, genuine bare-metal Dedibox and Elastic Metal catalogue

- Exceptionally cheap entry tier: Stardust1-S at €1.80/mo (or €0.36/mo IPv6-only) gives a real public-cloud VM at near-VPS-panel prices, ideal for dev and low-traffic workloads

- Full Terraform/Pulumi/Ansible/scw-CLI ecosystem, first-class GDPR/DSA compliance posture, and Arbor-backed anti-DDoS at no extra cost on Dedibox










## Our honest verdict



Scaleway impresses on infrastructure breadth and EU pricing — the Stardust1-S is genuinely the cheapest proper cloud VM in Europe, Dedibox bare-metal starts under €14/mo, and the Paris/Amsterdam/Warsaw footprint covers most EU latency needs. For a legitimate developer or startup, the package is hard to beat. For a privacy-oriented buyer, however, Scaleway ticks almost every wrong box: government-ID KYC to access real quotas, credit-card-only billing, SMTP port 25 blocked by default (requires ID + bank docs to unblock), and French/EU jurisdiction that obliges swift action on copyright, DSA trusted-flagger, and law-enforcement takedown requests. Accounts are known to be auto-suspended on abuse heuristics with minimal explanation. The 2021 stolen-SSD customer-data scandal and multiple billing-lock horror stories on Trustpilot underline that operational security practices lag behind the polished console. ServPrivacy's clientele should treat Scaleway as a benchmark for EU price/performance, not as a viable supplier.





## Pick ServPrivacy if



ServPrivacy wins on every axis that matters to privacy buyers: no-KYC signup, crypto payments including Monero, DMCA-ignored offshore jurisdiction, and no automatic DSA takedown compliance — none of which Scaleway can offer under French law.





## Pick Scaleway if



Choose Scaleway if you run a GDPR-compliant EU startup, need the cheapest possible ARM cloud VM, or want a proven bare-metal catalogue with a full API ecosystem — and you are comfortable providing government ID and paying by card.





FAQ

## ServPrivacy vs Scaleway — FAQ





### 01
Which is better, ServPrivacy or Scaleway?



It depends on your priority. ServPrivacy wins on raw operator privacy (token-only auth, no email, no phone, no name, no fiat), 7-jurisdiction footprint and AI-agent purchasing (MCP, OpenAPI, x402-light). Scaleway has its own strengths listed in the comparison table above — pick whichever maps to your actual threat model.





### 02
Is ServPrivacy cheaper than Scaleway?



ServPrivacy VPS starts at $7.50/mo and dedicated at $48.50/mo. Scaleway pricing varies by plan; the comparison table above shows entry tiers and dedicated start price for both providers. Multi-month cycles unlock additional discounts on both sides.





### 03
Can I pay Scaleway with Monero, like ServPrivacy?



ServPrivacy accepts 20 native crypto coins including Monero (XMR), with per-order deposit addresses and any-coin checkout. Whether Scaleway accepts Monero, and on which payment rail, is shown in the feature comparison above. Crypto-only operators should always confirm before ordering.





### 04
How do I migrate from Scaleway to ServPrivacy?



Snapshot or `rsync` your existing server to a new ServPrivacy VPS in your chosen jurisdiction, restore data, reconfigure DNS, then cancel the Scaleway instance and rotate any exposed keys. Our /alternative-to-scaleway page has the full step-by-step. Total migration usually takes 30–90 minutes for a small server.
