Paperspace

Excellent cloud gaming platform

Pros:

Low latency, easy to connect with, you have the possibility to auto-shutdown the server when you forgot to turn it off, you have the chance to take snapshots of your server, you can add a public IP address to your server and add virtual networks, if you have a problem they respond fast and clear. You can secure your account with 2fa.

Cons:

The sound is not 100% accurate, you notice latency in the sound, not in the image! If you play FPS games it's not the ideal solution for you.

Paperspace was the missing piece in the ML world.

Comments: In general, Paperspace is the perfect platform, both in terms of convenience but also, for their amazing support centre and communication with users. In the last months, each time I had some technical issue or encountered some bugs, I sent them an email via their handy contact form, and every time, I had a response in almost zero-time. For a growing platform like this, support team is of paramount importance and they perfectly know it!
Whether you are a student or professional, just give Paperspace a try.

Pros:

As data scientist myself, I need a solid, affordable platform to conduct my experiments, without any worries about uncertain runtime duration or volatile storage. The lineup offered by Paperspace is just a perfect fit, both in terms of prices and compute capabilities. I'm personally subscribed to the Pro $8 plan, which includes a free RTX A4000 GPU, can you believe it? I still can't but yeah, I hope they'll keep going in this direction. More in details, the free runtimes (included in your plan) last 6 hours and the intuitive interface has a dedicated section where you can see, any time, how much time is left. No hidden stuff like somebody else in the same business does! The machines have at most 30GB of RAM, which comes really handy if you load your datasets in-memory to speed up training like I generally do!

Cons:

About the shared storage, no words are needed, but I personally think that every plan deserves +5GB w.r.t. the current specifications. (just an opinion, maybe I am biased because I mostly work in Computer Vision)

From Great to ZERO

Comments: STAY AWAY, used them for over 10 years. Back then service an support was great.

Pros:

I used them for over 10 years. They used to be great!

Cons:

Support dropped to zero. They fact their support page does not have a phone number is the biggest clue they are not interested in supporting their clients. One of my machines went down, could not get a response to my ticket. Had to move to another service.

My online windows PC, access through any web browser

Comments: Very positive experience with Paperspace. Support ticket got handled very quickly.

Pros:

Keeps all of my work related programs, settings and everything all in one place with backups. I can comfortably travel and access my desktop environment from anywhere in the world. Everything is in place just where I left off so I never have to worry about it. Use different computers anytime, and still have everything ready. It is very affordable, choose hourly rate. Its pretty simple and easy.

Cons:

Where ever you might be traveling, if your internet connection is not great where you are, it can seem a little sluggish using an online virtual environment. But nothing you can't plan ahead for, and its been pretty rare for me.

Paperspace has been a lifesaver

Comments: Paperspace has been a lifesaver for my work. I often have to train multiple machine learning algorithms, and if the supercomputer my company uses goes down, I know I can count on Paperspace to provide an easy-to-use and reliable service to keep my work going.

Pros:

Free virtualized machines with GPU access allow both casual users and professionals to quickly and easily perform computationally-heavy tasks without paying premium prices.

Cons:

Improvements are needed to provide a more streamlined process to load and activate Conda environments in JupyterLab.
