History
Kamatera's parent company, The OMC Group, was founded in 1995[6] by brothers Assaf and Yohai Azulai.[7] The OMC Group owns several subsidiaries operating in the fields of cloud computing and software development, including ReutOne, which provides CRM software, Tyco, a website development company, and several cloud infrastructure companies including ClubVPS, GNS Cloud Solutions, VPSServer.com, CaaB-Cloud as a Business, JetServer, and Kamatera.[8][9] In 2023, Kamatera acquired VPSServer.com, a Netherlands-based cloud hosting provider that had been operating for over six years. VPSServer.com operated out of 16 data centers in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.[10] As of 2024, Kamatera operates out of data centers in 24 locations across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.[11][12]
Reviews
TechRadar noted that Kamatera offers flexible, affordable cloud VPS hosting with a global data center network, but it's best for experienced users[13] ZDNET reviewed Kamatera as a highly scalable VPS hosting provider, however backups cost extra.[14] A review by Website Planet noted its loading speeds as being "twice as fast in some instances" compared to Microsoft Azure.[15] Cybernews highlighted that while the platform is user-friendly, deploying a server requires a degree of technical expertise.[11] Techradar rated Kamatera the best IaaS provider for enterprise companies, citing the wide range of services and global data center distribution.[16] A review by Forbes described Kamatera as a good option for SMBs needing access to enterprise-level resources without the enterprise pricing.[17]
