MivoCloud Russia Moscow Intel Core Hourly Billing VPS Hosting Test and Review
In this review, we are examining the MivoCloud Russia Moscow VPS Hosting service. This server uses an Intel Core Processor (Broadwell, IBRS) featuring 2 CPU cores, 3 GB of RAM, 20 GB of SSD storage, a network speed of 100 Mbps, and a data limit of 3 TB. Also included are 1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6 Address.
Our review will include a variety of tests. The Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark will give us key performance figures. The Global Node Test is for a thorough network assessment, and the Global Ping Test gauges latency or the delay in the server’s response.
The regional accessibility of the server will be tested through the Media Unlock Test. The quality of the connection is assessed with the CloudFlare Internet Test. Finally, web performance will be evaluated using the PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance tools.

Conclusion
The server displayed impressive upload and download speeds across various locations in the Basic Bench test. For instance, it recorded an upload speed of over 1000 Mbps in Paris, FR, and Amsterdam, NL, with a decent download speed. The overall test concluded in about 13 minutes, indicating a solid performance.
In the Yabs Performance Bench, the server presented a consistent read and write speed with different block sizes. The Geekbench 6 Benchmark Test provided a single-core score of 890 and a multi-core score of 1611, showing a balanced performance between single-core and multi-core tasks.
The UnixBench test was conducted twice with a wide range of system benchmarks, showing that the server performs excellently in data handling, process creation, script execution, and system call overhead. It exhibited especially high performance when running two parallel copies of tests with scores significantly higher than baseline values.
The Media Unlock Test showed limited access to several media services. The server unlocked Amazon Prime Video (with RU region identified) and TVBAnywhere+ but failed to unlock many other popular platforms, including Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube Premium.
In conclusion, the MivoCloud VPS hosting service, based in Moscow, Russia, demonstrated strong performance in various benchmark tests and solid speed in local and international contexts. However, the limited media accessibility may be a drawback for those seeking extensive international streaming options. Overall, it’s a reliable choice for demanding tasks and those needing optimal server capabilities — while acknowledging the trade-offs for specific streaming services.
