Custom crawlers, API implementations and lots of automation. Like most search engines, it's not flawless, but it's getting better every day. :)

Yeah, some info seems to be incorrect. Like it shows vmhaus has Windows instances but after signing up I could only find *nix.

The VMHaus offers were actually added by the provider themselves in August 2018, they specifically selected Windows to be available.

On June 2017 they wrote: "Custom ISO - Use our available Windows & FreeBSD or bring your own ISO." (source: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/116203/vmhaus-new-uk-l...)

I've sent them a message to clarify. :)

Just got a reply (within 1 minute!): "I'm afraid this isn't something we offer any more - In order to install windows, you will need to provide your own ISO with VirtIO drivers included."

I've updated our website accordingly. :)
