蘑菇云 is positioned as a platform for cloud servers, bare metal, and rental services, comparable to an IaaS cloud host / physical server provider. The official site lists North China BGP and Hong Kong BGP cloud servers, as well as server rooms in Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Taiwan, the Philippines, Japan, and other locations.

## Why choose the cloud platform

- **Free filing at 0 yuan**: provides users with free filing services; the filing process is worry-free, with a 1-on-1 filing handling mechanism, and a filing number can be obtained as fast as 1 working day.

- **Elasticity**: cloud servers can be created in one minute to respond to business needs; configurations can be adjusted at any time, with multiple billing models available.

- **5-day no-reason refund**: the cloud platform promises unconditional refunds within 5 days after users purchase cloud servers.

- **7×24 multi-channel service support**: a professional after-sales engineer team provides 7×24×365 technical service to ensure worry-free product use and stable business operation.

- **VIP multi-to-1 service**: for VIP customers, the platform arranges a multi-person technical team through WeChat groups, QQ discussion groups, phone calls, and other forms.

## Example configurations

The official site’s lowest cloud server example is **1 core CPU, 1 GB memory, 20 GB SSD, 1 Mbps bandwidth, and 1 IP**. Physical server examples include SSD storage, fixed bandwidth, and one IP, with pricing and consultation options shown by server room.

This is not an open-source self-hosted project; deployment difficulty depends on the purchased specification and service scope. Users in China should pay attention to the filing process, WeChat group / QQ / phone support, and confirm WeChat Pay or domestic service-provider integration details with customer service.
