I’m personally partial to Sauce Labs. For me, the recorded screencasts of your tests is really the key feature. Essentially you just point your existing tests at a sauce server instead of your localhost and you’re good to go. One slight drawback is that they don’t have Mac instances available for test. They offer a free trial to get you started.
The major thing sauce doesn’t handle well is load/performance testing. For that, look at BrowserMob. Essentially, you’re driving load tests with real browsers using selenium scripts.
I’ve heard good things about PushToTest but never used them.
One thing to note is that these are all Selenium 1.x providers. Selenium 2 doesn’t have a grid yet, but that should be coming soon.
