servinga
Pros
- + Own hardware and network at 9 locations across 8 European countries plus Dallas, deployable at every tier
- + Transparent prepaid pricing with published per-unit upgrade costs and a throttle-not-suspend traffic policy
- + Backup slot with auto-backup, IPv4 + IPv6, KVM root access and 90-second provisioning included as standard
- + €3/month IPv6-only line with optional /64 subnet is strong value for network-centric workloads
Cons
- - Uplinks capped at 100-500 Mbit/s (gigabit is a paid upgrade); no CPU models published
- - Entry plan is thin (1 vCPU/1 GB, Linux only) and Windows effectively starts at €10/month
- - 48-hour money-back window is too short to load-test; support is ticket-based on a self-managed product
- - Less compute per euro than measured leaders like Hetzner Cloud at the 2-4 GB tier
Netcup
Pros
- + Exceptional hardware per euro — 8 vCore / 16 GB at €26.92/month on a 12-month term
- + Five locations on three continents from one catalog: Nuremberg, Vienna, Amsterdam, Manassas, Singapore
- + DDoS protection, IPv4/IPv6, traffic flat rate, snapshots, and hourly billing included as standard
- + German company with own Nuremberg data centers and GDPR-aligned practice
- + 30-day money-back guarantee on root servers; honest, clearly stated availability guarantees
Cons
- - 99.6% VPS availability guarantee is below the 99.9% many enterprises expect
- - Support, community, and deep documentation are German-first with business-hours ticket support
- - Best headline prices require 12- or 24-month terms; monthly terms cost noticeably more
- - Standard VPS line is unmanaged — managed service is a separate product
- - No free tier; identity verification required at signup; contracts auto-renew with strict notice periods
