Reddit · r/VPS · yesterday
Two months into an RS 8000 root server, tickets take days and end in unexplained one-line closures, with repeated downtime from the network, so they plan to move away. The provider is inferred from the RS 8000 plan name and the Austria network mention.

Moved hosting from Azure web apps to Linux on Hetzner with Cloudflare edge caching and cut the monthly cost dramatically.

Finds Contabo good value and flexible for both site and email hosting.
Reddit · r/VPS · 3 days ago
Runs KVM 2 plans and advises paying monthly, since one plan kept its old price while another jumped sharply on the next bill. Cancelling anytime is a plus for them.
Reddit · r/VPS · 3 days ago
Finds Contabo low quality, with roughly 30 percent CPU steal that forces buying more vCPUs than needed.
Reddit · r/VPS · 3 days ago
Uses RackNerd and checked their plan: about a year for a modest price with 2 cores, 3.5GB RAM, a 65GB drive and plenty of bandwidth, seen as roughly on par in price with a pricier Hostinger plan.

Reddit · r/webhosting · 5 days ago
Hosts with both Linode and Hetzner. Finds Hetzner cloud locations often full, so adding new servers can take months, and notes Hetzner has begun raising prices.
HostingRecs · Pieter · 10 days ago
Been on a Cloud VPS 20 with them since early 2024. It hosts my Nextcloud, a Gitea instance, Uptime Kuma and a few Docker side projects. 12 GB of RAM for what they charge is still hard to beat anywhere I've looked. Know what you're buying though. The vCPUs are shared and you can see steal time in htop during European working hours, so anything CPU heavy runs noticeably slower than on my Hetzner box. Disk is fast, no complaints there. Uptime has been decent for me. Two unplanned outages so far, one about 40 minutes, plus a maintenance reboot announced with very little notice. Support tickets get answered but slowly and the first reply is usually a template, so I don't count on them for anything. The panel looks old but does what I need: reinstall, snapshots, rescue mode. I keep restic backups off the server anyway. For self hosting by someone who can manage Linux it's great value. I wouldn't put a client's shop on it.
Reddit · r/VPS · 10 days ago
Running multiple VPS instances for production web apps and AI agents with zero downtime and fast customer support responses.
Reddit · r/VPS · 10 days ago
Already runs a VPS with netcup and is happy with it. Ordering a second one took just under 48 hours to provision with no status note, which they accept, and they praise the service and use the servers for AI testing and non-production work.
HostingRecs · 10 days ago
KVM 2 for about 8 months, running n8n, a Postgres container and a couple of small APIs in Docker. 8 GB RAM at that price is hard to beat, and the panel makes snapshots, OS reinstalls and firewall rules easy. I barely touch it beyond SSH. Then I ran a heavy scraping job overnight and the server got throttled hard, everything crawled until the next day. Support pointed me to their CPU usage limits. Uptime otherwise has been fine. Check the renewal price before you pay. The intro rate only covers the prepaid term, after that it's a lot more.
