A score out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews, so a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product many people like.

Moved Next.js production apps to Hetzner two years ago after platform outages elsewhere and reports solid uptime and performance for the price.

Nearly a year in and really satisfied with performance and pricing; support has been responsive and reliability solid.

Runs four Next.js apps on Hetzner with Dokploy and after a year has had very few issues, all fixed quickly, though it needs more initial setup and some Linux knowledge.

Chose Hetzner Cloud for performance over DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode and IONOS and has appreciated it more over 4-5 years with no payment problems.

After 10-plus years at OVH, two years at Hetzner with no trouble and the same cost and performance year to year.

Ran a Next.js app on a Hetzner VPS for a long time with a nightly recycle for memory leaks, and says it runs definitely faster than on Vercel.

Years on AWS and Hetzner with comparable reliability and only a few hardware failures, apart from Hetzner Object Storage.

Never had issues running game servers on Cloud or Robot and later moved their company from AWS to Hetzner for better margins and performance.

After many providers and 15-plus years at Hetzner, it is by far the best for network, hardware and VM stability.

Switching from Azure to Hetzner gave the same service at an eighth of the price, with critical services running great for two years.

Uses Hetzner for personal projects, has had no uptime issues and says it is cheaper than anything else they can find.

Runs everything else on Hetzner: cheap, reliable, fast, low latency to their audience and unbeatable networking allowances.

A Danish SaaS moved off AWS to Hetzner Cloud VPS plus OVH with a 90 percent cost cut, ISO 27001 kept and no outages on any node so far.

Ten years, first personal then for over 10 clients, quite happy though virtual server availability could improve.

Runs a customer shop's primary and replica MySQL on Hetzner CCX13 cloud VMs; maintenance takes about an hour a year.

Almost five years on Hetzner Cloud for critical infrastructure; only two short vSwitch issues.

A user running 20 WordPress sites on a small Hetzner Cloud server has had zero downtime in a year and finds support great.

After trying many providers settled on Hetzner for production; nothing comes close even after two price rises this year.
