Contabo is renowned worldwide for offering the absolute best price-to-performance ratio in the VPS and dedicated server market. Operating out of highly optimized data centers in Germany, the US, and Asia, they provide massive RAM and CPU allocations at prices that drastically undercut major cloud providers. While they do not offer managed services or fancy serverless APIs, for developers and businesses that simply need raw, unmanaged Linux compute power for heavy databases, rendering, or hosting nodes, Contabo is unbeatable.

Pros & Cons

  • Global data center expansion
  • Straightforward, flat-rate monthly billing
