The good news is that there will be no pricing increases for our cloud locations in Europe! We are currently forced to pass on pricing increases from our colocation partner in the USA to our customers. This is the actual rationale behind the price adjustment. Additionally, we made the decision to create a fundamentally more equitable traffic pricing system when we launched our location in Singapore. The majority of our customers profit from a sliding scale of traffic expenses, according to our investigation of their traffic usage. In order to play with open cards, it was crucial that we make all of this known before launching the dollar as a payment option. Taking a step back, though, despite the price adjustment in the USA, we are playing in the top league in terms of price performance and will make every effort to continue doing so in the future. -Lea
Since Hetzner has no own data Center locations in us and probably renting something, it’s totally justified I guess. US wages and therefore costs of operations are much more pricey. Also Hetzner is way cheaper as other public clouds and around for 30 years so they won’t do a rug pull So totally justified imo
A huge percentage increase in price and decrease in traffic - but stepping back for a second, if you legitimately need 20TB a month, then €23.49 / $24.85 is nothing. If it's not worth that to you, then you are doing probably doing something illegal.
Whilst I do agree, the change is massive and they also increased prices on top of it! As I see it, either the prices should have stayed the same or even gotten lower.
@@aLfRemArShMeLlOw Well youre the one benefitting so thats a valid point but if youre being honest looking at how economy is now, this take is selfish to a degree
I don't know how this would be a surprise for anyone. Hetzner is a german company, the us had plans for 25% tarifs on imports from europe, anyone that did not expect a price increase on every single imported good from europe should seriously start making plans to account for the future price increases
makes sense and seems fair 20tb seems high for no direct ownership in US. and that bandwidth should be considering more professional pricing ranges not chasing the cheapest VPS they can find at that scale.
Great analysis, thank you! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
I dont know if Hetzner has its own datacenter in the US but i think there do, there use a Custom Server and Mainboard design and for the US locations that is affected by traffis. When you have 1 Poweruser for every 20+ "normal" customers you can cross cover the cost of the Poweruser in terms of bandwith, and there have more poweruses then expected in the US and when i go over 800GB on traffic on any server i look where that traffic is generated and if i need to shift data to a CDN. When i have more then 1TB of changing data a month i can pay for the overcharge and some of the changes will possible be applyed to other datacenters when required.
What's the chance that a competitor tries to capitalise on the change by taking Hetzners position and making a similarly priced VPS product? Would be free publicity/marketing.
I’d argue zero. Hetzner is still pretty affordable in the grand scheme of things. Even after kneecapping their bandwidth alloweances, their pricing is still very reasonable compared to other vendors (AWS). That their prices are not necessarily greed driven is implied by the fact that EU locations seem to be not affected by this change (yet?)
actually i am currently building a selfhosted cloud service platform for students/devs, its currently in my homelab but if it works ill try to go little bit big

Thank you Lea!
I am going to pin this comment so others see. I did a deep, full analysis on my stream and concluded that Hetzner is still the best!

It's not only hetzner, many other datacenters and hosting providers raise the prices

This increase has nothing to do with that. There's no tariffs yet.
What was that Coolify UI? Old or new? I dont recognize the look.

It’s just another effect of the market adjusting. It’s still a much better price than a lot of cloud providers
Given the fact they don't seem to change their EU (GER/FIN) pricing and bandwith, so this might be related to the DCs they are in and/or the tariffs.

Thanks for the recap!
How does Hetzner compare to a digital ocean droplet (VM)?
What about Anthropics Claude new MCP, where, using Cursor, you can create your own server?
Grimm the first half a minute I thought, "Inflation".
What a $5 used to buy is unfortunately no longer the same ☹️

Yeah Hetzner is colocating their servers in the US. Here in Europe they do have their own datacenters as well as their own backbone infrastructure

Not really worth complaining about it tbh, if you need 20tb of traffic, then pay more
OVH Cloud for the win!
I should tell my boss to open up a VPS service in our data center
actually i am currently building a selfhosted cloud service platform for students/devs, its currently in my homelab but if it works ill try to go little bit big
I've been looking into OVH, not sure about it yet though
great video from the melk man
We self host, no need to deal with crazy stuff like this
Our company uses hostinger. They have their own data center and pricing is cheap too.
Thanks for mentioning that. I use hetzner but having other options is always a good thing.
Upon uploading your passport?? 😂😂😂
They had huge issues with abuse, uploading the passport sucks, but is probably the best way to avoid this abuse very efficiently
Step 1 -- Build an app that needs between 1TB and 20TB per month.
...
Step 2 -- 🤷♂️
I didn't know what to comment, so Contabo maybe?
i have unlimited business vps at low price
Lil bro 💀💀
Probably, contabo honestly
Run geekbench on a contabo 4cores 6gb ram instance vs Hetzner 3cores instance.
Contabo is not what it seems.
@@ktappdevI’ve been with Contabo for years and their performance can be hit & miss.
Uptime is awful in contabo
@@ktappdev contabo's overselling is crazy
20tb of traffic is nothing ...
Thank Biden for this

Get a used NUC, forward port 80 and 443 to it. Congratulations, you have a server.
