Expert Analysis of Hetzner

Expert Take

Hetzner works well when you need high-performance virtual or dedicated servers with high bandwidth requirements on a budget. The friction starts when you rely on their Storage Boxes, which users report have suffered multi-hour or multi-day outages, or if you trigger their strict fraud detection system which can lead to sudden account termination and data destruction. Before buying, compare vs DigitalOcean, which offers a broader suite of managed services like managed databases and Kubernetes.
