Any one tried Hetzner Cloud or Alphavps? I am just stuck between which to chose: Alphavps OVZ 4GB or Hetzner Cx21. I have heard of Hetzners bad support which is a bit worrying cuz I am a bit New but Alphavps has OpenVZ instead of KVM. I want to host some Wordpress sites. Please Help.

Which One would You Prefer? (Please Only Reply if you have Experienced Both)

    Not saying AlphaVPS is bad, but they are not Hetzner, so Hetzner.

    Yes, I believe Hetzner has a great fan base but what i am concerned about is that Does Hetzner Offer Yearly Payment Option like Alphavps, because I want to Contract for a year at least and then I may renew? Because I just want to pay in one go rather than pay every month.

  • @hanzen both are excellent. Depending on your location you may find one or the orher's network works better for your specific needs. I would suggest to try both monthly before commiting to yearly. (And I think Hetzner is monthly only though I may be wrong about.that - check with @Hetzner_OL to be sure).

    (And pinging @AlexBarakov here also just to say hello :))

    Oh yeah that's right for VPS "cloud" service.

    Also you can put in a ticket with their accounting department to prepay some larger amount, so you don't have to bother with payment every month.

    "I want to host some Wordpress sites. Please Help."

    Both offers unmanaged hosting. What kind of support are you looking?
    If you are fairly new to managing servers and if you will lose millions due to some issues on your server then I suggest to get managed hosting. If you can manage your well your own server then both providers are just fine.

    Hetzner - is bigger in terms of company, number of nodes, client base.

    For MY use I will go for Hetzner. If the location is Falkenstein, Nuremberg or Helsinki.

    For your case, I will go with AlphaVPS. If there are issues they will make it right for you.
    Support is just fine, but take note that this is unmanaged hosting and you will need to know servers.

    Depending on your payment method, I believe that it is possible to pre-pay a larger amount. For more information, please contact our accounting team directly. They can give you more information. --Katie
