Netcup launches in Virginia

They finally left EU. :)

Low cost on the East Coast! Just in time for Independence Day and for the first time in netcup’s history, we can announce that our products are now also available outside of Europe!

In addition to our locations in Nuremberg and Vienna, we now also offer our servers in Manassas, Virginia. Now you can rent VPS x86 and root servers on the East Coast of the USA with our proven quality and reliability at our attractive prices.

The new location in Manassas, Virginia, is in one of the largest and most dynamic markets for data center services in the world. Its proximity to Washington D.C. makes this location strategically important for customers who need reliable and fast connections.

Manassas is known for its excellent network connectivity and infrastructure. You benefit from fast and reliable internet connections and a large bandwidth. The region is also a central hub for many major cloud providers, which offers additional benefits in terms of availability and performance.

The location in Manassas means shorter data paths and therefore lower latency times for users on the east coast of the USA. It allows you to be closer to your customers in the US and provide an even better service experience.

Be part of the expansion with netcup and take advantage of our extended reach!

Simply select the Manassas location in the dropdown within the product and start your project in the land of unlimited possibilities.

US launch special – first month free!

Be one of the first to join us in our expansion! We are giving the first 100 orders for the Manassas location of VPS 1000 G11 and VPS 2000 G11 and RS 1000 and RS 2000 the first month for free!

    Just ordered RS 1000. Delivered but the internet connection is not working :D

  • vitobottavitobotta Member

    Wow, Netcup is also expanding in the USA. Interesting. I wonder if they will have the same widely approved contracts in the US 😀

    I suspect that this won't change

    It would be awkward for netcup to change the contract conditions depending on the location (EU vs US) if the products are otherwise the same, and I suspect that they would also receive (understandable) complaints if they did this

    In addition, (as I've said before) netcup's target customers aren't LET users, and especially business customers don't have a problem with contracts (because contracts are everywhere in daily life)

    I'm waiting for support to fix the network. But if that's the IP range, I believe they might have made a typo when configuring the IP address :p

    awesome!

  • coolicecoolice Member

    What is the CPU ? Do they offer ddos protection?
    Can someone post - Yabs ?

  • MrRobMrRob Member

    How can I measure my speed with the netcup network, I would like to know if I will have problems when contracting?
    I want to install windows, I was reading that netcup has the option to install windows, but it is more for the network, if I will have problem with the connection.

    Can someone show me?

    For Windows (RDP) it's pretty high. Me personally, i will only go with <100ms latency.

    No, I think that it's mainly because netcup's target customers are those who understand the notion of a contract

    (Many LET users understand the notion of a contract, but unfortunately, many do not)

    True, but there's still a contract with a requirement to cancel at least 31 days in advance -- one can't just stop paying and hope that this suffices

    While I haven't verified that claim, it really doesn't seem right. What, you call them the day before you want to order a service for 30 days and tell them you will cancel it? Then you order the next day, and this is how you manage to have service for one month and not more? I'm sorry, but if this is correct, I'd say a company with such a rule is running a subtle scam operation.

    I must add that I don't have any issues with contracts and definitely take care of my cancellations. I consider it my responsibility to cancel what I don't need anymore, and on time.

    But in a world where Hetzner has switched to hourly billing even on their dedicated servers, how do you really get anything from Netcup for not more than 30 days if you have to cancel 31 days before?

    Where do you see you must give 30 days notification before cancellation is effective? Presumably you can cancel anytime during the month and make the cancellation effective at the end of the current billing cycle.

    Okay, as a disclaimer, let me say that many things have changed at netcup over the past few years, so what I said may no longer be true

    That said, I believe that it's still true :)

    What I believe is still true is that if one orders a server with a monthly contract, one is effectively obliged to keep the server for at least two months, precisely because -- as you correctly note -- if one needs to cancel at least 31 days in advance, one is effectively obliged to stay for at least two months

    If it's now 30 days as opposed to 31 days, then if one orders a server and cancels on the same day, then one should be able to avoid a second month, but the timing would be tight!

    But the last time that I was able to check this, it was 31 days

    I'd be happy to be proven wrong :)

    Let me quickly add that netcup's non-promotional (x86-)vServers now all have hourly billing, so these servers can be canceled at any time!
