Hello, I would like to buy 3 of AX162 with the new prices.
No problem at all! Please message @emgh our Expenzner expert who can help you out
Man, I was prepared to defend this like, "Yeah, unfortunately the price of everything is increasing. Tough tits, an extra dollar or two a month can be expected when they're probably already operating on thin margins as is."
... but then I saw how big the increase is. Pretty wild.
But hey, in this market there is always a competitor doing it for less. A company that size, I'm sure they weighed options and have some sort of goal in mind that after many meetings decided could only be achieved by losing a bunch of customers at the cost of 2-3Xing their price. Less customers paying more is always better than many customers paying less, but kind of hard to start off as "cheap, for everyone" then flip to, "JK, we're expensive now"
hetzner is a shitty AWS alternative at this point
example of a product that went up almost 500%?
LMFAO
just to be fair that pic is excl and then incl vat (still horrible ofc)
Are you one of those who enjoy paying those increased prices? All is good?
OK we have unusual flood of orders from yesterday without us posting new offers !
So I was looking for the reason and I think i found it
very smart comment thanks for sharing your intelligence with us today please do let me know if you have any other opinions going forward
I get what you're saying but this is not the case for either US location now.
Thanks you are appreciated much. Very good and productive person. Glad to interact
Yeah, I didn't notice cost optimized is Europe only.
You are mixing things up. You got the wrong server and price. The ones you mean are under Limited Offerings.
The ones you mentioned are new servers. They already had a higher price.

Well looks like right time to post another thread with leaseweb vps offers
EX63 / EX63-1 / EX63-1-LTD and so on have the same specs, but only the expensive AX42-1 / EX63-1 / AX102-1 are available to buy right now. On Sunday evening you could buy EX63 at 77 Euro / month, and on Monday your only option was EX63-1 at 237 Euro / month. It's clearly the same hardware stock, so let's not pretend that there's any substantial change to the hardware to match the price increase.
Interesting is that a EPYC 4585PX (9950X3D) at DataPacket isn’t much more expensive than a 7950X3D at Hetzner with similar specs, also no setup fee and support, network & ddos protection that can’t even be compared
Sure it’s not 1:1 in price, but you get the enterprise version of the newer gen CPU. I’d say you get way more bang for your buck at DataPacket than at Hetzner for this spec (depending on if DataPacket adds VAT?)
Of course OVH is the reasonable alternative, just saying, price-wise they’ve entered DataPacket territory. Let’s see if clients agree that they provide DataPacket level service

Yeah, and Hetzner shows €567.50 (+ €280 setup) with Swedish VAT (not sure if DataPacket adds this later or if they just don’t, hence why I said depending on VAT situation at DataPacket)
As said, the real comparison is OVH
9950X at OVH: €149.99
7950X3D at Hetzner: €454
Same 128GB RAM, Hetzner double the disk
So about 1:1 in specs given the CPU at OVH and the disk at Hetzner, yet 150 vs 454
I’d argue Hetzner isn’t even remotely cheap anymore
