Netcup... excuse me ? Netcup quick response : offer cloud pricing with 6 month prepaid per instance. Lol.

What this has as an immediate disadvantage to NetCup is the downtime for resizing. NetCup has snapshots and restoration down to 3 clicks, but I'll be damned if I'll pay for X months on a transitional

@Hetzner_OL - I've browsed through the server bidding pages since 2016, and had a few short-term dedis. With this new system, you very may pull my transitional services and get me to leave NetCup.. k

I think this is the first time I've seen @Falzo do anything but fellate NetCup. NC's "hourly" billing is complete horseshit, and their billing overall is awful.

Who do you think the competition is? I.e. what other company comes within 50% of this Hetzner product and has hourly billing? Netcup is the first I've seen and it looks like a quick response to Hetz

offering as far as I am concerned. Hopefully netcup may see fit to re-evaluate that detail (or not, what do I know....)

Also about AntiDDOS, Netcup does include 5Gbit, which is a joke these days, Hetzner did not mentioned how much, but they got over 2Tbit network capacity, so I would guess something with at least 100Gb

My storage server and VPS both went down for about 30min. I received an email from netcup a few hours before downtime.

Depends on ones point of view. I guess netcup is less ready for risks and more interested in people who are ready to make a commitment. And frankly, at those prices I don't care.

Applies only to comparable products. Netcup has 40 TB traffic Hetzner 20TB. They might just say it's not compareable.

Well, I'm pleased to see the movements in the market (netcup) but we have anyway to thank @Hetzner_OL both for their new offers and for pushing the competition.

Dass netcup den besten Preis weltweit für vergleichbare Produkte anbietet, wird sogar in der Form einer Preisgarantie garantiert. Vergleichbare Angebote unterbietet netcup um 10%, wenn dieses vor Absc

My psychological reading is that netcup didn't really want to offer hourly billing but felt compelled because of Hetzner. They haven't thought this part through, clearly.

Netcup always had nice specs and I'm sure you know that's what Ive always praised them for however their approach to hourly billing and their "You dont know what hourly billing is" a

I'll shamelessly link to my side-by-side comparison between Hetzner and netcup:
