About Contabo
Affordable hosting
Contabo's core appeal is getting high-spec virtual and bare‑metal servers for a low monthly outlay. Their VPS plans scale from small test instances to high memory/CPU tiers, while dedicated servers offer large disk and transfer allowances. Billing is transparent with monthly and longer-term options, which suits freelancers, dev teams and SMBs that need predictable, low-cost infrastructure.
Infrastructure & options
The provider operates multiple datacenter locations across Europe and the US and offers SSD and NVMe storage, optional backup add‑ons, and DDoS protection on many plans. Hardware options include conventional HDD for large-storage needs and NVMe for high I/O workloads. Contabo focuses on raw compute and storage rather than fully managed platform services.
Plans and support
Contabo sells VPS, Storage VPS, GPU and dedicated servers plus domain registration and backup options. The offering is primarily unmanaged: customers handle OS and app maintenance, while paid managed services and paid support extras are available. Support is mainly ticket and email based, with paid phone options in some cases.
