What is Contabo?

Its VPS plans offer significantly more CPU, RAM, and storage than comparable plans from AWS, DigitalOcean, or Linode at a fraction of the cost. Contabo is popular with developers, game server operators, and businesses running self-hosted applications who prioritise raw compute power over managed services or premium support. Data centres are located in Europe, USA, and Asia.
