📜 Plan description

📄 Editorial Review

eCompute—operated by HOSTGW SRL—entered the European cloud-hosting arena in 2016 and has since focused on low-latency infrastructure housed exclusively in EU data centres. By blending enterprise hardware with a lean pricing model, they target freelancers, SaaS start-ups, and larger teams that need predictable performance without surrendering on support quality.

Core Services

Enterprise-Grade VPS

Their KVM virtual machines start from €3.60 per month and carry a stated 99.99 % uptime guarantee. Every instance includes two free weekly snapshots, a welcome addition that removes the need to budget separately for basic backup protection. Plans can be upgraded in-place from the customer portal, so seasonal traffic spikes rarely require a full migration.

Dedicated Bare Metal

Bare-metal servers commence at €65, positioning them among the more aggressive offers in the region. Hardware is selected for longevity and remote-management capability, allowing administrators to intervene at BIOS level when necessary. Low-level access is especially helpful for clients running custom hypervisors or specialised workloads.

Managed Network & Security

A proprietary control panel bundles firewall rules, resource scaling, and backup management into a single dashboard. Anti-DDoS measures are available for higher-risk projects, and traffic is routed through multiple European carriers to minimise latency and single-point failure.

Hardware Philosophy

Before deploying a node, engineers evaluate component reliability, cost efficiency, and compatibility with common operating systems as well as modern virtualisation stacks. Servers are acquired only from vendors with robust quality-assurance processes, reducing the likelihood of mid-life hardware faults. Continuous 24 ⁄ 7 monitoring flags resource degradation early, and replacement parts remain on-site for rapid swap-outs.

Customer Support

Technical assistance runs round the clock via ticket, e-mail, or phone, with an advertised average response of twenty minutes. On-site staff handle physical checks, while the remote team resolves software or network incidents; the combination ensures problems seldom bounce between departments.

Pricing & Value

Introductory VPS tiers undercut many global brands, yet still include weekly backups and static IPv4. Dedicated-server rates are competitive, though optional managed add-ons—such as advanced security packs—can nudge total cost upward. Prospective clients should factor these extras into long-term budgets.

Areas to Watch

• The knowledge-base library remains modest; newcomers might rely heavily on support tickets until documentation expands.
• IPv6 availability is implied but not extensively promoted—businesses planning dual-stack deployments may need to confirm details during onboarding.
