📄 Editorial Review

Contabo is a long-established German hosting provider, founded in 2003 under the name Go-International before adopting the current brand in 2013. Known for its emphasis on German quality and global availability, the company has grown into a large-scale provider serving over 200,000 customers across 190 countries. While its original product lineup included shared hosting, as of 2025, shared hosting is no longer offered, with the focus shifted towards high-performance cloud and dedicated infrastructure.

The company maintains separate platforms for domestic and international markets: contabo.de for German customers and contabo.com for the global audience. It has built its reputation on delivering affordable hosting solutions without compromising on performance through hardware standardization, large-scale procurement, and operational efficiency.

Contabo provides its services in English, German, and Spanish, appealing to a broad international audience. Pricing is available in EUR, USD, and GBP, giving customers flexibility based on their location and preferred currency.

In recent years, Contabo has adjusted its product strategy by discontinuing shared hosting—which was still available in 2022—and now focuses primarily on VPS and dedicated server solutions, reinforcing its position in the performance-focused hosting market.
Product Range

Contabo offers a wide variety of services for different hosting needs:
  • Cloud VPS – High-performance virtual private servers with AMD EPYC processors, fast NVMe storage, generous bandwidth (32 TB outgoing, unlimited inbound), private networking, DDoS protection, and provisioning within minutes. Configurations can run on Linux or Windows with control panel options like cPanel or Plesk.
  • Cloud VDS (Virtual Dedicated Servers) – Dedicated virtual environments for workloads requiring higher performance and isolation, with full root access and flexible scaling.
  • Dedicated Servers – Bare metal machines with customizable storage (HDD, SSD, NVMe), optional GPU acceleration (NVIDIA GeForce/Tesla), high traffic allowances, and hardware virtualization support.
  • Specialized VPS Types – Including Windows VPS, cPanel VPS, Forex VPS, GPU VPS, and Storage VPS.
  • Object Storage – Scalable, cost-effective data storage solutions.
  • Domain Services – Domain registration and DNS management, either bundled with hosting or standalone.
  • Developer & Networking Tools – API, CLI, cloud-init, CI/CD integration, private networking, and snapshots.

In addition, Contabo provides tailored solutions such as database hosting, eCommerce hosting, self-hosted mail, Nextcloud instances, and crypto-focused hosting setups. Their infrastructure is reinforced by always-on DDoS mitigation, redundant systems, and strict physical security measures.

The company’s approach combines cost efficiency with technical reliability, making them popular among budget-conscious developers, small businesses, and large-scale infrastructure operators.

😠 Long-term cheap is expensive
Contabo has a serious problem with its policy of eliminating servers with customer data,
If you want to start working with contabo, keep in mind that if one day you cannot pay for any reason
in less than 10 days they will delete all the data,
this is a big problem for any new company in the organization phase,
because if for some health reason you could not pay in 10 days, forget all the data of your clients
