📄 Editorial Review

Surfplanet GmbH is a German hosting, network and colocation provider based in Cologne. The company was founded in 1997 by André Wagner and Elmar Altmeyer, initially concentrating on web hosting and internet-access services. It became Surfplanet GmbH in 2002, when the business expanded into server housing, server hosting, internet telephony, technical consulting, support and routing services.

A major step followed in 2004 with the opening of the company’s own data center in Cologne. Surfplanet continued expanding its colocation activities and added a separate data-center area for tower-server housing in 2009. The company is currently managed by Elmar Altmeyer and Carlos Santos.

Surfplanet is primarily a Colocation Hosting provider rather than a mass-market shared-hosting company. Its services are particularly suitable for businesses in Cologne and the surrounding region that want to relocate physical servers from an office or private server room while retaining convenient access to their equipment.

The Serverhousing range accommodates standard rack servers and tower systems. The Starter package provides space for one 1U server, one IP address, 1 TB of monthly traffic, 150 watts of included power and four resets. Tower Starter provides similar resources for tower-format hardware. The Profi alternatives increase the included traffic to 2 TB and power allowance to 200 watts while adding monitoring and a web-based reset function.

The Rackhousing service covers both half-rack and full-rack deployments. A half rack includes 22 usable rack units, while the full-rack option includes 44 usable units. Customers can select a metered traffic package or a 100 Mbit/s flat-rate connection. Redundant A/B power feeds, RIPE-compliant IP allocation and round-the-clock physical access are included.

Surfplanet also maintains a small Shared Hosting range under its Webspace product line. The Starter package provides 200 MB of storage, 1 TB of monthly traffic, 20 POP3 or IMAP email accounts and five MySQL databases. The Profi package increases the allocation to 500 MB of storage, 2 TB of traffic, 100 email accounts and ten MySQL databases. Both packages support PHP, Perl and Plesk administration.

These shared-hosting plans are appropriate for small company websites, basic email hosting and older lightweight applications. The storage allowances are extremely limited for modern WordPress installations, online stores or media-heavy websites, making Surfplanet considerably stronger in physical infrastructure than in general-purpose shared hosting.

Domain Registration covers common extensions such as .de, .com, .net, .org, .at, .info and .biz. Surfplanet acts as an intermediary between customers and the relevant domain registries, while availability and current prices are handled through the company’s contact and ordering process.

A more unusual service is the connection of colocated equipment to satellite and terrestrial antenna systems. Reception options include Eutelsat at 13° East and several Astra positions, including 19.2°, 23.5° and 28.2° East. DVB-T and FM radio antenna connections can also be arranged. This infrastructure is useful for broadcasting, signal monitoring, media processing and other specialized applications rarely supported by conventional hosting providers.

Additional services include port monitoring, physical remote-hands assistance, copper and fiber cross-connects, FTP backup capacity, web resetters, extra Ethernet ports, additional power capacity, internal cabling and customized antenna connections.

Surfplanet has held ISO/IEC 27001 certification since February 28, 2022. Its information-security management system was migrated to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 in 2025, strengthening the provider’s suitability for business customers that require formal security processes and documented operational controls.

The company operates in German, and prices are shown in EUR. The website has an older, compact design and a traditional ordering process. Some product characteristics, including very small webspace quotas and ISDN-related extras, reflect the company’s long operating history. The overall service is better suited to customers seeking direct technical contact and customized infrastructure than those expecting an automated cloud dashboard.
