About Hetzner

We have not published our editorial assessment of Hetzner yet. This page exists so players who have hosted with them can start leaving reviews straight away — the community scores below are real, and they build up before our own write-up does.

If you have hosted a server with Hetzner, tell other players how it went.

What we still need to research

  • Data centre locations and the routes they give to European, North American and Oceanic players
  • Current entry pricing, and what the renewal price looks like after any introductory discount
  • CPU generation and clock speed on their game server nodes
  • Which control panel they use, and whether you get real file and console access
  • Backup policy: how many, how often, and whether restoring one costs money
  • Refund window and how it is applied in practice
  • Support response times on a weekday and at 3am on a Sunday

Backups were on the same box

Lost about three weeks of a build because the node failed and the backups were sitting on the same node. That is not a backup and it should not be described as one. To their credit they were upfront once it happened, and they did not charge me for the following month. It does not really replace the world though. Take your own copies wherever you host. I do now, obsessively.

Two years, zero drama

I have had a small server with these for over two years now for a group of about eight friends. It has never gone down in a way I noticed, the backups have restored correctly the two times I needed them, and the panel has not changed in a way that broke my muscle memory. Support I have only needed twice. Both times a real person replied inside an hour and actually read what I wrote rather than sending a template. It is not the cheapest and I do not care. Boring is exactly what I want from hosting.
