Recommend a server not Hetzner (alien.top)

Hi all

I’m looking for a new server, I had just signed up to Hetzner and I’ve already been stopped from purchasing any more servers and they won’t unlock it or unlock ports.

I’m guessing I’ve done something wrong but they won’t tell me. All I’ve done is created and deleted a few servers while I was learning to setup up for my environment and leave my browser open for hours while still logged into Hetzner.

I’ve paid two invoices that I had on time but they’re not leaving me with much trust.

I don’t fancy paying a company that seems to decide on a whim that we’ll stop the service.

I have nothing but good things to say about Hetzner. I've been working with them for at least 15 years already. They are not as deep-pocketed as the other cloud providers, so they need to make sure that you are not going to end up abusing their servers and they need to establish that you are in good standing.

With that said, I've also had good experiences with:

  • DigitalOcean. lots of documentation online, but their servers are more expensive.
  • Kimsufi, if you just want some cheap server and don't mind dealing with OVH's clunky interface.
