Is Hetzner's CPX62 the best deal?

Cloud Servers · $152.99/mo (32 GB RAM, 16 vCPU, 640 GB SSD/NVMe, 20000 GB transfer)

Better deals exist

Hetzner CPX62 is expensive at $152.99/mo, especially after the June 2026 price hikes (2.4-2.75x increase). Several competitors offer comparable or better specs at 60-75% lower cost, though most lock you into long prepay terms and have steep renewal penalties. Watch for traffic overage charges and contract lock-in across all alternatives.

Cloud VPS Plus 8

$32.13/mosave 79%

24GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 450GB NVMe, unlimited traffic at less than 1/5 the Hetzner price with no traffic overage risk.

Caveat: Requires 24-month prepay; shorter terms cost significantly more; fair usage policy can throttle sustained high bandwidth; ticket-only support on base tier.

KVM 8

$25.99/mosave 83%

32GB RAM (matches Hetzner), 8 vCPU, 400GB NVMe, 32TB transfer for 83% less; AMD EPYC processor and weekly backups included.

Caveat: Intro price requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renews at $49.99/mo (92% increase); monthly billing available but much pricier.

IONOS CLOUD Cubes (Memory) Memory Cube L

$48.24/mosave 69%

32GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 480GB NVMe, unlimited traffic up to 1 Gbit/s at 69% savings; 99.99% SLA.

Caveat: Intro pricing is promotional (1-year contract); renewal pricing 2-6x higher; traffic beyond 2TB free pool billed at $0.036/GB; additional IPv4 addresses cost $6/mo each.

Stack 32

$59.99/mosave 61%

32GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 450GB NVMe, unmetered bandwidth, full root access, Docker/KVM support, and 100% SLA at 61% savings.

Caveat: Steep renewal penalty (shared hosting jumps ~280% at renewal); monthly-only billing with no hourly option; free domain only year 1.

VPS-4

$23.37/mosave 85%

24GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 200GB NVMe, unlimited traffic, daily backups, 3 Gbps bandwidth at 85% less than Hetzner.

Caveat: Lower storage (200GB vs 640GB); IPv4 addresses billed separately; Windows license surcharge applies; APAC outbound traffic loses free-egress status after mid-2026.

Before you switch

Hetzner CPX/CCX lines saw 2.4-2.75x price increases in June 2026; verify current pricing hasn't risen further.
Most alternatives require 24-36 month prepay to hit advertised intro rates; renewal prices are typically 2-6x higher.
Contabo and Hostinger have fair-usage/throttling policies on 'unlimited' traffic; confirm your workload won't trigger limits.
IONOS and Bluehost charge per-GB for traffic overages beyond free pools; calculate your actual egress before committing.
Verify VAT treatment: Hetzner, Contabo, and Gcore prices exclude VAT; final cost may be 15-25% higher in EU regions.
DreamHost and Bluehost have steep renewal penalties; budget for 2-3x price increase after year 1.
Check SLA guarantees: Namecheap has undefined SLA; others range 99.9-100%.
