Is IONOS's Object Storage - Standard the best deal?

Object Storage · $0/mo

Best in class

IONOS Object Storage at $0/mo entry price is highly competitive for S3-compatible storage. However, the lack of confirmed pricing details (404'd docs), unclear storage class options, and tiered egress costs ($0.036/GB initially) mean real total cost depends heavily on your usage pattern. No cheaper alternatives were found in the filtered results.

Before you switch

Confirm current pricing docs and storage class availability directly with IONOS sales, since the spec sheet flags a 404'd documentation page
Calculate your likely egress costs: 2TB free pooled allowance, then $0.036/GB (2-10TB tier) adds up quickly for high-bandwidth workloads
Verify whether the $0/mo tier includes any SLA, support, or durability guarantees compared to paid tiers
Check if request costs (GET, PUT, DELETE) are included or metered separately, since this was not confirmed
Compare total egress costs against AWS S3 Standard ($0.09/GB first 10TB) or Backblaze B2 ($0.006/GB) if you exceed the 2TB free allowance significantly
