Which DC is this?
Edit: nvm, they got an own DC in Jena. Interesting location for me, thanks for sharing.
Edit2: they advertise a pop in berlin, but from my home location i get routed via BCIX --cogent--> DECIX --cogent--> EUserv DC in Jena
95EUR Setup on monthly contract... #rip
Oh lol didn't see that
even though it's right beside the monthly price. That's tough. Since you are saying monthly, what about the 12 month contract?Edit: On a 12 month contract it seems to be 53€ setup. That's better atleast and the 64GB RAM OVH special also had a setup fee iirc? Anyway seems like you can select to either pay 12 months upfront on 12 months contract or pay monthly but the contract period will still be 12 months.
Brilliant, salesman of the year award no doubt.
Seems like only worth considering in the long run. 53€ setup isn't too bad in the long run considering the specs and the fact that OVH and Hetzner (not Hetzner Serverboerse) usually charge setup fees too.
For one month it's definitly a lot of money though.
I put the Setup fees in OP. Thanks @Neoon
A server right in the middle between me and frankfurt, with a direct route via BCIX to my home would be worth the setup and 12 month contract tbh.
In the long term I consider 53€to be okay-ish for a Dedicated Server setup fee. To pay setup fees for monthly dedis, especially 95€, hurts though.

Used to have an FTP backup, but the network wasn't good. FTP keep disconnecting after a few hundreds MB.
Found some benchmark with EUServ network performance/speedtest although a bit old:

stay away from EUserv at all cost. have been previous client and glad to be away. bullshit procedures, no common sense, bad service. At least they have a button Close Customer Account. Thanks to GDPR.
Are you by any chances familiar with how contracts are handled in Germany (not to be offensive; if you are that's fair) ? I've not been with them yet but often enough - just like with netcup - it's different expectations on contract time/renewal/cancellation etc.
Connection speed type "Guaranteed", "Hybrid" or "Best Effort" traffic transport speed
Hybrid: 250Mbit „Guaranteed Bandwidth“, remaining „Best Effort“
Fucking marketing bullshit, "Hybrid" bandwidth, stop fucking my mind.
@Ympker: I wouldn't expect details from @silverdown. See also:

Well, you always get what you pay for. Anyone who expects a dedicated 1 Gbit/s unlimited line at that price needs to rethink this. Usually these kinda offers start at 300€+ (if even) judging from the quotes I've seen here on LET.
Interesting to see their Weathermap:

Had once to deal with them. Never again.
Hetzner tho
Hetzner ist Hetzner. They are awesome
And they offer 20TB afaik. Although that's still awesome :P
They offer unlimited transfer on all dedis including auction servers since some months, and 20TB on their cloud offers. I guess they had to do it because people started to use 2,50€/m cloud instances to buy more traffic for their dedis at insane low prices (they charged arround 1€/TB before if I remember correctly).
Unlimited now. Been for a few months.
Oh they do now?
I thought that it still says they will throttle after 20TB. That's interesting to hear.
Nope. Haven't heard anyone being throttled even though they've used 100+TB of upload BW.
I am from Germany and have yet to sign up with Hetzner.. Damn.. It sounds just so tempting always.
If you got relatives or trusted friends outside EU, sign up with their data/ID. Saves you up to 20% on anything.
Soo I was given a benchmark result by their support for the SSD version of this dedi in case anyone is interested:

there network is garbo .. speeds are not great ..here u can test..

That link downloads with 40 MiB/s (300+ Mbit/s) for me. Doesn't look bad to me.
@dfroe I get 20-30MB/s download to my home on 500Mbit, 25-30MB/s to my php-friends server on Gbit and 50MB/s on my Hetzner server on Gbit. That's all far from Gbit.
Honestly it seems they are just connected to DECIX via Cogent with a backup route via HE. Which puts them even behind Hetzner network-quality wise, as Hetzner at least manages its own network until the exchange. Not to start with the fact they advertise pops at BCIX and AMSIX while any tests I run are routed via Frankfurt.
@pike, you're right, their traffic mix doesn't seem to be "well mixed" at all. My test was done from a Online.net dedi. I just did another test from a residential DTAG VDSL with 50 MBit/s downstream. There I only meassure 250 KB/s (2 Mbit/s) which of course isn't worth talking about. Of course we all know DTAG peering policy. But 2 Mbit/s.. Obviously even Hetzner with their sub-optimal routing towards DTAG performs way better.
Well, DTAG is a different story. And Hetzner offers you direct DTAG peering for +5€/m.
Edit: At least they peer with O².
