Frequently Asked Questions about Nextcloud Hosting
We offer you product documentation with technical details and instructions, available in our Help Center Pages.
Here are the most frequently requested specs for object storage:
- You can use up to 100 buckets per S3 account.
- You can have one object storage per location.
- Max individual file size is 5 TB.
- API requests are limited to 250 per second.
You can also read the full list in our documentation.
Purchasing Object Storage won’t interfere with your Cloud VPS and or VDS plans. We designed our cloud object storage to be a complementary, independent service to our virtual private server and dedicated server offerings.
We accept payments in EUR, USD, and GBP, with different payment methods depending on the currency. Please see the full list here and this helpful video guide for more information.
For all payment methods other than credit card, the first payment after you have submitted an order has to be done manually. Please use the payment information provided after the order process. Once you have access to your Customer Control Panel, you can manage your payment methods, make payments, and set up automated payments conveniently.
You can use the Contabo API to create and manage all aspects of Object Storage. We use S3-compatible format and protocol for API calls connected to objects and buckets. You can also manage basic aspects through Contabo CLI. It is also possible to use AWS S3 CLI with Contabo Object Storage.
Yes. Use API, AWS S3 CLI, Cyberduck or other clients supporting versioning to access this feature.
Please use the AWS S3 CLI and follow the instructions in their documentation.
No, there are no fees for deleting objects. Our Object Storage has an all-inclusive rate so there are no extra charges. Plus, we believe you shouldn’t be charged for handling your own data.
Data transfer is unlimited and free with Contabo Object Storage.
You can easily install Nextcloud free of charge on any existing Contabo VPS or VDS instance via your Customer Control Panel . Simply follow our step-by-step guide .
Of course. You can do this easily via the Users section within your Nextcloud instance.
Please note that due to server-side restrictions, added users will not receive an email. However, you can simply set the login credentials for your new users and send it to them directly (they will be able to change the password later if needed).
The entire provisioning process including installation of the Nextcloud image can take up to 30 minutes in two stages:
- Your server will be provisioned, and you will receive login details via email. For standard configurations, this usually takes no more than a few minutes.
- Once the server itself is up and running, please allow the remainder of 30 minutes for the Nextcloud instance to be installed and activated.
We provide 24/7 technical support for our infrastructure - the physical server, network connectivity, and access to your VPS. However, we do not provide application-specific support for Nextcloud itself. For help with Nextcloud configuration, errors, or apps, the official Nextcloud community forums are the best resource.
Yes, we offer
cPanel
and
Plesk
hosting control panels at additional cost. We also offer Webmin for free. Note that we’re offering
Plesk for free for the first month
across our Cloud VPS, Cloud VDS, Storage VPS, and Dedicated Server plans.
If you’re not satisfied with Plesk within the first month, then just cancel it before the end of your first month through the
Customer Control Panel
(you won’t be charged if you cancel it before the first month ends). We also put together this
hosting panel comparison guide
to help you decide which panel is best for your needs.
Check out our Knowledge Base for everything you need to know on getting your server up and running , from accessing the Contabo Customer Control Panel to configuring additional IP addresses.

Yes. We have a Terraform provider that allows management of our Cloud VPS, Cloud VDS and Object Storage via the Contabo API .
You can access the provider and documentation on the Terraform registry.
There isn’t a single “best” Cloud VPS host. The right choice depends on your workload and budget. Well-regarded options include Contabo, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, OVHcloud, IONOS, Hostinger, Vultr, UpCloud, Kamatera, Scaleway, and AWS Lightsail. Compare price-to-performance (CPU/RAM/NVMe), regions and latency, included bandwidth, security features, backup options, and support quality. Contabo is a solid pick if you want strong price-performance with global locations and transparent pricing.
Managed VPS hosting means the provider takes care of daily server administration - such as OS and security updates, monitoring, backups, and troubleshooting - so the user can focus on their applications. Self-managed / unmanaged VPS hosting costs significantly less and gives full control, with the user handling maintenance. At Contabo, self-managed doesn’t mean difficult: you get powerful tools like the Customer Control Panel , free 1-click apps , a detailed Help Desk , and plenty of tutorials plus the freedom to add any other management tools or services you prefer.
