See Why Customers Love Contabo
"If there is a host I recommend, then Contabo is it. At first I was thinking if I should go for Contabo or not due to the amount of people saying it was a scam or that stuff like bandwidth and etc were not really unlimited or at X speed, but I risked and I can say that all the specs they advertise are true."
Most Popular Use Cases
Storage-Intense Applications
Storage VPS is well-suited for applications that don't have high I/O requirements and need to read/write a lot of data while performing computations, e.g., self-hosting Nextcloud (our customers have found this tutorial on setting up Nextcloud on any VPS to be helpful).
Backups and Disaster Recovery
Our customers typically use Storage VPS for backups, archiving data, and disaster recovery. Some also use Object Storage for additional backups of their data (you can never have too many backups of your backups).
Store Your Data with Full Control and Quick Access
You can use Storage VPS as a block storage alternative if you prefer a VM with a lot of storage data and want full control and quick access to your data.
