We have released a new generation of configurable KVM Root Servers. Let’s explain the differences.
New pricing structure
To accommodate all the new features of the web interface as well as reflect the quality of the servers, we have improved the pricing structure. The IPv4 address is now additionally calculated in the configurator. You can now book 3 additional IP addresses. The price per IP address is reduced to 0.99 Euro.
Traffic and bandwidth
Our KVM Servers 3.0 now come with 10 TB of high-speed traffic per month and up to 2 Gbit/s connection speed. Previously, it was only 2 TB with a maximum speed of 1 Gbit/s. Please note that the network traffic is subject to a strict policy.
We throttle server traffic and reserve the right to terminate the contract without notice if the following traffic is detected:
- VPN traffic outside your own household
- Traffic through any kind of Tor nodes
- Torrent involving copyright-protected material
- Proxy (similar) traffic outside your own household
- IPTV
- 24/7 livestreams to Twitch/YouTube, etc.
Otherwise, we are relatively unconcerned about your traffic behavior.
New web interface functions, features, and benefits
New functions for the Cloud Manager will no longer be available for the 2.0 servers. So if you want to benefit from the latest web interface features, you should get a KVM 3.0 server.
How long can I keep my old server?
Existing servers can still be used. They will continue to run as long as the server is paid for.
Can I migrate the server?
Direct migration is not possible. You would need to order a new server and set it up. You can create a backup of your old server and restore it on your new server. With prior agreement, we can transfer the old IP address to the new server for a fee of 5.00 Euro.
Affordable alternative
If you are not satisfied with the pricing of the new KVM Root Servers, we have something else for you: Our Smart Value Root Servers. These are packages based on KVM technology, but cheaper and with less flexibility.
If you only need a server without all the bells and whistles, the Smart Value Root Servers are perfect for you. We have already summarized the difference here.
