They can keep their servers. I don’t want them.
Does anyone else offer herzner pricing?
We offer fully automated hetzner servers in our billing - billing.spacecore.pro
If you actually need the servers and don't churn them each month then setup fees like those are really not a concern for most people. Still good deals.
labour getting expensive! they should offer setup-yourself options
I do think setup fees for non-custom builds are a bit icky. The servers are racked and ready anyway, its not like there is extra labour involved. Especially if one customer has already paid the "initial" setup fee.
Then again, Hetzner runs promos waiving setup fees on a semi-regular basis so if you can wait, you can avoid the hit. If you cannot wait, then you probably don't care about the extra one-time cost.
As for me, I go for Server Auction boxes anyway, so I don't have the setup fees problem.
I just wish Hetzner let me purchase drives outright instead of paying a monthly €30for a 22TB drive.
Hetzner's pricing is interesting. They have (very decent) pricing for remote hands and they will do a free crash cart + KVM connection on request. But that's offset by the higher parts cost. Going back to that 22TB drive example - a year's worth of use pays for the drive outright. I get it that they want to make money, but if they charged me a nominal €5/month after the drive was paid off in full, I'd feel a lot better.
It's most likely due to memory pricing. I'm sure Hetzner mostly uses the setup fees to offset their hardware costs, not because there is a significant cost involved in actually setting up the servers.
They didn't announce price changes yet, could be potential prices 2026 and ram/ssd pricing.
