Who knows the Contabo hosting provider?

My brother got a VPS on https://contabo.com hosting provider, but I was not aware of them, and when my brother told me the price and specs I was :astonished:

I went and checked their website, and they seem to have awesome prices for super specs:

This leaves me with some suspicion how the heck they can offer such prices, when compared with DigitalOcean, Linode, etc.

Will this hosting provider be any good in terms o reliability to have production workloads on it :thinking:

Anyone knows about it?

Thanks for the link. I am not looking at the moment for a hosting provider, but I will keep it in mind.

Side note: that website is just not designed for a good user experience.
