Comparison · Ekaii Hosting vs Hetzner
Ekaii Hosting vs Hetzner: same network, service on top
We are transparent: our VPS build on Hetzner’s infrastructure, one of the best value networks in Europe. So the question is not "who has the better network" but "what do we add on top".
What Hetzner does well
Unbeatable raw prices and first-class infrastructure. If you are comfortable on the command line and want to self-manage, going straight to Hetzner is perfectly legitimate.
The catch
Everything is self-service in English/German: no managed offers, no turnkey tuned WordPress, no crypto payment, account and verification required.
Where we win
- Managed offers (web, WordPress, games, SaaS) on our hardware in France — which Hetzner does not offer.
- Account-less, KYC-free ordering, Monero payment — impossible at Hetzner.
- Thin, published margin: the markup over Hetzner’s raw price is explicit and modest.
