CubePath prices shown are the monthly compute rate; add $1.50/mo for a dedicated IPv4 address.
Hetzner figures are its public USD monthly rates for the EU regions (Germany and Finland), excluding VAT and IPv4, read from Hetzner's own live price feed on 14 September 2026 and reflecting its price adjustment effective 15 June 2026. A dedicated IPv4 adds $0.60/mo there and $1.50/mo here. Specs are matched as closely as possible; where a tier differs, each column states its own configuration.

Hetzner's CAX line runs on Ampere ARM CPUs. CubePath does not offer ARM instances: rebuild those workloads for x86 and deploy them on the General Purpose plan with the same vCPU and RAM.
Hetzner's Cost-Optimized line (CX and CAX) is listed as not available for new orders on hetzner.com as we write this, so the CX rows are here for anyone still running one.

The reasons developers and teams move their cloud servers to CubePath.
The same AMD cores and NVMe storage you would pick on Hetzner, for up to 65% less every month.
CubePath Dedicated CPU gives you twice the guaranteed cores of a comparable CCX instance, at a lower monthly rate.
Barcelona for EU data residency and low latency across Iberia, plus Houston and Miami for the US and Latin America.
Always-on, network-level mitigation included with every server, at no extra cost.
Spin servers up and down on demand. You are billed per hour with a monthly cap, so you never pay more than the listed rate.
Talk to engineers who actually run the platform, in English and Spanish, with no paid support tiers required.
Anything that runs on a Hetzner cloud server runs here. These are the ones we see most.
Coolify, Dokploy, EasyPanel or plain Docker Compose, with full root and a public IP. gp.starter is the usual starting point.
n8n workflows, coding agents and bots that need to stay up when your laptop is closed, on an always-on server with hourly billing.
WordPress, Laravel, Node, Next.js or a static build behind your own Nginx or Caddy, deployed from a clean image or a 1-click app.
PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis or Valkey on NVMe storage, with snapshots and automatic backups with up to 7 days of retention.
Builds, CI runners, video encoding or scraping on Dedicated CPU plans, and on bare metal when a whole machine is the right answer.
Portainer, Supabase, Grafana, Uptime Kuma, MinIO, Nextcloud, GitLab and more, installed in one step instead of by hand.
Deploy an AMD EPYC + NVMe server in under a minute and see the difference on your next invoice.
Bring your workloads over without the headache.
Match your current CPX or CCX instance to a CubePath VPS, or size up for the same budget.
Launch from a clean OS image or a 1-click marketplace app, then restore your data from a snapshot or backup.
Update your domain's records to the new server, check that everything answers, then delete the old Hetzner instance.
The six things worth checking before you move a production workload, whichever provider you end up on.
Entry prices tell you very little. Take the configuration you actually run, and price it on both sides with the extras included: the IPv4 address, the VAT that applies to you, backups and any support plan. A 4 vCPU / 8 GB AMD instance is $41.99/mo on Hetzner CPX32 in the EU regions and $15.21/mo on CubePath gp.starter, so on that shape the gap is around 64% before either invoice adds anything else.
Shared vCPU plans (Hetzner CX and CPX, CubePath General Purpose) split physical cores between tenants and are the right call for web apps, small databases, bots and staging. Dedicated vCPU plans (Hetzner CCX, CubePath Dedicated CPU) reserve physical cores for you, which matters for builds, CI runners, video encoding, game servers and anything latency-sensitive. Paying for dedicated cores you do not need is the most common way to overspend.
Traffic is where providers differ most. Hetzner includes 20 TB with every cloud plan in its EU regions and 1 to 5 TB in its US ones. CubePath includes from 3 TB on the entry plan up to 200 TB on the largest, so the smaller plans allow less than a European Hetzner server and the larger ones allow considerably more. If you serve media or backups, price the traffic before the compute.
Hetzner serves the EU from Germany and Finland. CubePath's EU region is Barcelona, which is the shorter path for Spain, Portugal and southern Europe, and its Houston and Miami sites cover the US and Latin America. Latency is decided by geography, so measure it from where your users actually are: our looking glass runs the test from each site.
Check the language your provider answers in, the hours it covers and whether decent support is an add-on. CubePath support is handled by the engineers who run the platform, in English and Spanish, with no paid tiers to unlock it. Also confirm there is DDoS mitigation at network level, included rather than billed per incident.
A provider worth moving to is one you could move away from. Look for snapshots and backups you control, an API and a CLI for automation and plain rsync or rclone access to your data. CubePath exposes a REST API and an open source CLI, so the same migration you are doing now stays a scripted job rather than a manual rebuild.
Summary: for shared AMD instances CubePath is roughly 53% to 70% cheaper than the equivalent Hetzner CPX plan, and for dedicated cores it is roughly 32% to 58% cheaper than the equivalent CCX plan, with more cores at the same RAM tier. Hetzner includes more traffic on its smaller EU plans. Everything else, from NVMe storage and AMD EPYC CPUs to hourly billing and snapshots, is common ground.
The questions we hear most from people making the switch.
For comparable AMD cores and RAM, yes. Following Hetzner's price adjustment effective 15 June 2026, a CPX32 with 4 vCPU and 8 GB lists at $41.99/mo in the EU regions, while the equivalent CubePath gp.starter is $15.21/mo. You can check the full lineup on the live VPS plans page.
We match vCPU and RAM tier for tier, on AMD EPYC CPUs with NVMe SSD storage, the same class of hardware Hetzner's CPX and CCX lines run on. Disk sizes vary between providers, and each column in the tables above states its own configuration so you can see exactly what you get.
Every CubePath server ships with a monthly transfer allowance, from 3 TB on the entry plan up to 200 TB on the largest ones. Hetzner includes 20 TB on every cloud plan in its EU regions, which is more than our smaller plans allow, and 1 to 5 TB in its US regions, which is less than ours.
CubePath runs data centers in Barcelona (EU), plus Houston and Miami in the US, so you get genuine EU data residency alongside low-latency coverage for North and South America.
Yes. You move it yourself with the tools you already use: deploy a CubePath VPS, copy your data over from a snapshot, a backup or a plain rsync between servers, test it, and point your DNS at the new server.
Yes. Servers are billed per hour with a monthly cap, so you never pay more than the listed monthly rate. As on Hetzner, a server bills for as long as it exists, including while it is stopped, so destroy it when you are done to stop the charge.
Yes. The CubePath Dedicated CPU line gives you guaranteed physical cores with no noisy neighbours, starting at $30.42/mo for 4 cores and 8 GB, compared with $50.49/mo for a 2-core CCX13.
Pick a plan from the VPS page, deploy it in seconds and you are running. If you would like a hand sizing the move, talk to our team first and we will recommend the right plan for your workload.
Yes. Alongside cloud servers, CubePath rents full bare metal machines with dedicated CPUs, RAM and NVMe storage, and Windows or custom ISO installs are available there. See the dedicated servers page for the current lineup.
Yes. Hetzner published a price adjustment that took effect on 15 June 2026 for new orders and rescales, covering its cloud server lines in every region. The figures on this page were read from Hetzner's own live price feed on 14 September 2026, so the comparison reflects what you would pay today.
No. CubePath runs AMD EPYC x86 hardware across the whole fleet, so an ARM workload has to be rebuilt for x86 before it moves. Most Docker images and interpreted stacks handle that with a rebuild; anything compiled for aarch64 needs recompiling. Hetzner currently lists its CAX line as unavailable for new orders in any case.
That is exactly what CubePath's EU region is. Our European site is in Barcelona, so your data stays in the EU and in Spain specifically, with a shorter network path for users in Spain, Portugal and southern Europe than a server in Germany or Finland.
Hetzner CPX instances use shared AMD vCPU, and CCX instances reserve dedicated vCPU. On CubePath, General Purpose (gp.*) is the shared line that replaces CX and CPX, and Dedicated CPU (dc.*) is the guaranteed-core line that replaces CCX. The table above maps every instance type one by one.
Yes. CubePath has a REST API and an open source CLI, so you can create, rescale, snapshot and destroy servers from a script or a CI pipeline, the same way you automate Hetzner Cloud today.
