> I would love to know if they are any north-american (particularly canadian) companies that can compete with price and the quality of service like Hetzner

FWIW, Hetzner has two data centers in the US, in case you're just looking for "Hetzner quality but in the US", not for "American/Canadian companies similar to Hetzner".

IIRC, Hetzners dedicated instances are only available in their German and Finnish data centers, not anywhere else sadly :/

[joshstrange]

This is correct, they only offer VPS in the US.

[atonse]

But are the VPSs also similarly much better performing than AWS?

[joshstrange]

I don't know the answer to that, I believe they are a good bit cheaper (it's been a while since I compared apples-to-apples). My understanding is that they are a good deal but I can't say that with 100% certainty.

latitude.sh do bare metal in the US well

[GordonS]

Yes, but they are vastly more expensive than Hetzner (looks like pricing stats at just under $200/m for 6 cores).

[g8oz]

Similarly OVH is French and has bare metal in their US and Canadian data centers.

Yeah no dedicated severs in the US sadly. I'm not aware of anyone who can quite match hetzners pricing in the US (but if someone does I'd love to know!). https://www.serversearcher.com throws up clouvider and latitiude at good pricing but.. not hetzner levels by any means.

[MrPowerGamerBR]

I haven't checked Hetzner's prices in a while, but OVHcloud has dedicated servers and they do have dedicated servers in the US and in Canada (I've been using their dedicated servers for years already and they are pretty dang good)

[matt-p]

Seems to be broadly the same sadly, but thanks it's interesting to see they're all hovering quite close to eachother.

I have been considering colocating at endoffice (I saw the suggestion once at codinghorror.com)
