요약
Choose FDC Servers when your users are outside Europe — Asia-Pacific, Latin America, or one of nine North American metros — or when you want unmetered ports and CDN or IP transit from the same vendor on a network they own. Choose X-ZoneServers when the workload is European, you want EUR invoicing from an EU company, a VPS ladder with hourly billing under the bare metal, and a published price for every chassis at every bandwidth tier.

Where FDC Servers is the stronger fit
Reach we do not have — APAC, LATAM and nine North American metros
FDC Servers lists 23 locations, including Singapore, Tokyo and Hong Kong, São Paulo, and nine metros across the United States and Canada. Our footprint is eleven European metros plus Ashburn. If your audience sits outside Europe, no other line on this page matters as much as that one — physics decides, and their PoP is closer.
Its own AS30058, plus CDN and IP transit from the same vendor
FDC has run AS30058 for over twenty years with its own EMEA backbone, and sells CDN from $2 per TB, IP transit and colocation up to 22 kW per rack alongside servers. If you want transit, delivery and compute on one contract and one network, that is a genuinely different offer from ours.
Faster bare metal, and a published money-back window
FDC states an in-stock dedicated server deploys in about 15 minutes and backs in-stock servers with a 72-hour money-back guarantee. Our dedicated builds typically take about an hour and we do not publish a money-back window on bare metal — on both of those points they are ahead.
Where X-ZoneServers is the stronger fit
EUR invoicing from an EU company, with every price on the page
We invoice in euros from a Romanian company, so EU buyers avoid USD exchange exposure and cross-border card fees, and VAT handling is straightforward. Our dedicated matrix also prints the monthly price of every chassis at every bandwidth tier from 1 to 200 Gbps, where FDC quotes configuration pricing through its order portal.
A VPS ladder with hourly billing beneath the bare metal
Not every high-bandwidth project starts as a dedicated server. Ours can start at €4.00/month on a 1 Gbps unmetered KVM VPS billed from €0.0056/hour, or €9.99/month for a 10 Gbps unmetered VPS, and move to bare metal when the workload earns it. FDC lists VPS from $6.99/month with no hourly option on the pages we checked.
DDoS mitigation stated as included on every plan
Layers 3, 4 and 7 are filtered on every plan we sell at no extra cost, which matters because high-bandwidth servers attract attacks. FDC's public pages we checked do not publish a blanket DDoS statement, so protection is something to confirm with them for your specific workload rather than something you can read off the page.
Pricing scenarios
Comparable workloads at published list prices. Currency, VAT treatment, setup fees and promotional terms differ per provider — the disclosure below the table explains how to read them.
Entry virtual server
X-ZoneServers
Nano — 2 GB RAM, 1 vCPU, 40 GB SSD, 1 Gbps unmetered — €4.00/mo excluding VAT, or €0.0056/hour.
FDC Servers
VPS from $6.99/month (USD, 2026-08-28). Per-plan RAM, vCPU, storage and port speed sit behind their order portal.
Entry dedicated server
X-ZoneServers
Dual Xeon E5-2630v3 — 16c/32t, 128 GB DDR4, 6 SSD bays, 1 Gbps guaranteed unmetered — €209/mo.
FDC Servers
Dedicated servers from $129/month (USD, 2026-08-28) on AMD EPYC and Intel Xeon with NVMe storage. The final figure depends on configuration, port and location, quoted in their portal.
A guaranteed multi-gigabit unmetered port
X-ZoneServers
Guaranteed 10 Gbps from €659/mo, 25 Gbps from €1,799/mo, 100 Gbps from €4,499/mo and 200 Gbps from €12,879/mo — every chassis priced at every tier on the site.
FDC Servers
10, 25 and 100 Gbps unmetered ports offered across their 23 locations, priced by quote through the order portal rather than published as a matrix.
솔직한 의견: FDC Servers was selling unmetered gigabit ports before much of this market existed, and their geographic reach is something we do not have — if your users are in Asia-Pacific, Latin America or across North America, start there and do not let anything else on this page talk you out of it. Inside Europe the comparison narrows to currency, transparency and the entry step: we invoice in EUR from an EU company, publish the price of every chassis at every bandwidth tier, and put an hourly VPS ladder underneath the bare metal.
Which one should you pick?
Pick X-ZoneServers if
- Your users are in Europe and you want EUR invoicing from an EU company.
- You want to read the price of a 10, 25, 50, 100 or 200 Gbps build off a page instead of asking for a quote.
- You want to start on a VPS billed by the hour and grow into bare metal.
- You want DDoS mitigation stated as included on every plan.
Pick FDC Servers if
- You need Asia-Pacific, Latin America, or a specific North American metro.
- You want servers, CDN and IP transit from one vendor on a network they own.
- You want an in-stock bare-metal server online in about fifteen minutes.
- A published money-back window on bare metal matters to your decision.
자주 묻는 질문
Which provider has more locations?
FDC Servers, by a wide margin: 23 locations spanning Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific and LATAM, against 12 metros in 11 countries for X-ZoneServers — eleven European plus Ashburn, Virginia. If your audience is outside Europe, FDC is likely to have a point of presence closer to them than we do.
Are the two priced in the same currency?
No. FDC Servers publishes in USD — dedicated servers from $129/month, VPS from $6.99/month — while X-ZoneServers publishes in EUR excluding VAT, with VPS from €4.00/month and dedicated servers from €209/month. Compare after conversion and after your own VAT treatment, not on the raw figures.
Which deploys a dedicated server faster?
FDC Servers states about 15 minutes for an in-stock dedicated server. X-ZoneServers dedicated servers are typically online within an hour of order when the configuration is in stock, though our VPS deploys in about 60 seconds. On bare metal specifically, FDC's published figure is the faster one.
Do both offer unmetered bandwidth?
Yes, with different presentation. FDC Servers states unmetered bandwidth on every port with 10, 25 and 100 Gbps options, priced by quote. X-ZoneServers sells guaranteed unmetered tiers of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100 and 200 Gbps with the monthly price of every chassis at every tier published on the site and no overage charge inside a tier.

Disclosure, method and limits
We are one of the providers compared
This page is published by X-ZoneServers (X ZONE IT SRL, Bucharest, Romania). We sell one of the two services compared, so this is a vendor comparison rather than an independent review. Our method is to quote each provider's own published figures, name the date we read them, and state plainly where the other provider is the better choice.
How the numbers are gathered
Competitor data is read directly from that provider's public website — pricing pages, specification sheets, network and location pages — on the dates listed under Sources, plus public network registries such as PeeringDB and bgp.he.net for ASN details. We do not benchmark competitor hardware ourselves and we do not republish figures from review sites or affiliate directories.
How to read the prices
List prices only. Promotional offers, first-term discounts, renewal rates, setup fees, add-ons, region surcharges and currency all differ per provider and can change without notice. X-ZoneServers prices are in EUR excluding VAT. Where another provider publishes in a different currency or inclusive of VAT, that is marked in the table — those figures are not directly comparable to ours without adjustment.
Accuracy and corrections
The goal is that every claim here can be verified at the source in under a minute. Nothing on this page is a benchmark result, a prediction, or a statement about a competitor's internal operations. If a figure has drifted or is wrong — including where the error favours us — write to us and we will correct it and move the review date.
Trademarks and affiliation
All company and product names are the property of their respective owners and are used here for identification and comparison only. X-ZoneServers is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or a reseller of any other provider named on this page.
