Кратко
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 each of its bandwidth tiers.

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 dedicated servers in ten European countries plus the United States, and VPS in six European cities 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 Our Xeon servers typically take about an hour, EPYC builds up to 14 days, and we do not publish a money-back window on bare metal — on both of those points they are ahead.
Lower published 'from' prices for dedicated 10–400 Gbps ports
FDC lists unmetered 10 Gbps from $199/month and 100 Gbps from $1,500/month without saying whether a server is included; our guaranteed dedicated tiers start at €659 for 10 Gbps and €4,499 for 100 Gbps, server included. If one of their 'from' configurations fits, it will likely cost less; our matrix publishes every chassis at every tier, so you can see the total before you ask.
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 each of its bandwidth tiers 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 KVM VPS with a 100 Mbps port, unmetered and billed from €0.0056/hour, or €9.99/month on a shared 10 Gbps 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.
1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection stated as included on every plan
1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4) is included 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, 20 GB SSD, 100 Mbps port, 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 €13,439/mo — every chassis priced at each of its tiers on the site.
FDC Servers
FDC publishes 'from' prices for unmetered ports: 10 Gbps from $199/month (EPYC VPS and dedicated servers), 100 Gbps from $1,500, 200 Gbps from $3,000 and 400 Gbps from $4,000 (USD, checked 2026-10-15). The page does not say whether a server is included or which locations the figures apply to; full configurations are priced in its portal.
Честная оценка: 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 each of its bandwidth tiers, and put an hourly VPS ladder underneath the bare metal.
05Руководство

Pick X-ZoneServers if
- Your users are in Europe and you want EUR invoicing from an EU company.

- You want to start on a VPS billed by the hour and grow into bare metal.
- You want 1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4) stated as included on every plan.
Pick FDC Servers if
- You need Asia-Pacific, Latin America, or a specific North American metro.

06Вопросы
Часто задаваемые вопросы
Which provider has more locations?
FDC Servers, by a wide margin: 23 locations spanning Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific and LATAM, against dedicated servers in 11 countries (ten European plus the United States) and VPS in 7 locations for X-ZoneServers. 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 Xeon servers are typically online within an hour of order and EPYC builds can take up to 14 days, 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, with 'from' prices published for 10 Gbps ($199/month) and 100 Gbps ($1,500/month). 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 each of its tiers published on the site and no overage charge inside a tier.

08Правовая информация
Disclosure, method and limits
We are one of the providers compared
This page is published by X-ZoneServers (X ZONE IT SRL, 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.
