Brother Server VPS review
A €5 monthly VPS pairs unmetered traffic with Linux or Windows options.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Brother Server VPS is a cloud virtual private server hosted in the provider’s Netherlands facility near Amsterdam. Its X2 plan targets people running websites, applications or other workloads who want a low monthly entry price and a choice of Linux or Windows. At €5 per month, it includes 1 vCPU, 2 GB of memory and 40 GB of NVMe storage, alongside unmetered traffic on a 1 Gbps uplink. That makes the offer straightforward to assess, though the entry configuration is modest and is better suited to smaller workloads than resource-intensive services.
The service’s operating system choice and optional management help define its fit. Customers can select Linux or Windows during ordering, and can add assistance with OS management, updates, monitoring and backups. A browser-based remote console provides another way to access the server. Network-edge DDoS detection and mitigation is included among the advertised features, while TOTP-based two-factor authentication is available for accounts. These features may appeal to buyers who want some operational help without choosing a fully managed service by default.
The published X2 price is €5 monthly, and the provider says monthly VPS pricing excludes 21% VAT. The location is described as near Amsterdam, but the precise VPS datacenter location is not identified. Brother Server lists ticket, email and phone support, documentation, and 24/7 support. Buyers prioritizing a low-cost VPS with unmetered traffic, OS choice and optional management may find the stated offer aligned with their needs. Those needing more than the X2’s 1 vCPU and 2 GB memory, or requiring a precisely specified datacenter location, should compare alternatives before choosing.
