A flexible bare-metal option with low entry pricing and multiple server ranges.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Scaleway Dedibox provides dedicated bare-metal servers for startups, small and medium-sized businesses, and enterprises that need control over physical hosting infrastructure. Its lineup spans Start, Pro, Core, Store, and GPU ranges, with options for Linux, Windows, Plesk, and virtualization operating systems. The service is managed through the Dedibox console, with API support for server management. Buyers can choose from HDD or SSD storage, public IPv4 addressing, and networking configurations suited to different workloads.
Pricing starts at €4.99 per server per month on the Start plan, billed monthly, before tax. The published Start highlights include 4 GB RAM configurations, HDD or SSD storage options, and 250 Mbps bandwidth on the cheapest listed configurations. Higher server ranges add room to select different hardware profiles, while eligible servers offer bandwidth options up to 25 Gbit/s. The product is paid rather than free, so it fits buyers who already need dedicated hardware rather than those evaluating hosting with a no-cost tier.
Dedibox’s infrastructure features cover private RPN networking, failover IPv4 address options, DDoS protection options, and 100 GB or 750 GB FTP backup options. Its platform support includes web access, Linux, Windows, and an API, with servers available in Scaleway’s Paris and Amsterdam datacenters. Choose Dedibox if you want configurable bare-metal hosting, multiple hardware families, and operational features such as backups and private networking. Buyers seeking a free plan, or a service centered on a different hosting model, should consider alternatives instead.
