XITENS VPS review
A €10/month KVM VPS with custom ISO support and optional backups.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
XITENS VPS offers Linux, Windows and Forex virtual private servers hosted in Amsterdam, with listed uses including websites, webshops, business applications, trading software, development and test environments, and email servers. It may suit developers, entrepreneurs, businesses or traders who want control over a cloud VPS rather than a specified managed service. Linux servers use KVM virtualization, and Linux access is available through SSH or noVNC.
The KVM VPS X1 costs €10 per month on monthly billing. Its listed allocation is 1 CPU core, 1 GB memory, 25 GB SSD storage and 1,000 GB data traffic; optional backups are available. Prices exclude 21% VAT according to the site footer. The provider also lists Linux templates and multiple Linux distributions, alongside Windows and Forex VPS offerings. The entry configuration is a modest starting point, so buyers should compare its listed resources with their workload requirements before choosing it.
Server control is handled through a panel for starting, stopping and reinstalling instances, while custom ISO installation support provides another route for choosing an operating system image. The provider describes its storage as a high-availability Ceph cluster. The Linux VPS page says its Amsterdam datacenter is ISO 27001:2013 certified; that is a facility-level statement, not a company-wide certification. Choose XITENS if Amsterdam hosting, KVM access and custom ISO support matter. Those seeking a managed VPS should consider another provider, as no managed option is specified.
