Three Zagreb locations · KVM · up to 10 Gbps
Zagreb VPS Hosting for Precise Croatian Targeting
Europe's infrastructure is modern almost everywhere, but sometimes being near Croatia is not the same as being in Croatia. You may need local hosting to build trust with Croatian customers, to signal to search engines that your site or app is localized, or simply to browse and work as if you were sitting in Zagreb. In each of those cases, a server physically located inside the country is the reliable answer.
Our Croatian VPS servers run in a Tier III data center in Zagreb, offering the lowest latency and ping times we can provide across the country. The facility has modern networking and plenty of customization options, and our virtual machines run on KVM, the kernel-based hypervisor that gives each instance its own isolated operating system.
The original Croatian range connects each instance through a 2 Gbps internet connection with SSD storage and a bandwidth allowance matched to the plan. We have since added two NVMe ranges in Zagreb: one on a 1 Gbps port with unlimited bandwidth, and one on a 10 Gbps port, also with unlimited bandwidth, for projects that need maximum throughput.
Being local also helps with search. Croatian users search in Croatian and expect results from businesses that serve them directly. A Zagreb IP address, fast responses and content in the local language all reinforce that your site belongs in the Croatian market, which is hard to achieve from a server in Frankfurt or Amsterdam.
You can run Linux at no license cost, or Windows with a 180-day trial license, and our support team can perform hard reboots or reinstalls whenever you need them. Our focus is hosting that fits your specific goals, so your project performs well against competitors in the Croatian market and beyond.
Croatia's Place on the Adriatic Internet Map
Croatia stretches in a crescent from the Pannonian plain around Zagreb and Osijek down the Adriatic coast to Split and Dubrovnik. It borders Slovenia, Hungary, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, and it has been part of the European Union since 2013. In 2023 it joined both the eurozone and the Schengen area, which makes it one of the most integrated EU markets in Southeast Europe.
Zagreb, the capital and largest city, is where most of the country's data-center capacity and business headquarters are concentrated. A server here is close to Ljubljana, Budapest, Graz, Vienna, Sarajevo and Belgrade, so it serves both Croatian users and much of the former Yugoslav region with short network paths.
The Croatian economy leans heavily on tourism, with millions of visitors each summer along the coast. That creates steady demand for booking engines, apartment rental sites, tour operators, restaurant ordering systems and travel apps, all of which benefit from fast local hosting during the peak season.
Croatia also has a respected technology scene, including well-known names in electric vehicles and cloud communications, plus many smaller software firms in Zagreb, Split and Rijeka. Developers working there often prefer a nearby server for testing, staging and production, which keeps their tools responsive and their data in the EU.
HR DC I Zagreb NVMe on a 1 Gbps Port
HR DC I is the balanced NVMe line for Zagreb. Every plan combines ECC memory, NVMe storage, unlimited bandwidth and a 1 Gbps port, and memory is generous relative to core count, which suits applications that hold a lot of data in RAM.
The entry plan offers 2 vCores, 2 GB ECC and 40 GB NVMe for $21.99 a month. It is Linux only and handles a small website, a monitoring node or a private VPN. The 2-core plan with 4 GB and 60 GB at $37.99 adds Windows, then the 4-core options with 6 GB at $59.99 and 8 GB at $84.99 take you into production territory for shops, CMS platforms and small databases.
Further up, 6 vCores with 10 GB cost $109.99 and 8 vCores with 12 GB cost $149.99. These are practical choices for agencies hosting many client sites, Java or .NET applications, and Windows servers running several services at once.
The top four plans scale from 10 vCores and 14 GB at $179.99 through 16 vCores and 16 GB at $219.99 and 20 vCores and 24 GB at $259.99, up to 24 vCores, 32 GB ECC and 410 GB NVMe at $299.99. That is a lot of room for analytics, multi-tenant SaaS and busy e-commerce aimed at Croatian shoppers.
HR DC II Zagreb 10 Gbps High-Core Servers
HR DC II flips the ratio: more CPU cores per dollar, NVMe storage, unlimited bandwidth and a 10 Gbps port on every plan. All ten plans support Linux and Windows at the same price, including the smallest one. This is the range behind our promise of 10,000 Mbps connectivity in Croatia.
It starts at 2 vCores, 1 GB ECC and 40 GB NVMe for $23.99, a lean instance for a VPN endpoint, a DNS resolver or a CPU-bound script. Then come 4 vCores with 2 GB at $37.99, 6 vCores with 4 GB at $52.99 and 8 vCores with 6 GB at $64.99, all useful for build agents, game servers and data processing tasks that care more about cores than memory.
The middle of the range offers 10 vCores with 8 GB and 110 GB at $80.99, 12 vCores with 10 GB at $99.99 and 14 vCores with 12 GB at $128.99. At the top, 16 vCores with 14 GB cost $165.99, while two 20-core plans offer 16 GB with 250 GB at $199.99 or 24 GB with 350 GB at $289.99.
A 10 Gbps port is especially valuable for traffic-heavy projects: file distribution, software update mirrors, VPN services with many simultaneous users and high-volume APIs. Combined with unlimited bandwidth, it means your Zagreb server is rarely the bottleneck.
HR DC III Zagreb SSD Plans on 2 Gbps
HR DC III is our original Croatian range and still the cheapest way to get a Zagreb IP. Each plan uses SSD storage on a 2 Gbps connection with a fixed monthly traffic allowance, and every plan supports both Linux and Windows.
The smallest instance offers 1 core, 1 GB RAM, 15 GB SSD and 1 TB of traffic for $14.99 a month, the starting price mentioned in our FAQ. With 2 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD and 2 TB of traffic, the next plan costs $22.99. The 2-core options give 4 GB with 45 GB SSD and 4 TB at $35.99, 6 GB with 75 GB and 6 TB at $47.99, or 8 GB with 100 GB and 10 TB at $69.99.
The largest DC III plan doubles the cores to 4 while keeping 8 GB RAM, 100 GB SSD and 10 TB of monthly traffic, for $109.99. That suits Windows desktops that run several applications at once or Linux servers hosting a handful of busy sites.
DC III is a natural home for personal VPNs, small business sites, email marketing tools and forex trading terminals, where a Croatian IP and a steady connection matter more than huge storage. If you outgrow its traffic allowance, the NVMe ranges in DC I and DC II offer unlimited bandwidth.
A Croatian VPS Built for VPN and Remote Work
Croatia is one of the few locations where we explicitly highlight VPN use. TUN/TAP is enabled on our Croatian servers, so OpenVPN, WireGuard and similar tools run without workarounds. That makes a Zagreb VPS a practical choice for a private VPN for your team, a secure gateway into company systems, or a way to browse with a Croatian IP while travelling.
Remote work is a related use case. Many users run a Windows VPS in Zagreb as a permanent desktop: log in over RDP from a laptop anywhere, open business applications, and leave long tasks running while offline. Online tutors, call-center agents, email marketers and traders all use this pattern.
Proxy servers and game servers are also among the workloads this Zagreb facility supports. Low latency to Croatian and neighboring players helps for community game servers, while a local IP helps marketers check how Croatian search results and ads look.
Whatever you run, our rules against unlicensed or illegal software apply. You can install licensed software and configure system settings freely, but abuse such as spam or attacks on other networks is not permitted. If you are unsure whether a project fits, ask support before you order.
Windows and Linux Options for Zagreb Servers
Our Croatian plans support a broad set of operating systems. On the Linux side you can choose CentOS, Fedora, Ubuntu or Debian, which together cover almost every web stack, development toolchain and container platform. Linux is free, so you pay only for the server.
Windows Server 2012, 2016 and 2019 have been available on this location, and the add-ons list includes Windows Server 2016, 2019 and 2022 and Windows 10. New Windows installations come with a 180-day trial license, giving you time to test before deciding on a permanent license. Windows is priced the same as Linux on all three ranges, with the single exception of the Linux-only entry plan in HR DC I.
Administrative access is unrestricted. Linux servers come with full root access via SSH, and Windows servers come with RDP Administrator access, so you can manage the machine like a professional, install any licensed software and change every system setting.
If you need a different OS version or a fresh start, our team can perform reinstalls and hard reboots on request. Keep your own backup of important data before asking for a reinstall.
Security and DDoS Defense in Croatia
Security is designed into the Croatian platform. Free DDoS protection filters attack traffic before it reaches your server, robust firewall configurations block unwanted access, and SSL encryption protects data in transit. These layers keep your Zagreb instance online and your users' data private around the clock.
KVM virtualization adds isolation. Each virtual server runs its own kernel, so it is completely separated from other customers on the same physical machine. That improves security, makes resource allocation more predictable and lets you choose whichever supported operating system suits your project.
The hardware underneath is modern: Intel Xeon processors paired with SSD and NVMe drives in a Tier III facility with high security and redundancy. Moving a site from older hardware to this combination usually delivers faster load times, improved reliability and a smoother experience for visitors.
Your part is to keep the software inside the VM updated, use strong credentials and SSH keys, and back up important data. With root or Administrator access you can add tools such as fail2ban, application firewalls and intrusion detection on top of our platform protections.
