What is Hetzner's uptime?

Over the last 90 days, Hetzner reported 99.06% uptime on its official status page. That figure is calculated from the public incident timeline at https://status.hetzner.com — each minute of degraded, partial-outage, or major-outage status counts against the total. Sign up to Pingoru free to see Hetzner's uptime history rolling forward in real time.

Has Hetzner had outages in 2026?

Yes — Hetzner has had 113 incidents reported on its official status page so far in 2026. The full timeline (start times, durations, components affected) is shown above on this page. Pingoru re-checks the status page every 5 minutes so the count stays current.

When was the last Hetzner outage?

The most recent Hetzner incident was "Cloud Leaf fault hel1-cloud1-leaf9", which started on July 29, 2026 and was resolved on July 30, 2026. Pingoru captured this directly from https://status.hetzner.com. See the full incident card above for affected components and the update timeline.

How often does Hetzner have outages?

Based on the last 90 days, Hetzner averages 37.7 reported incidents per month on its official status page. Pingoru tracks each one with start time, duration, severity, and affected components — so you can see the pattern at a glance instead of digging through the vendor's archive.

Where is Hetzner's status page?

Hetzner's official status page is https://status.hetzner.com. Pingoru polls it every 5 minutes and renders the same data here, alongside every other cloud or SaaS provider you depend on — so you can spot multi-vendor incidents (e.g. AWS + Stripe + Cloudflare degrading at the same minute) without flipping between tabs.

Is Hetzner down right now?

Hetzner has degraded performance. Pingoru checks the official status page every 5 minutes and flips this headline the moment Hetzner reports a change. Current status is based on 87 tracked services.

How does Pingoru know if Hetzner is down?

We read https://status.hetzner.com directly, using Hetzner's own status page. If the vendor reports an incident, you see it within one check cycle — not after someone manually marks the page as down.

Where can I get notified when Hetzner has an outage?

Create a free Pingoru account and add Hetzner as a monitor. You can filter to specific services, pick severity thresholds, and route alerts via email, Slack, Discord, or a webhook.

Hetzner's status page says the service is up, but I'm having issues — what's wrong?

Three common reasons: • A real Hetzner incident that hasn't been acknowledged on their public status page yet — vendor status pages are updated manually and typically lag the first customer reports by 10–30 minutes. • A regional or account-scoped issue affecting a subset of customers — these rarely trigger a global status-page change. • A local problem: ISP / DNS / your own software. Try reproducing from a mobile data connection and from a different network to isolate. If you suspect a real Hetzner issue that isn't reflected yet, contact their support to escalate. Subscribing here means you get the alert the moment they do post an update.

Where does Pingoru get the official Hetzner status?

We use Hetzner's own status page at https://status.hetzner.com. Nothing is read in a way the vendor hasn't explicitly made public — we use the same data their own dashboard uses. So our data is as accurate as what you'd see loading the status page yourself, but rolled into one dashboard alongside every other service you depend on.

What does "Degraded" mean?

Hetzner is reporting degraded performance — services are up but slower than usual, or a subset of requests is failing.

  Due to the continuing high demand and the limited availability of required hardware components, the provisioning of cloud servers at our locations is currently only possible to a limited extent. Given this situation, we are currently required to restrict the creation of new cloud servers for both new customers and some of our existing customers. The selection of affected existing customers is made at random. Unfortunately, it is not possible to individually influence or prioritize specific requests. We are continuously monitoring the situation and working intensively to expand capacity.

  Phishing is a serious digital security threat, which causes billions of dollars in damages every year. It’s a risk that both everyday users and companies should not underestimate. There are currently phishing emails circulating in the name of Hetzner. You can recognise these emails by the following features: Sense of urgency: Be careful about any emails with subject lines that ask you to do something urgently, for example, subject likes, “Last reminder: accept the new data protection policies”, “Urgent: renew your domain xyz or it will be locked”, or “Your contract will end soon”. Fake sender: Look out for emails with fake sender names like “HETZNER”, “HetznerSupportTeam”, “Hetzner Online GmbH”. The sender is also fake if the email address does not end with “@hetzner.com”. Links that look real: In the email texts, there are links that look real at first, but that will take you to fake Hetzner login pages. These fake login pages will try to get you to enter your Hetzner login details or your credit card details so they can steal them. If you think an email is fake, do NOT open the email at all. And if you accidentally do open the email, do NOT click on any links. If you get an email like this, delete it immediately. If you already entered your username and/or password on site that you think was fake, you should immediately change your Hetzner password at https://accounts.hetzner.com. To better protect your account against hackers, we strongly recommend that you activate two-factor authentication (2FA) for your Hetzner Account: https://docs.hetzner.com/accounts-panel/accounts/two-factor-authentication/ Please do not call our telephone support about phishing-related issues.
