Back in 2021, when CloudMita Technologies acquired a web platform running on a Contabo storage server with CentOS, we were excited about the growth ahead. The platform had over 20,000 daily visitors, which was no small achievement.

But soon, reality hit us hard. The site constantly experienced downtime. Pages would load slowly or crash, and as CentOS reached its end-of-life, the issues only got worse. At one point, we began questioning whether staying with Contabo was the right decision.

The Cost of Downtime

Those downtimes didn’t just affect our site — they affected our entire business:

We lost revenue daily whenever the platform went offline.
Our users were frustrated and trust began to erode.
We spent too much on technicians, constantly trying to troubleshoot instead of growing.
Our team was stressed out, always putting out fires instead of focusing on the future.

It was a difficult period.

The Turning Point With Contabo

Instead of walking away, we decided to give Contabo another shot — but with a better approach. After consulting experts and doing deep research, we realized that our problem wasn’t Contabo itself, but the type of server we were running.

So, we upgraded to a Contabo Cloud NVMe server with:

24GB RAM
1.2TB SSD (NVMe storage)
8 CPU cores

That single move changed everything.

The Results After Migration

Stability Restored: The platform now runs smoothly with consistent uptime.
Double Earnings: With stability came trust, more engagement, and significantly higher revenue.
*Reduced Costs: No more spending heavily on technicians to fix recurring crashes.
Peace of Mind: Our team can now focus on scaling and innovation.

Our Testimony with Contabo Cloud server

Today, we can proudly say: Contabo works — if you choose the right infrastructure. Moving to their NVMe cloud servers showed us the better side of Contabo, and it has been one of the best business decisions we’ve ever made.

At CloudMita Technologies, this experience fuels our mission: helping other businesses avoid costly mistakes and deploy the right infrastructure from day one.

If you’re struggling with downtimes or slow servers, don’t rush to abandon your provider just yet. Sometimes, the solution is as simple as choosing the right server type.
