Is a Tallinn VPS a good fit for an e-residency company?
Yes. Many e-residents run their Estonian company remotely and want infrastructure in the same jurisdiction. A Tallinn server gives you an Estonian IP address, keeps data within the EU and provides a stable platform for websites, client portals and SaaS products. Because you can pay by card, PayPal or cryptocurrency and manage everything online, there is no need to visit Estonia. Your accountant and service providers can also access internal tools hosted on the server through a VPN or secure web interface, keeping business records in one place.
Can I reach Finnish users quickly from Tallinn?
Yes. Tallinn and Helsinki are connected by several submarine cables across the Gulf of Finland, and round-trip times are typically only a few milliseconds, closer than many Finnish cities are to each other. That makes an Estonian VPS a practical choice for services aimed at both countries, such as e-commerce sites, booking platforms and SaaS tools. You can serve Estonian and Finnish users from one server, with separate language versions of your site, rather than maintaining two locations. For latency-sensitive applications, test from both cities before committing.
How are IPv6 addresses assigned?
Every Tallinn VPS includes IPv6 addresses in addition to its IPv4 address. They are configured on your server during provisioning or can be added on request. You can use them for websites, APIs, mail servers and containers, each with its own public address. Many Estonian and Nordic mobile networks support IPv6, so dual-stack connectivity improves reachability. If you run Docker or Kubernetes, IPv6 makes it easier to expose services without complex port mapping. Reverse DNS for IPv6 can also be set on request.
What is the provisioning time?
Estonian servers are usually delivered within three to twenty-four hours after payment, and often considerably faster. Once ready, you receive an email with login details and the IP addresses assigned to your VM. Operating systems and control panels selected at checkout are installed before handover. Provisioning runs every day, including weekends, so you can place an order whenever it suits you. If you need the server at a specific time for a demo or launch, let us know in the order notes.
Can I use the RAID10 HDD plans for off-site backups?
Yes, and it is one of their most popular uses. HDD plans provide large amounts of storage at a lower price than NVMe, making them ideal for nightly backups of servers hosted elsewhere, including other ServerSlot locations. Tools such as restic, BorgBackup and rsync work well over SSH, and the 1 Gbps port with unmetered traffic lets large backups complete quickly. RAID10 protects against single-disk failure, but you should still encrypt backups and keep a second copy in another location for full protection.
Do you permit VPN servers in Estonia?
Yes, lawful VPN use is allowed. KVM virtualization supports TUN/TAP, so OpenVPN and WireGuard work out of the box. Estonian companies often use a VPS to let a distributed team reach private dashboards safely, while developers route traffic through Tallinn to test services as Estonian users see them. Unmetered traffic means VPN connections do not generate extra charges. Activities such as spamming, attacking other networks or distributing illegal content are prohibited and lead to suspension under our acceptable use policy.
Can I install Windows Server on a Tallinn VPS?
Yes. You can pick Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019 or Windows 10 Pro, or any of the Linux distributions listed on this page. Windows runs as a native KVM guest, so .NET services, IIS sites, Remote Desktop sessions and Windows-only business tools behave as expected. Windows is priced the same as Linux here. Bigger teams on Remote Desktop should step up a tier or two. Estonian firms often keep a small Windows instance alongside their Linux application servers for legacy desktop tools, and both sit on the same fast Tallinn network.
Is technical support part of the plan?
Support covers the infrastructure beneath your operating system: hardware replacement, hard reboots, operating-system reinstalls and network investigations. Inside the VM, you manage software, updates, security and applications. Drawing the line there keeps Tallinn prices low and leaves your environment entirely in your hands. Tickets are handled around the clock, and even if a problem lies inside your server, our engineers will usually suggest a direction or a relevant guide so you are never left without help. Founders who are new to server administration often find that a short ticket saves hours of searching.
