Conclusion
Our simple test showed that the server works well. It consistently ran at a speed of 197.0MB/s across three checks. When we tested the server from different places worldwide, it uploaded fastest in Nanjing, China (112.79 Mbps) and Singapore (114.25 Mbps). The download speeds were also top-notch, hitting the highest in Nanjing (126.05 Mbps) and Los Angeles, US (128.01 Mbps), although there was quite a delay in Asia. Hong Kong, however, didn’t do as well.
We also ran the Yabs Performance Bench test, which checks how the server handles a mix of reading and writing tasks. The server scored similarly for both, showing steady speeds across different tasks. In total, it managed speeds of 196.23 MB/s.
On the Geekbench 6 test, the server scored 1417 for a single core and 2397 for multiple cores. Results can vary depending on the server’s setup and what you’re asking it to do, but these tests give us a good overview of what the server can handle.
The Zenlayer Germany Frankfurt Basic Compute Shared vCPU VPS Server is a strong option for companies that need a reliable server that works well globally. It did well in all our tests, proving it can handle many tasks with good power and storage. Plus, it’s great for connecting with users worldwide. While there might be room for improvement in places like Hong Kong, this server is a solid choice for any business looking for a mix of performance, storage, and global access.
