Does Contabo offer Managed Serves? 

While we don't offer fully managed servers, we do offer the "Managed Server" add-on.

This add-on grants you 2 hours of technical support per month, which you can use to ask the Contabo support team for help with any server management tasks you may have. 

Please note that this add-on can only be applied to one server at a time, so if you have more that one server, you will only be able to enjoy the benefits of this add-on with the servers for which you have purchased this add-on.
