Does Hetzner has any proper competitor somewhere, with similar power/price ratio? Especially interested in some on the US side of the pond. They seem to be a go-to company for everyone that wants to host stuff on his/her own.

I do not have a server with them, have never used them, am not associated with them, etc, but one I keep seeing coming up in the US is http://www.servermania.com/ http://www.servermania.com/ - it's still not quite as a cheap as Hetzner though (of who I'm a happy user).

There aren't very many trust-worthy hosts that come close to Hetzner in the US market. I use WebNX, and love them. They have a particular west coast focus (first major location out of LA). Their prices are a bit higher than Hetzner, but they provide an amazing service, have a solid network, and the prices are great; plus they'll do any custom setup you need. They frequently have deals on WebhostingTalk. Check out Versaweb: http://versaweb.com/dedicated.php http://versaweb.com/dedicated.php You can get a E5-1650v2 with 32gb of ram and 50tb of bandwidth for $139 (no setup). They're a quality host, and their network is very fast. Reliable Servers / Constant.com have some great prices and deals from time to time. Their network is great. They're comparable with Servermania mentioned by another post (Servermania is out of Buffalo; Constant is out of New Jersey, the DuPont Fabros datacenter). ReliableSite.net is pretty great: http://www.reliablesite.net/ http://www.reliablesite.net/ They're out of the same datacenter as Constant.com mentioned previously. Fast network, good prices. The only one of these that comes close to Hetzner pricing is Versaweb however.

Do OVH count as one? They do have DC in Canada.

Looking at their VPS offers, digitalocean is about the same.
