REAL PLAYER REVIEWS
Why Players Choose Nodecraft for Project Zomboid Server Hosting
My Go-To Game Server HostIn the past I've tried many hosting services. Nodecraft stands out to me because of its great control panels and its lightning fast support. I've personally used Nodecraft Servers for Eco, Minecraft, Terraria and Project Zomboid - each heavily modded - and never had a problem. Whenever I had a question, support stepped up immediately to help. 5/5 would host a server here again anytime :)
Great GUI and staff response.By far the best gui and staff experience I have used for minecraft server hosting (I have tried ALOT of them including all the most common ones and a few more not so well known.) The price itself is fair for what you're getting and I have had next to no lag even running large mod-packs such as all the mods. The quick switch feature is also really well made. I have recently come back to this site after using a few others and the new Lite servers are an amazing deal for what you get. I'd highly recommend it for close friends servers or modpacks. I have now been using them on and off for nearly 3 years.
Nodecraft : Best multi-games hostingNodecraft is a great server host for gaming, and probably the best one if you want to play multiple games on the same server. The prices are quite good and you can freely and easily switch between a lot of popular game. The server UI is also easy to use with all the necessary options (mods included). Lastly their support service is stellar: the very few specific problems I had where solved in a few hours by a really nice and quick support team.
