Customer Reviews:

Still on the fence? Read why customers say we're the best 7d2d server host!

I have been a Nodecraft customer for a couple of years and have never had a negative interaction with their support. For this most recent issue, an update to 7 Days to Die left my server in an unplayable state and the customer service agent that answered my ticket was able to explain the problem and recommend a path forward that makes me able to play again.
"The best server company in the community. Nodecraft supplies the community with some of the best servers that you could imagine. The NodePanel is very easy to get use. The support service is so fast, and is always able to help out in any situation. The servers run so well, that a modded server can start within about 30 seconds. Whenever you need a game server, you can always count on Nodecraft to host it with the best performance imaginable."
