4Netplayers
Pros
- + 150+ supported games with free switching and new titles added within 24 hours of release
- + DDoS protection included free on every product — Corero hardware filtering, no server shutdown during attacks
- + Automatic backups (incremental + full, off-system storage) with self-service backup download
- + Unlimited Gaming plan at EUR 14.99/month: 100 slots, 8GB RAM, 25GB mod storage, no branding
- + Quality hardware and facility design: Intel/AMD with ECC RAM, NVMe SSDs, dual power feeds, UPS and diesel backup
Cons
- - Slot-based plans publish no CPU, RAM, or bandwidth figures — resource transparency is weak
- - No published uptime SLA with credits despite a solid redundancy story
- - Game servers start at EUR 11.98/month on the vendor's own pages, above the cheapest slot-based competitors
- - Narrow product set: no VPS, storage, or GPU products alongside game hosting
- - Backup retention and restore management stay your responsibility beyond the automatic copies
G-Portal
