Fragnet
Pros
- + 21 locations across 17 countries with DDoS filtering in every location
- + High-clock-speed (4+ GHz) hardware and NVMe storage on every plan; resource-based pricing with no player caps
- + Esports-grade track record: official host for EA, DayZ, ESL Play, Farming Simulator, Esportal, and servers at DreamHack
- + Included remote off-server backups, scheduled tasks, MySQL, browser file access and one-click CurseForge/Modrinth/FTB modpacks
- + Operating since 2010 under Swedish registration, now backed by tournament operator PGL
Cons
- - Premium pricing versus budget game hosts — cost is not the pitch
- - Thin public documentation for advanced configuration
- - No published uptime SLA and only a 3-day money-back window
- - Resource packages only — no bare metal or bring-your-own-image
- - Recent ownership change (PGL, January 2025) means roadmap and pricing uncertainty
PingPerfect
Pros
- + Game switching without cancelling: one subscription covers any of ~250 supported games
- + Every plan includes nightly offsite backups, DDoS mitigation, ~100 GB NVMe and free web hosting
- + 48-hour free trial plus 48-hour money-back lets you measure real ping before committing
- + 24/7 support with an advertised sub-ten-minute average response and 1,500+ KB articles
- + Clear per-game pricing on popular titles (Valheim from $9.99, Rust from $14.21, Minecraft from $17.62)
Cons
- - No published uptime SLA or latency guarantee — only the 48-hour refund window
- - Footprint is US-heavy: 9 US locations but just Singapore and Sydney for all of APAC
- - Spec disclosure is partial: no per-plan core counts, no bandwidth allowance published
- - Some titles only reveal pricing at checkout; small company means service depends on a ~10-person team
