When I first started to look for a free…

When I first started to look for a free hosting service for my new bot, Pylex was amongst a few options that caught my eye. Unlike others which require people to complete Linkvertise or pass some adlinks for "coins" which then will be used for making a server, Pylex only requires me to log into the dashboard every 20 days or so (it's 20 days at the time of this review). I did not expect a free bot hosting service to offer such a great free service, with 1 vcores and 256MB of RAM completely free of charge, which is way more than what a small bot needed. Although the uptime is not that high (considering that the hosting was made on real hardware rather than VPSes), the owner (David, 17 at the time of thid review) is cool and more friendly than any owner I've ever seen before. He fixes nodes problems in a matter of hours. Pylex also has a paid plan, which is very cheap comparing to other hostings. Overall, 5 stars, no comments! (P/s: this review was not paid for, this is honest)

Great bot hosting for free and control!

Honest review from a pylex user

Hello, I'm Melo. I've been using Pylex for about 6 months now, and I can confirm that both the free and premium services are incredible. The free server does experience some downtime, but considering it's free, it's one of the best hosts available, if not the best, in my opinion. The latency is around 130-150 ms, which is very good. There are some rate limits, but nothing too restrictive. The premium service is perfect: no rate limits, no downtime, 20 ms latency, and it's very affordable. I highly recommend using this service!

Good, but…

First, I think this is a great project. It has a very friendly owner (I love to read his announcements/updates) and it‘s free. But there are a few problems so I can sadly only give 3 stars. First Problem is, that there are many ratelimits, I think everyday at least one. Second is the uptime in general. The servers are down very often. Today my server is down for more than 5 Hours. On top of that is the bad ping to discord. For me on an RO free node it is 190 to 200ms. The us nodes were great (are now reserved for premium) but this is very bad. You can say: „It‘s free“ but I don‘t think the RO premium nodes have a better ping. The free servers maybe have a 22 or 23/7 uptime but not 24/7. I think It‘s better if you buy a VPS for 1€. Also I think there are better free hosts. Yeah Pylexnodes is big and I don‘t want to say it‘s bad but in my opinion there are better alternatives. I‘m now a member of Pylexnodes since over a Year and I don‘t think it got better. If you just need a free host, go ahead and use it, but not a full recommendation.

Edit:
I appreciate it, that you took that time to reply.
I think it is important that even free users know the pros and cons of this host. When you have the solar infrastructure and ups for a stable electricity, I will surely edit this review. And yes, there are free hosts without rate limits. I know how ratelimits work and I think they are sometimes really anoying. If you don‘t want reviews about free hosting here, you need a different Domain to really separate. Also on discord, there isn‘t really a place for reviews, so this is the only option. I really hope this gets one of the best free and paid hosts at some point because I really like the project. I really like to talk about this (I could do that for hours) because I also am very interested in servers (I don‘t have that much money). And yeah the 5 hours downtime isn‘t normal, but it happened. Also I noticed that the panel isn‘t the fastest.

Reply from Pylex

Thank you for your honest opinion! I'm David, the only guy working on this project.

We love hearing feedback from our users, whether it's a good one or a bad one, yours seems to have a little bit of everything!

Since this project is currently only managed by a single person, it might be quite hard to keep over 4,000 free 24/7 active servers stable. I'm looking forward to make this the #1 Hosting Service one day, and you'll live to see that 👊

Our Trustpilot page is mostly for our paid service opinions, not for the free infrastructure, and that's because I feel like it's not the right time to publicly ask our our free users for opinions. I am certainly aware that this needs far more improvements and I'm really willing to dedicate most of my free time to improve this project, it really has potential all thanks to you - our users!

For new users reading this review, I can assure you that our free service doesn't usually stay down for 5 hours each and every day, and ping-wise, we've had about 30-40ms latency for all our free users until a few weeks ago. I've just recently started integrated owned infrastructure in Romania which is wayyy cheaper to maintain than the one based in the US, but is a bit further away from Discord's Datacenter.

A solar infrastructure is also under construction & an UPS will be bought in the following days to completely get rid of the frequent downtimes mentioned in this review.

Regarding the frequent rate limits, unfortunately there's no way to stop that. You'll meet them on every free hosting and that's due to many users using the same IP address, some of them even abusing - If you want to read more regarding Discord's rate limits, you can feel free to check out https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/rate-limits

On our premium service we don't keep a lot of bots running and there's 0 abuse, therefore no rate limits, so this doesn't apply on that side of the service.

I will look forward to push our infrastructure in top tier datacenters one day & you'll see even better latency as a free user.

For the premium users, we've really had over 99.9% uptime in the past 15 months, so if you're looking to help this project expand even further, you can feel free to support us by buying one of these!

Was really pleased writing this review, I really love honest opinions from our users, but please keep the free infrastructure opinions on Discord as this page is mostly dedicated for our premium users experience.

Best regards,
David!

it is a really good site for discord…

it is a really good site for discord bots mostly, i really like how it stays always up without any kind of payment other than renew the servers every once in a while, i only had to do a bit of modify to the files since i'm using an old version of node.js for coding, but at the end i managed to get my bot online, thanks to everyone who helped making this web site

Top-tier Discord Bot Hosting – Flawless 10/10

PylexNodes.net, aka Pylex, earns a solid 10/10 from me. Their support is top-notch, security is tight, and speed is blazing fast. I opted for their Discord bot hosting on the Tier 3 monthly plan, and it’s been flawless. If you’re after reliable, secure, and speedy hosting, PylexNodes.net is the way to go.

Pylex has been such a great website for hosting my discord bot. It is quick, works like a charm, and best of all it has free and cheap plans! Definitely recommend using Pylex for hosting bots or Minecraft servers!

Excellent Customer Service

Excellent personalized customer support, First time I bought was december 2023, pylex tailored me to a perfect plan for a VERY affordable price

The same today, 5th april 2024, didn't have money on paypal, but they accepted crypto payment too, also very easy, nothing but smooth sailing, not a single hiccup

Probably the best customer support I've ever received in my life
