True to their philosophy

I've not had a chance to test ServerMiner's support because they really have lived up to their philosophy. "Always here to help even though you'll most likely be fine as our servers are just that good ;)"
A little bit of homework on how to set up my own server with a custom mod pack, and away we go! This service is easy and intuitive to use. Super happy.

Serverminer: Affordable, Helpful, and Durable

Serverminer is an affordable minecraft server hosting service with amazing support staff and good specs. I run a fairly small but consistent server that often times switches between vanilla w/ plugins and large modpacks. A 6 gb ram package is only $30 a month, which is enough to run some of the heaviest modpacks in my experiences. From their FAQ, the servers run either an Intel E5 or AMD Ryzen hardware, which has always done my servers justice. At a cursory glance, it may actually seem pretty expensive compared to other services like Shockbyte, but the ease of access, excellent server quality, and good support are worth more than it seems.

If you need help configuring a custom modpack or fixing issues with plugins, you can pay an extra $10 a month to get help for anything you need. From what I've noticed, it's a very good deal, but it does come across as them trying to nickle and dime you. Support will always respond within a day or two, telling you what they did to fix it and if you should do anything further.

Never has the server itself lagged or crashed because of something that the players did. In fact, three of my players are racing to the default world border at max speed using modded clients and the lowest the TPS has ever been was 19.54.

Some features are lacking though, like how paper spigot, spigot, and bukkit dont automatically update to the newest versions when they're available. However, ServerMiner support is more than willing to update your server for you, keeping everything in your world intact in the process.

I've hosted 2 different servers there, one ran for 3 months and our current one has ran for 7 months now. I always find myself going back to ServerMiner because of its decent prices and ease of use.

Thanks for the in-depth review Matthew! Great to hear such positive feedback. You'll be glad to hear that we are in the process of automating Paper installs which will allow you to instantly install any version of Paper. Once that is complete, we'd like to do the same with Spigot and Craftbukkit.

Great hosting and customer service

I got their services for 6 months and I've never experienced any lag or issue on regard of their service. I had a payment issue on my side, but they helped me quickly and it's solved now. What can I do but recommend them?

Hi Lukas, glad to hear that you're enjoying ServerMiner! You'll receive a new invoice roughly 5 days before your server is due to expire. If you pay this invoice then another month will be added onto your server's renewal period. Feel free to get in touch if you have any further questions: https://serverminer.com/contact

Great Service

Working with this team for the past few months has been great. When I set up my server I subscribed to the plugin/addon assistance and the service was fantastic. They have helped me with all my questions and responded within a day with helpful information and links everything they directed me to. 100% would recommend.

Amazing!

ServerMiner is great! I am hosting a server on it right now and I would highly recommend hosting a server on ServerMiner too! Once I installed a plugin incorrectly and caused not being able to perform some commands so I sent a support ticket to them and they replied only 1-2 hours later!

I was going to cancel the subscription because my server didn't want to work because of one of my mods and I used my big brain to figure out that it was the client side mods that I forgot to remove from thing so yes 5 stars good service

The best I ever had!

I'm really happy for that I'm using your hosting which is the best what I ever had. I tried a lot of hosting services in my country before ServerMiner and every was... just terrible... bad performace, bad support and price also.

Here I finally found great management approach, great control panel, great team and a vision of great future for this project.

So just keep going in what you are doing because you are doing it well ;))

Just asking a question about the servers. Can you go afk on it and are the server on 24/7? Please answer. Just want to know. I think it’s a good service.

Hi Gavin, it's possible to go AFK on your server for as long as you like. If you'd like to kick players which go AFK then it's possible to install a plugin to do this. The server also runs 24/7 365 days a year, completely independently to your computer. Feel free to get in touch via: https://serverminer.com/contact if you have any other questions :-)
