Recent price hike isn't so great but… Recent price hike isn't so great but the user panel is the best I've seen anywhere. Gportal could learn from it, vs their lagging and non-friendly mod list system. Really wish you weren't forced into 60 slot servers, I'd gladly pay for a 10 slot option if provided, obviously at a lower cost.

Great host but performance issues Server hosting here has been great with faster restarts than I've had with other hosts. It's way easier to handle mods (for Ark) here than my last host. My only issue is the servers don't seem to be happy a lot of the time even with only a small group of players playing on them. I've had weird performance spikes that have ended up with players teleporting all over the map and my server shutting itself off due to RAM limitations (despite somehow only 1% of members encountering this). I don't consider what I'm running to be beefy at all so I'm surprised the host cannot handle it.

Lots of features & Good prices There are a lot of hosting options out there for Ark, but I've had the most positive experience with Arkservers by far. Best bang for your buck in terms of features. The interface is very user-friendly, backups are cheap, mods are updated automatically, and the RAM cap isn't obscenely low at 12GB. When you get a minimum of 60 player slots at the current rate of $18, you really can't beat this host.

Long term solution for Ark, still a quality experience. I've used Arkservers.io in the past for hosting my game, and I came back due to quality customer service then. I've had nothing but good luck with it now, the server went right up in a few minutes and I've had lag-free play in the days since. Quick access to workshop mods is a major plus, as is the expandable backup options, and the ability to download/upload things to save copies locally.

Been around the block and made my home here Over the years of playing Ark: Survival Evolved I've tried several server sites, from the cheapest to the downright criminal. Arkservers.io is by far the most user friendly site at a decent cost. I've never had to bother the admins because my game isn't loading or there's a mod issue, nor have the servers ever been down for anything other than their routine maintenance. I've recommended it to several friends that have since migrated from other sites that have crashing issues or terrible mod management. Can't wait to get a Minecraft server which is coming soon.
