Great Experience

I trialed this server for a while as I was looking for a good option to recommend friends in the NA Region, it performed extremely well and is the best performing host of which I trialed.

Some information if you're interested
Chunky average with some world gen mods on fabric: 43cps (extremely good as I bought their lowest end plan which only came with 1core, I suspect it'd reach 80-90s with c2me and more cores)

Average TPS with 70-90 fabric mods and 4-5 players: 19.98 (Extremely good)

As I got the lowest end plan you can expect more impressive results going with the higher options which don't cost much more.

Hello Makaya,

First off, the use of profanity in a review isn't the greatest look on your end. You should also always provide an example when trying to prove a point.

Second, our services start at $1.00/gb for a 3900X/5900X and go up to $1.75/gb for a 7900X/7950X. This is no way overpriced, as some providers use OVH and sell that for $5/gb.

Our support team is awesome, not sure how their bad. Hunter, Jack, Kade, and the rest of the team are all amazing people, and reply really fast (Always 15 minutes or under, unless it's past 8PM CST). We try to offer the best support possible, and no one has had an issue with our support.

Again, provide more evidence to prove your point. If we're a bad company and you wouldn't recommend us, explain what situation happened, and why you don't recommend us. Calling us a bad company without evidence to back up your claims isn't really a good argument.

This review has been reported to Trustpilot, as this is unacceptable behavior.

Thanks,
Henry, CEO

Amazing experience

Amazing experience
Sour host is an amazing option when it comes to any sort of hosting. They have some of the best machines money can buy but just $1/gb (not including promotional codes) I've never experienced any lag or any downtime at all (the review claiming it got ddosed is false, no one else experienced that) . That staff are incredibly professional and helpful, it's just the only option when it comes to Minecraft hosting. 5 stars, if you have a small or large budget but want no lag, sour host is for you.

Don’t use

When my minecraft server started it was extremely laggy. I have had better experiences with minehut. When my server did start to run fine after 3 weeks. The server was ddosed shutting it down instantly and I only got it back up after 2 weeks. Overall I don’t recommend this host to anyone as there are better options out there.

We've been DDoS'd once, and it was back up almost instantly. There has been no downtime for more than 5 minutes. I would love to contact you via Discord and look into this 2 weeks of downtime, if you can add me on "realhenryw".
