Terrible support system + Horrible for DayZ Servers
November 21, 2022

Good luck adding any kind of mods to your DayZ server with Nitrado. With how it's web interface is set up, it's virtually impossible. And forget about asking for help.Writing a support ticket, opening a live chat, etc. will just result in someone sending you the same link to the same Nitrado "wiki" page that doesn't help you with anything. Their Discord server is no help either. They have a "helpdesk-forum" which is just other people that use Nitrado answering people's questions, since no one that works for Nitrado is able to. Save yourself the time and money and use any other host.

Hello Francis,

We are sorry to hear that you had this experience, however, keep in mind our team is focused in providing support for critical problems, and we do not specialize in mod configurations, that's what our wiki, forums, and discord are there for. Still, we would like to follow up on your case, please write us at reviews@nitrado.net, providing us with your user ID number, or any ticket ID so that we can investigate further.

Sincerely,

I continue to have issues with my game server and have had to be switched to several different machines in order to resolve. I'm very dissatisfied with this, but upon contacting customer support via their chat function, Ivonne Angeles was very helpful and able to fix the issue...

Nitrado Gameserver Refund
December 12, 2020

My friends stopped playing on my freshly renewed minecraft server so i tried to request a refund through the chat support. Yere Fernandez helped me through text and not only canceled my server but also gave me a 100% refund!

I'm very pleased with how i've been helped. This took 10 minutes max. That's the least i have to wait to get to talk to someone when calling my ISP lol!

Worst customer service you can get.
August 18, 2023

Type: Space Engineers
Their Mods field in the server configuration files page stopped adding mods. When I opened a support ticket they told me that adding new mods requires creating a new world. Completely untrue. You can add mods one or five at a time all you want, and I've done it on their configuration tools before, but it doesn't work now. However, after pointing this out to them and telling them that their own web pages on how to manually add mods were broken and do not display to users, they basically just gave me a shoulder shrug and said that they only support hardware and not configurations. I told them over and over that I'm asking them to support THEIR web page and THEIR own configuration tool, but they simply refused to do it. I will never attempt to use their service again. I'm giving them an additional star above 1 because their hardware was good and I didn't have any problems with lag or performance.

As Bohemia stand alone DayZ is only available on Nitrado, you are very limited. The price is very reasonable and the support crew responds overnight but the reliability of the servers located in Miami leaves a lot to be desired. Seems we have more "stuck in restart" than run time. After submitting a support ticket, I got a speedy response but nothing changed, Frustrating for sure and to make it worse, I got an email asking me to auto-pay for more months. I have to believe this can be done better. My son is a server admin for a major bank and agrees that the response should not take days to figure out but maybe 24 hours at most. Nitrado... you can do better, please see to this problem. Thanks.

Hello Rich,

We are truly sorry about the inconvenience you experienced with our service.

Unfortunately, we were having a general issue with some servers, causing them to be stuck in a restarting process, the issue has been fixed by now, and all affected services have been compensated.

We appreciate your understanding.

I did not end up staying with these guys but I will say they tried very hard to make things right & to run smoothly for me being I had the lower priced hosting & there was never any lag no matter how I set things in game & anyone who has played ARK knows that it is a resource hog from hell with a lot of settings. They even let me swap between games, refunded me left over portion of money not used, and was just down right awesome.

If you want a... good game server host who will go out of their way to make you feel important & do right by you. Go server.nitrado.net!

Would I recommend anyone to them?
I just did! GO server.nitrado.net!

Scabby Company
November 11, 2023
Updated review

I purchased a server, 4 days in they were having issues with their server time adjustments making the site inoperable for a few evenings. So here we are now 10 days in and I still can't actually access the service I have paid for so I asked for an extension. Instead, they sent me the remaining balance as a credit...meaning they sent me some of my money back, not enough to rent another month, and didn't apologize for any maintenance issues, or try to compensate me fairly. I just wasted 10 days for nothing. I am beyond angry with Nitrado, sorry excuse for a company.

I asked them for a refund to which they had no reply but sent 11$ to my account when I paid 17$ initially less than 24 hours before. I opened a support ticket to ask for the remainder but instead got charged another $17.01. Now i am in chat with them explaining my case and they can't find the "issue"... don't even bother. My advice, just don't spend any money with nitrado, or bohemia.

I rented a server in hopes to get to play with me and my friends.
The most important custom settings were missing and we wanted to add the commands.
None of the official commands worked in game through the server.
When I contacted support about it, I got a lengthy condescending answer how that is not what support is for and to look into their forum.
In the forum my post got deleted because it was "answered" in another post from June 2020 - bwt it was not, the person in there gave up like me.
If you want a stable server, yes they are ok.
If you want customer service that is non existent, then this is perfect for you.
I found a better more user friendly competitor.
No refunds.
Choose wisely.

Hello Petra,

We truly apologize for the recent bad experience you had with our services.

We would really appreciate it if you could please specify to us which ones of the most important customer settings were missing, and if you could please give us an example of an in-game command not working, so then we can investigate more in-depth the issue you were experiencing and help you get it fixed.

Please be aware that we do refunds, just a few minutes after you requested for a refund, we started the process to refund the amount directly into your payment method.

We are eagerly awaiting to assist you further with your requests, please feel free to raise a new ticket, in the following link: https://support.nitrado.net/#/

Also, please have no hesitation to give us any further feedback or suggestions you might have in the future.

Great support
December 20, 2020

We had an issue with a server that refused to boot. Our support technician, Samuel Miguel figured out the issue within minutes, offered to fix it and then did it. It feels good to have a support service that does not ask you whether your computer is powered or if you are connected to the internet when the issue obviously lies elsewhere.

If you're looking for the following, you've come to the right place:
1. Worthless Technical assistance
2. Shaky server stability (at best)
3. Mediocre pings
4. Ticket response times usually within the same decade
5. Enjoy explaining the technical aspects to their Technicians
6. Bullied into using their monopolized crossplay service (only host that Xbox can use)
7. FTP service? Ha, you thought there was a positive. No FTP storage.
8. Basic features such as a working map, have been broken for OVER A YEAR.
9. Since May 18th (21 days ago) the TWENTY servers we pay for every month randomly reboot, randomly throughout the day.
10. The web interface does not work for wiping your server - must call their Support. See #1.
11. My post is about to be character limited, else I could sit here until 2024 telling you why to avoid this $#*! show.

No refunds at all
December 1, 2023

Nitrado as a game provider is good and solid partner. Their servers are rock solid and support regarding game servers and technical issues is Ok.

Problem is when you want to cancel all your servers you paid in advance and no longer want to use. Nitrado will not refund you. They will charge you 50% of all your remaining credit and keep all your remaining money on your nitrado account.

Ordering a servers for months till year in advance is not a wise here. If you will not longer need your game servers, They will charge you 50% of all your remaining money you invested into them.

You will receive credit but that credit they won't refund to your bank account. You may only order another game server (what a joke charging (stealing) 50% from your account money you may use to order another game server from them only)

If you want a game server from Nitrado, never pay more than for 1 month in advance. Never pay them like I did, for 3 months or years in advance.

For me, this is pure stealing practice taking 50% as a cancellation fee and after that not refunding even remaining credit back to your bank provider.

I was happy with Nitrado for a long time but this shady practice well.

Hundreds of € taken away from me 113,70€ remaining credit after 50% charge, probably too.

Nitrado, keep my money. I don't care anymore.

Hello Michal,

We are sorry about any inconvenience you could have experienced with our service.

By reviewing your account, we confirmed that all the credit you got from the cancellation of your servers has been refunded back to your payment method.
You saw it as a credit on your account for a few days because the refund to your payment method was still in process, it can take up to 5 business days and we have mentioned to you that via ticket support, it was never our intention to keep it on your account.

Information about the cancellation and possible refunds of Nitrado services is always public, you can find it here: https://server.nitrado.net/en-US/guides/nitrado-cancellation-support-server-guide

Don't support nitrado because they're trying to prevent a free market through predatory tactics like signing an exclusivity agreement so only they can host ark ascended servers for whatever price and quality they feel like. In my experience i spent $30 to play with my 3 friends in a 20 slot server because that is literally the only option.In those 3 days i've had the server its only been operational for 10 of the 72 hours, i haven't been able to play on it or even find it since. Bisect Hosting wouldnt do that to us.

I have rented several different servers through nitrado over the past few years and also have one running for nearly 3 years nonstop now and had no bigger problems. I don't know why many complain about bad performance, I basically never had problems in that regard.

The only problem I remember was when for a few days the performance of my server got very laggy, but that has been resolved quickly through their support service.
Price to performance is also very good.
Overall reliable hosting service, can definitively recommend. (at the very least for Minecraft and GMod, as those have been used by me)
