Should I choose a VPS, a game server, or bot hosting?

Identify the service family suited to the software you want to run.

The right choice depends above all on the level of control expected. A game or bot server is managed by the Pterodactyl panel; a VPS provides a full Linux machine with root access.

Step-by-step procedure

  1. Game server

    Choose this family for Minecraft, FiveM, Rust, ARK, Valheim and the games offered in the catalog. The egg automatically prepares the runtime.

  2. Bot or application

    Choose Bots for a Node.js, Python project, or a small application that needs to remain active without administering Linux.

  3. VPS

    Choose a VPS for Docker, n8n, a website, multiple services or any configuration requiring root, firewall and system packages.

  4. Compare resources

    Check RAM, vCPU and storage in the summary. Allow room for spikes and updates.
