“I have been a client of Novonode for just over a year now, and never once have been disappointed in the product quality or support. … The prices offered here are way lower than you would expect for the quality of support. Highly recommended.”

Question 01
Everything we host that isn't a game panel: VPS hosting from $3.50/mo, dedicated servers from $180/mo, Discord bot hosting from $1/mo and web hosting from $1.50/mo. All of it runs in Chicago behind DDoS protection.
Question 02
A VPS is a slice of a shared machine, split up by a hypervisor, with its own vCores, memory and NVMe storage. A dedicated server is the whole physical machine, reserved for you alone: no hypervisor and no neighbors, so every core, every GB of memory and every drive is yours.
Question 03
Most FiveM communities run well on our FiveM server hosting, a Windows server set up for FiveM. Big cities, or owners running several servers on one box, are better off on a dedicated server, where the whole machine is theirs.
Question 04
Yes. When your server outgrows its VPS, ask us on Discord or open a ticket and we help you move it onto a dedicated server on the same Chicago network.
Question 05
Yes, on both. VPS plans with 4 GB of memory or more run Windows Server, and dedicated servers install Windows Server 2019 or 2022 in one click. Either way you get full Administrator access over Remote Desktop. Linux is there too, with root access.
Question 06
A VPS is provisioned within 60 seconds of your payment going through. In-stock dedicated servers deploy instantly; if the model you want is sold out, ask us on Discord about a restock.
Question 07
Yes. Every Novonode service sits behind DDoS protection at no extra cost. VPS and dedicated servers also get the firewall portal, where you can see every attack on your IPs, switch on game filters and write your own rules.
Question 08
Chicago.
Question 09
Yes, within 24 hours of ordering a new service. Open a ticket from your billing account and we refund it. Renewals and add-ons are not covered.
