About Nodecraft
Nodecraft, Inc. was founded in 2012 by co-founders Jon Yarbor and James Ross. The company is headquartered in Oklahoma City, United States. Nodecraft says it was created to build a modern platform for player-created game servers. The company is known for its game-server control panel and save-and-swap tools, which help customers manage different game servers.
What Nodecraft sells
Nodecraft Pro game-server hosting
Pro is for players who want a supported game server that can remain online continuously. Nodecraft’s NodePanel includes tools such as a browser-based file manager, console, backups, player management, scheduled tasks and save-and-swap.
Nodecraft Lite game-server hosting
Lite servers hibernate when nobody is using them and can be woken with a share link. This setup is intended for groups that do not need their game server running continuously.
Custom game-server plans
Customers looking for a tailored setup can choose a custom server configuration rather than a standard plan.
Nodecraft Studio
Studio is a developer SDK and platform for adding player-created server creation, discovery and related multiplayer features to a game. It is a developer product, not a game-server hosting plan for players.
Nodecraft Server Powerups
Powerups are optional professional services for tasks such as server setup and product-configuration assistance.
Server locations and support
Nodecraft lists server locations across North America, South America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. Its published list includes cities such as Seattle, São Paulo, London, Amsterdam, Singapore, Tokyo and Sydney. Locations can change and are not guaranteed to remain available, so check the options shown for your game and plan. Nodecraft lists live chat, Discord, telephone and email support. Its stated staff support hours are daily from 11:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. CST; this is not a claim of round-the-clock human support.
Who Nodecraft suits
Nodecraft may suit players who want managed hosting for a supported multiplayer game, value a purpose-built control panel, or want to switch between different game servers. Lite may fit groups that prefer servers to sleep when idle. Developers exploring player-created server features may be interested in Studio.
Look elsewhere if you need a game that Nodecraft does not support, require guaranteed availability of a particular location, or need human support at any hour. Compare the available configurations and terms before choosing.
