What Our Customers Say About Nexus Servers
Waiting for some testimonies and working on improving the site every day! If you are a customer and would like to submit a testimony send me a message anytime at justoastyt!
I am able to have a large group of people (so far anywhere from 5-10) active on the server at the same time, and it still runs well! I have been very happy with the pricing as well, feeling satisfied that I've definitely been putting money towards an experience that's actually worth it.
Frequently Asked Questions About Game Server Hosting
Nexus Servers owns and operates our own hardware and datacenter infrastructure in Reno, Nevada — we do not resell third-party capacity for the majority of our offerings. By controlling the full stack we keep costs low and pass savings to customers while investing in a tailored network and enterprise-grade DDoS mitigation specifically tuned for game traffic.
We do resell a small number of VPS products, but most of our hardware is owned and the plans advertised on this site are hosted on machines we control. We do not overprovision RAM, so customers receive the resources they pay for.
Our focus is on offering extremely competitive pricing while ensuring reliable uptime, low latency, and timely, gamer-focused support.
