BisectHosting

BisectHosting is a game server host operated by Venture Node LLC, an Ohio limited liability company, according to its terms of service. Minecraft is its best-known product, priced per GB of RAM each month, with discounts of 10 per cent for quarterly, 15 for semi-annual and 20 for annual billing. The home page cites more than 110 games, 21 locations worldwide with free switching between them, and a Starbase panel with game swapping and full FTP access.

The company also sells dedicated servers, VPS servers, Mumble voice servers, web hosting and a Discord bot hosting service. Venture Node states it is registered for EU VAT under the One-Stop Shop regime and charges VAT to non-business customers in the EU. The home page quotes a Trustpilot rating of 4.7 from more than 25,000 reviews, which is the vendor's own claim.

• Per-GB Minecraft pricing. You pay per GB of RAM each month, with 10, 15 and 20 per cent discounts for longer billing cycles. The amounts were not rendered in the text we read, so the price list itself needs checking.
• Bisect One plan inclusions. The Minecraft page lists hardware, instant setup, DDoS protection, NVMe drives, unlimited disk space, a free MySQL database, free subdomains and manual modpack installs as part of the Bisect One plan.
• Modpack library. More than 2,300 modpacks install automatically. An Instance Manager provides 2 instance slots and a 40GB shared storage pool, and the plan includes 2 backup slots.
• Starbase panel. The panel supports game swapping, configurable backups and full FTP access. A Biko assistant is described for live performance. The home page says swapping games costs no extra charge.
• 110 plus games. The home page cites more than 110 games, including Minecraft: Java, Palworld, Valheim, Satisfactory, Project Zomboid, Vintage Story, Enshrouded and Farming Simulator 25.
• 21 switchable locations. The home page lists 21 locations and says customers can move between them free of charge, so latency can be tested after ordering.
• Support and extra products. Support runs 24/7/365 with a stated average ticket reply time under 15 minutes, plus a knowledgebase and video tutorials. Dedicated, VPS, Mumble, web and Discord bot products sit alongside.

• A modpack-focused Minecraft group. With 2,300+ automated modpack installs and an Instance Manager, a group that rotates between packs can switch worlds without rebuilding a server each time.
• A community that plays several games. Free game swapping and a list of more than 110 titles let one subscription serve a group that moves from Minecraft to Valheim or Palworld over a season.
• A growing community needing other hosting. Dedicated servers, VPS, Mumble voice servers and Discord bot hosting are sold by the same company, so voice and bot needs can sit with the game server.

The pages we read describe plans and the panel rather than a setup procedure. A buyer picks a game, chooses an amount of RAM and a billing cycle of monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual, and then selects one of 21 locations, which can be changed later at no charge.

The Bisect One plan is described as having instant setup, and the Starbase panel gives access to backups, FTP and game swapping. For Minecraft, modpacks can be installed automatically from the 2,300+ list or manually. Support is open at any hour through tickets, and a knowledgebase and video tutorials are linked from the home page. The pages read show no trial period.

Game swapping costs no extra charge. Venture Node charges VAT to non-business customers in the EU and is registered under the One-Stop Shop regime.

The terms of service say BisectHosting is operated by Venture Node LLC, an Ohio limited liability company, and the About page footer names the same copyright holder. The terms state that Venture Node is registered for EU VAT under the One-Stop Shop regime.

The pages we read do not describe a privacy policy, encryption, certifications or the storage location of customer data, and they name no sub-processors. DDoS protection is listed as an included feature. Backups are configurable in the panel, with 2 slots in the plan described, though retention and location are not stated.
