What is PingPerfect?
PingPerfect is a game server host whose terms refer to Pingperfect Ltd, governed by the laws of England and Wales. The privacy policy gives an address in East Yorkshire, England for the controller. The about page shows a copyright range of 2013 to 2026 and names no founder, director or registration number. The home page lists 20 locations worldwide, among them London, New York, Sydney, Singapore, Sao Paulo and Johannesburg, and describes enterprise DDoS protection.
Besides game servers it offers VPS, dedicated servers, voice servers and web hosting. Prices are in dollars, shown without a currency code, with from-prices per game and a Custom option on each. A free 48-hour trial on most game servers and a 48-hour money-back guarantee are advertised, and free browser tools generate settings for some games.
PingPerfect key features
- 48-hour trial. The Minecraft page advertises a free 48-hour trial with full access and no restrictions, limited to one per account rather than one per game. The home page says it covers most game servers, not VPS or dedicated servers.
- Six Minecraft plans. Normal 6 GB at USD 17.62, Normal 8 GB at USD 27.43, Normal 8 GB busy plugin server at USD 30.51, Extreme 6 GB at USD 37.89, Extreme 8 GB at USD 47.70 and Extreme 8 GB busy plugin server at USD 50.78, billed monthly.
- Hardware stated per plan. Plans list unlimited players, about 100 GB NVMe storage and Ryzen or EPYC CPUs at 4.5 GHz (Normal) or 5.0 GHz and above (Extreme). Busy plugin plans add above-normal CPU priority.
- Game Panel with scripts. Servers are set up automatically after payment and managed through a Game Panel with backup, restore and wipe scripts, plus automated game, mod and plugin updates. The pages do not list which games each script supports.
- Nightly offsite backups. Backups run offsite at 4 AM server time each night. Retention length is not stated, so the number of restore points is a question to ask before ordering.
- 20 locations. The home page lists 20 locations worldwide with London, New York, Sydney, Singapore, Sao Paulo and Johannesburg named. The about page gives no data centre cities and points customers to the locations page.
- Free browser tools. A 7 Days to Die sandbox code generator and a Space Engineers server password generator run in the browser and do not send entered text to the company. They help with setup even before an account exists.
Who PingPerfect suits
- A first-time Minecraft host. The 48-hour trial gives full access without restrictions, one per account. A new admin can test mods and plugin load before deciding between the Normal and Extreme plans.
- A busy plugin server. The busy plugin plans add above-normal CPU priority and run at USD 30.51 and USD 50.78 per month. A network with many plugins can start from those rather than from a plain plan.
- A group on another continent. With 20 locations, including Sydney, Singapore, Sao Paulo and Johannesburg, a group far from Europe can pick a site near its players. Latency per site is not published.
Getting started with PingPerfect
The pages we read describe plans rather than a setup procedure. You can start with the free 48-hour trial, which covers most game servers but not VPS or dedicated servers, and allows one trial per account. After payment the server is set up automatically and managed in the Game Panel, where backup, restore and wipe scripts and automated game, mod and plugin updates are available.
Choose a location on the locations page, as the about page gives no data centre cities. A 48-hour money-back guarantee applies to all plans, and ticket support is described as 24/7 with a typical response under 10 minutes. The home page names no API.
Verdict: PingPerfect
Pingperfect Ltd, governed by English law, offers a 48-hour trial with full access, limited to one per account, plus a 48-hour money-back guarantee. Minecraft plans run from six to eight gigabytes on Ryzen or EPYC processors, priced in dollars per month.
