AternosReviews of aternos.org

I am using Aternos for my 2 servers, and I think it is the best minecraft server hosting.

I wouldn't recommend this to anybody. My friend used to run his server on aternos, the server would randomly shut down and it always took at least 30 minutes to restart itself, then if no one was on for like 2 minutes it would shut itself down. Then when the server was up it always had high ping and lagged a lot. And half of the time it wouldn't even save my builds on the server at all. Anyways we are done with this garbage hosting, we are now using mine craft hosting pro.

While it does let you create a free server, there are many better free hosts, who don't have ads and don't require a player to be online all the time, and are instead funded by a freemium business model out there that offer nicer support and et cetera. EDIT: I think that most of the good reviews are fake, Aternos is basically a waste of time. Also, it’s very easy to make your own server on your computer, or, in my case used a cheap (almost disposable cheap) Raspberry Pi to create a better server, no wait times, everything is much better. No reason to use Aternos. Staff are also bad ar replying, really bad host.

I echo what most of the other reviewers here said. Aternos is solidly average, but it's one of the only options for free hosting. Aternos is great for a newbie server host. I was 100% new and didn't want to invest money into something I wouldn't enjoy managing/ wouldn't have any friends interested in joining. It was great to experiment with and get familiar with mods and creating worlds. ultimately though I outgrew it very quickly. Since I work retail MOST of the time my play times were not during Aternos' peaks (I would say after work/school hours EU and weekends). But during those times I wanted to play and it was peak, I could see 45+ minute queue times to start my server. The handful of friends I had playing with me would ask me to boot the server and quickly lose interest when I told them how long it would take. I didn't find the lag awful, a little distracting at times. Once I started experimenting with mods, that's when things really started to fall about. Trying to install a world / tp around with Multiverse was an ordeal that would take 30+ mins of restarting the server. If this was during peak times, I could forget it. Every time I had to restart for a mod function I was thrown back in queue. I used Aternos for about a month before I started looking for paid options. I would still recommend highly for someone new / experimenting but at the end of the day, if you want serious hosting you should either do it yourself or find a paid service with higher quality.

It's a free minecraft server. I played 50+ hours on it with some friends and it works just fine. It's true, there are lags and it needs some time to start up, but considering, that it's a free server, it is still great. It's totally customizable with a lot of mod(packs) and plugins. I really apreciate the developers, who just run the servers and let us have fun 4 free. I don't understand why people complain about being "hacked". If you don't understand how to set up a whitelist, it's not their fault. Ihr seid die Besten! Macht bitte so weiter! -daniel_exe

It works ok. It does what it says, but if you want to host here, get ready for a LOT of lag, and i mean a LOTTTTTT. It also just shuts down on its own sometimes, without me doing anything. I'd reccomend just spending a few bucks on a small paid server, as the random shutdowns, and total freezes are REALLY annyoing.

It's crap, a bunch of horse crap, but that's what I get for choosing a free aternos server, It shuts off randomly everytime. -_-

echt super, dafür dass es komplett kostenlos ist.
