Strengths and trade-offs
Host Havoc — where it wins
- A one-click installer for popular Factorio mods, plus FTP for the rest
- Ten slots for $10.00, scaling to 150 slots on the same panel
- Offsite backups included and 14 locations on hardware Host Havoc owns
Where it doesn't
- The slot plan never says how much RAM stands behind it
- $10.00 for ten slots is above the cheapest entries here
- No free trial; the safety net is a 72-hour money-back window
Indifferent Broccoli — where it wins
- RAM is uncapped on every tier; you pay for players, not gigabytes
- Two-day trial without a card, then a 7-day refund window
- The page names Space Age, and the six-player tier is marked recommended
Where it doesn't
- Six regions is the second-shortest location list in this directory
- Mods come off the portal through file access, not a panel installer
- No RAM figure to compare, so price per GB cannot be checked
- Host Havoc9.1/10 · Per slot · 72-hour guarantee
Ten slots for $10.00 with a one-click mod installer, offsite backups and 14 owned locations.
