Our review
Pros
  • Every RedM plan ships with unlimited slots, sized by memory instead
  • txAdmin sits beside ZAP's own panel, and the database is automatic
  • A one-off $79.92 lifetime server replaces the monthly bill entirely
  • Premium RedM starts at $4.00 a month, less than half the field
  • Sixteen locations across Europe, North America, Asia and Australia
  • SaveGuard restore points are automatic and show what a restore changes
Cons
  • No money-back window is published for game servers
  • Eight locations, the smallest network among the Cfx.re partners
  • The configurator recommends 6 GB, well above the $9.08 starting point
  • That $4.00 plan carries 1 GB; $4.67 on Eco buys four times the memory
  • Nothing on the page mentions txAdmin or a RedM framework installer
  • CreeperHost is not on Cfx.re's authorized RedM partner list
