Real reviews from Trustpilot, HostAdvice, Cryptwerk, and Google.
Port speeds on cloud were capped and shady. With RS I actually get the 25Gbps they say. No throttle bs.
Network has been rock solid. They’ve got Tier 1 carriers like Arelion, GTT, and TATA… We just ping them on Telegram and they sort things out quickly.
Set up multiple Solana + Avalanche validators through them. Hardware was clean, latency was low (especially in Europe), and uptime’s been 100% so far.
As a sysadmin, I care more about control than flashy dashboards. RedSwitches gives me root access, IPMI, and actual hardware specs I can configure. Good for serious users.
We were searching for a truly reliable and stable hosting provider with maximum uptime and a powerful network infrastructure to ensure the lowest possible latency. RedSwitches not only met but exceeded our expectations.
RedSwitches gave us full control over our infrastructure without the vendor lock-in we kept running into with cloud hosts. Customizable builds, fast provisioning, and actual humans handling support tickets. It’s refreshing.
My website works smoothly, thanks to their 99.99% uptime guarantee. The support team is another plus for me, as I always have been able to get help whenever I needed it in just 5 minutes on average.
Deployed a few Ethereum and Bitcoin nodes here. Uptime’s been flawless, and sync speed was great thanks to their storage config.
They provide what they promise, I got no throttling while running my RPC Nodes. I got server in a Amsterdam for the best price.
I am using their 10gbps streaming server for last 6 months and I have no complaints. Extremely quick live chat support and I love that they accept crypto.
A really great hosting provider - what stands out the most is the stability of the network connection and the wide selection of bare metal servers. We’re very satisfied, and RedSwitches covers all of our needs.
Pros: Extremely reliable hardware, low-latency network, transparent billing… Great choice if you need raw power without cloud complexity. Works well for our dev environment and some AI workloads.
I have worked with OVH and Contabo in the past, but RedSwitches hit a better balance of price vs. support. Not the cheapest, but I get better performance and faster help.
Been using RedSwitches for 6 months now for my small game server biz. Uptime has been great, and I haven’t run into any hidden charges.
Using the storage servers to archive logs and snapshots from our AI pipeline… I also love that I could pick the datacenter closest to our team.
Support is super responsive. I had an issue with an OS reinstall and they jumped in within 10 minutes… Transparent pricing = win.
They have an instant delivery section… they delivered it within 120 mins with all my requirements fulfilled (OS/RAID/Software configured etc).
A dedicated server has been installed within 30 minutes. Thirty minutes. It takes DAYS for some famous providers out there, but these guys do their work right.
I have been using their services for over 5+ years… Uptime: 10/10, Network: 10/10, Hardware Quality: 10/10, Customer Support: 20/10 (No, That’s Not A Typo).
They offer top quality hardware, excellent uptime and very responsive support… They helped us scale our business exponentially and we went from 1 server to 14 dedicated servers in less than a year.
Great hardware, non congested network and excellent service. Already using them for over a year and would definitely recommend Redswitches if you are looking for a reliable hosting provider.
With servers available in numerous strategic locations, RedSwitches offers exceptional versatility and performance for our company’s diverse hosting needs. Plus, their no setup fee policy really helps keep costs down.
"Your server is ready" - I read this message within 30 mins of starting the chat with their Sales Team… Excellent DELL Hardware and 100% Uptime.
The dedicated server I got from RedSwitches has been incredibly reliable and fast. Their bare metal cloud solutions offer excellent performance, and the cloud VPS options are perfect for scaling. Highly recommended!
I have been using their dedicated server from 9 months now. Starting from pre-sales till today I have not experienced downtime or lack of support.
First of all, all services work as expected - secondly - support is outstanding, no matter when you start the conversation with colleagues at support they have knowledge to help you out.
We have been using Red Switches for several years since 2021. I have never experienced such fast customer service.
Absolutely delighted with RedSwitches! The setup was quick and free, and the fact that they accept all major payment gateways made the process seamless.
Very good experience using their bare metal servers. Their customer service is one of the finest I have experienced - always prompt at resolving troubles. Highly recommend.
Common questions about Chicago dedicated servers, answered by the engineers who run the hardware.
For in-stock builds, we typically deliver in ~10-60 minutes. Custom configurations (CPU, RAM, NVMe/RAID, extra IPv4, private VLANs, 1/10/25 Gbps ports) are usually ready in some time, depending on configurations. You keep full root access. Need changes later? Most upgrades (RAM, disks, port speed) can be done without OS rebuilds.
All Chicago deployments include always-on L3/L4 DDoS by default (clean-traffic allowance + auto-mitigation for common attacks like SYN/UDP floods). For application threats, you can add L7/WAF rules, rate limiting, custom ACLs, and alerting. Tell us your protocol mix (HTTP, gRPC, game ports, RPC) and we'll right-size protection for your Chicago dedicated server hosting.
Latency naturally varies by carrier, route, and time of day. Chicago's central geography provides balanced coast-to-coast performance and quick reach across the Midwest and Canada. We publish live traceroutes and pings on the RedSwitches Looking Glass so you can see current paths before you deploy. For mission-critical hops, we can engineer private backhaul or cross-connects.
RedSwitches supports both. On-box backups (snapshots or image/file backups) reside on the same server or attached storage, enabling fast restores. Offsite backups replicate to a separate facility/region with encrypted, versioned, and immutable options, as well as retention tiers. We tailor RPO/RTO to your app: from hourly incrementals to daily fulls, plus quarterly restore tests. For DR, choose cold, warm, or hot standby on a second server with database replication, DNS failover, and runbook support, ideal for resilient Chicago dedicated server hosting.
We keep it simple and transparent. Pick an affordable Chicago dedicated server on monthly billing, or lock in term discounts (3/6/12-month). Bandwidth is either unmetered by port (1/10/25 Gbps) or 95th-percentile commit for bursty traffic. No setup fees. Add-ons (extra IPv4, DDoS tiers, management, backups) are itemized upfront. Pay by card, bank, or crypto. You can upgrade CPU/RAM/NVMe or port speed later without a rebuild, great for a truly cheap dedicated server Chicago that scales. Check our pricing.
Yes, GPU servers in Chicago are available. We commonly deploy NVIDIA L40S, A6000/A5000, and RTX 4090; enterprise/HPC cards (e.g., A100) can be procured. Configs include NVMe storage, 10/25 Gbps uplinks, and optimized drivers for PyTorch/TensorFlow. Choose single- or multi-GPU chassis with optional NVLink, plus managed support for drivers, monitoring, and backups. Tell us your model sizes and dataset needs, and we'll size the GPU Chicago dedicated server for training or real-time inference.
No problem. Our talented engineers will consult, architect, migrate, manage, and do whatever it takes to help your business grow and succeed.
