// customer reviews
Trusted in Production
Real reviews from Google, HostAdvice, and Cryptwerk.
- 25Gbps Bare Metal
Port speeds on cloud were capped and shady. With RS I actually get the 25Gbps they say. No throttle bs.
- Validators
Set up multiple Solana + Avalanche validators through them. Hardware was clean, latency was low (especially in Europe), and uptime’s been 100% so far.
- Full Root Access
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.
- Cloud Exit
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.
- 99.99% Uptime
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.
- ETH & BTC Nodes
Deployed a few Ethereum and Bitcoin nodes here. Uptime’s been flawless, and sync speed was great thanks to their storage config.
- Game Servers
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.
- AI Storage
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
Support is super responsive. I had an issue with an OS reinstall and they jumped in within 10 minutes… Transparent pricing = win.
- Instant Delivery
They have an instant delivery section… they delivered it within 120 mins with all my requirements fulfilled (OS/RAID/Software configured etc).
