Super reliable, trustworthy, and amazing customer service! I'm usually skeptical when it comes to external server hosting, because a lot of services can either make their service really obscure in how the user engages with it. Or in some cases, they make it difficult to access the payment plan information you've given to make it harder to cancel reoccurring payments. However, I'm pleased to write that Akliz is easily the best service I've ever used. It's simple and easy to use, and offers easy access to my plan and payment information. As someone who's overly cautious with where I give payment info, it's super relieving to be able to trust services like this. Bare in mind, I was playing Java Minecraft for all of my servers and was playing with no more than 3-4 players at any time, and it was perfectly smooth for all of us. This is also my first experience with a hosting service that allows simple (website integrated) installation of Minecraft modpacks with CurseForge, and it's easily my favorite part of this service. Akliz supports hundreds of modpacks for Minecraft alone, allowing you to pick which version of the modpack you want to play, and players can easily connect to it through their modded client when also playing CurseForge. It let us spend less time organizing mods and more time playing, which has reignited our inspiration to play! A side note: As I mentioned earlier, I'm super cautious about subscription services. When I got my first month of the hero plan, I immediately closed my plan so I could just use the service for a month without being charged again once my month was done. However, once that month ended, I neglected to reactivate it. Once your plan ends, your servers (and the worlds in them) are deleted. Mind you, there is a cheaper plan ($5/month) which will retain your server and world info on your account, but I didn't think to choose this at the time. So my world was gone, much to the dismay of my group. Fortunately, I was able to contact support with their online messaging service. I contacted them that evening, and the next morning I was immediately in contact with a human being who instantly replied to all of my follow up responses, and attended to my concerns directly. Since it was so soon after my plan had ended, we were able to get my MC server into a recoverable state! They were super chill about everything, and they've earned my recommendation easily.
