Control Panel Options

Post by defiant »

I know NFO does not offer any kind of control panel with the dedicated/virtual servers, but it would be really awesome if you did. I have been looking around at dedicated servers and the task of administrating the entire thing is a bit daunting and not exactly my forte. I have noticed that a few companies offer TCadmin as an add-on option (at cost of course) for their dedicated servers. This lack of a CP is the only thing stopping me from ordering a dedi from NFO. That said, NFO is the only company I feel comfortable ordering a dedi from.

I'm sure I'm not alone in saying I wouldn't mind shelling out some extra dough per month for a TCadmin, or similar, control panel as an add-on option at the order page. I know you can purchase a CP and set it up yourself, but it would eliminate hassle and user errors and add user friendliness to the dedicated/virtual servers.

I love NFO servers and support and wouldn't take my business elsewhere. But until something like this is implemented it's not really feasible for me.

Thank for the feedback and we may add this at some point in the future.

I'm not a big fan of using a control panel when services aren't being resold, because it adds complication and to a certain extent just gets in the way. Plus, there's not much advantage to doing that over getting a managed server.

Running a basic game server from our default game installs folder is actually very simple and well-documented, too :).
