I have personally used Post Affiliate Pro for almost 2. While I had some small issues, the customer support team quickly resolved them. The software is pretty affordable and has a lot of excellent features and many, many integrations. We took the advantage of free set-up and integration, which was a very nice gesture from the company.

I got a free server, the service delivers what it is supposed to.

Overall my experience with Aternos have been great, it has been pretty simple to manage, and starts up quick once everything has been set up.

Probably the one reason why I wouldn't always choose aternos to host a simple, free Minecraft server with friends, would be the fact you can't upload your own mods/plugins to the server, they must already be chosen by the staff which can be annoying.

you make life too difficult mods complicated to install just give a list of all of the installed mods make the server always running not that hard you smurf why can’t I just remove one mod without removing all mods that is so stupid you guys are morons playing minecraft with ONE other person should not be this damn hard fix your shit and get a better name aternos sounds stupid
