Low latencies & Zero packet loss

Our network infrastructure, currently operating at 80+ Tbps, was designed so that we can guarantee constantly low latencies, zero packet loss and no saturation – even during peak times.

Multi-channel support

We provide all of our clients with 24/7 access to technical support over live chat, email and phone. To offer even greater flexibility and cut down on response times, we decided to start providing support over private Slack channels.

Unshared uplink capacity

Each DataPacket server is deployed with either 2 x 1GE, 2 x 10GE or 2 x 40GE unshared uplinks. Coupled with unmetered bandwidth plans, our infrastructure can handle even the most bandwidth-intensive tasks.

4-hour deployments & No setup fees

In-stock servers are deployed within 4 hours after payment. Initial OS installation and server setup are free of charge. In the rare event of a hardware failure, the faulty component is replaced under 120 minutes.
