Great host, super responsive, very professional. Customer for over a year and nothing to complain about! Thanks <3

Audrey G.FiveM · October 2026

Quality server at an attractive price. I've been using HelloServ since February 2026 (first with a Hytale server, then Palworld, now Minecraft). Upgrading the server is always easy, the performance is there, and I've never had any issues with the infrastructure. The server panel is intuitive, clean and easy to use. The site's administrator listens, is active and responsive, always there to help and above all thinks about the customers. I recommend it without hesitation.

Loic F.Minecraft: Java · October 2026

Stable servers, great support on Discord, fast and efficient (answers within a few hours). I have a CS2 server that runs wonderfully for a small community and honestly nothing to complain about. You can go for it without any problem, and if you have questions, the Discord can answer them.

XonnyCS2 · August 2026

Very good service, with responsive customer service and a handy panel. To play Hytale, the €7 Lite plan is too weak, go for the Start one. Customer service let me switch plans at no cost. I recommend it!

ThomasHytale · January 2026

Simply thank you!! Moving my services to you was the best decision 👍 I had quite a few problems with DDoS attacks in the past; with you I no longer have to worry about it and I can focus 100% on developing my project! I was blown away by how fast the support is during the day and even at night (reply received at 2 a.m.). I recommend Helloserv without hesitation :)

DDoS Anti-DDoS customerSeptember 2025

I opened a technical ticket about a security question on the machine's ports, especially the MySQL port. Mathis replied quickly, clearly and reassuringly, while taking the time to explain the real risks and the good practices to put in place. I appreciated that he didn't settle for a quick answer. He gave me several useful tips to secure my Garry's Mod server. The discussion was really cool, with real explanations suited to my level. You can tell he knows the subject well and really wants to help, not just close the ticket. Responsive, competent and reassuring support. I recommend it. Even at night :)

FalleyGarry's Mod · May 2026

High-performance VPS at a low price, 100% French, with staff who listen and quickly handle VPS-related requests.

VPS VPS customerNovember 2025

Cheap, plugins work very well, perfect, I recommend it.

Emile Q.Minecraft: Java · June 2026

So far the best one I've tried.

Ludovic G.FiveM · April 2026

I'm really happy, my Xeon VPS works super well, I host several sites on it without any issues as well as my Discord bot! I recommend it

VPS TomVPS · October 2025

No performance problems. I've been hosting my Minecraft server for almost 3 months and I'm pleasantly surprised: attentive and fast customer service, honestly nothing to complain about! Good value for money.

Minecraft customerJune 2026

A customer for about ten days now, my FiveM server runs without any issues with an average of 60 players online! HUGE THANKS!

Adrien_DevFiveM · February 2026

I love this host: active support, very effective Anti-DDoS, and problems and bugs fixed very quickly. I'm very happy with this offer.

Hugo D.Garry's Mod · October 2026

Rented a Valheim server for 3 months for the 1.0.0 release. After talking with the very responsive customer service, I got access to all the features needed to run the server and the mods. There's no lag and everything works properly.

Pierre C.Valheim · September 2026

I'm very happy with the server. Thank you.

VPS Michaël L.VPS · August 2026

Great service and excellent support! We have 2 dedicated servers for the needs of a small business (so we need very responsive support). All the small issues get fixed quickly, even late at night, and support replies in under 30 minutes ☺️

Dedicated Daniel C.Dedicated server · September 2025

Everything perfect, simply.

Julien C.FiveM · May 2026

Great, efficient, fast and attentive, honestly nothing to complain about, go for it without hesitation!

Taha E.Minecraft: Java · August 2026

A fabulous experience. I highly recommend this host for game servers and VPS. I rented a FiveM server and a VPS for my website and had no problems at all. After 1 month of use, I've never had any downtime!

AnnesseFiveM · May 2026

Very good company. I've been hosting my websites on a HelloServ VPS for 2 months now and haven't had a single problem. I was with another host before and it was really hard to reach anyone in customer service. With HelloServ I usually get an answer within the hour. Thank you

VPS SasuuVPS · October 2025

Nothing to complain about. For our experience and our needs, a fairly heavy modpack built around "Cobblemon" with ten or a dozen players, the service you get for the price is extremely surprising, and on top of that the support is very responsive and pleasant, even late at night! I can only recommend it without the slightest hesitation.

SimbaMinecraft: Java · June 2026

Lucky a host like this exists! The game servers perform really well, honestly, just go for it!

AllanFiveM · April 2026

I rented a VPS from them, it's the best value for money I've found in France. Usually I rent my VPS in Germany because it's cheaper, but the servers have a bit of ping to France. Here they have a French datacenter so it's great, and for the price I'm not disappointed with the performance

VPS Frank EDPVPS · September 2025

Great host, nothing to complain about.

  • 2 PoPs in France

    Both in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes: your servers never leave France.

  • AS215124 network

    It is registered in HelloServ's name. If something goes wrong, we step in directly, with no subcontractor.

  • Owned hardware

    The servers belong to HelloServ, they are not rented from another host.

Which plan for your server?

Memory follows the map and the game you run first, then the number of players and props.

Your serverPlayersRAMPlan
Friends on a small map up to 10 4 GB s&box Lite · €4.99
Large map or community game 10 to 20 8 GB s&box Start · €9.98
Active public server 20 to 32 12 GB s&box Plus · €14.99
Big server, lots of players and props 32 and more 16 GB s&box Pro · €19.99

These are guidelines: with no players, Sandbox uses about 1.5 GB on Flatgrass and 3 GB on Construct. If the server grows, you can change plan from the panel without losing your files.

What you set from the panel

The everyday settings, without opening a file.

  • Game and map

    The game and the map are chosen by their identifier on sbox.game. The server downloads them at the next start.

  • Number of slots

    The maximum number of players is set in the panel and applies at every start.

  • Server list

    A reserved query port lists your server in the in-game browser, under the name you choose.

  • Automatic updates

    The server moves to the latest s&box version at every restart, so it matches your players' game.

  • Optional Steam token

    With a Steam game server token, your server keeps the same identity from one start to the next.

  • Backups

    The Backups option adds full copies of the server, to restore or download from the panel.

No licence to buy for the server: it is free, your players only need s&box on Steam.

A horde of zombies in an s&box community game

The game you want, not just the sandbox

s&box is the new game from Facepunch, the studio behind Garry's Mod and Rust: a Source 2 sandbox where players publish their own games on sbox.game. Your server runs whichever one you want, from the original Sandbox mode to community shooters and zombie games, and downloads it by itself at start-up.

At HelloServ, the official dedicated server installs from Steam, updates at every restart and has a reserved port to appear in the in-game server list. You keep full access to its files from the panel or over SFTP.

Frequently asked questions

What is s&box server hosting?
It is a service that runs the s&box dedicated server for you, 24/7, on a machine in a datacenter: your server stays open even when your PC is off, and you manage it from a panel (console, files, settings).
Is s&box Garry's Mod 2?
That is what many players call it: s&box is the new sandbox from Facepunch, the studio behind Garry's Mod, built on Source 2. It is not an update of Garry's Mod: its addons and DarkRP servers do not install on it. For a Garry's Mod server, we have a separate plan.
Which game can my server run?
Facepunch's Sandbox mode is installed by default, on the Flatgrass map. You can run another multiplayer game published on sbox.game instead: put its identifier (for example facepunch.sandbox) in the "Game" setting, the map's in "Map", then restart. The server downloads the game and the map at start-up.
Which s&box plan should I choose?
Memory mostly depends on the map: with no players, Sandbox uses about 1.5 GB on Flatgrass and 3 GB on Construct (measured on our machines). Lite (4 GB) is enough for friends on a small map, Start (8 GB) suits large maps and community games, Plus (12 GB) and Pro (16 GB) a busy public server. You can change plan from the panel without losing your files.
How do my players join the server?
Through the s&box server list: your server appears there under the name chosen in the panel, with the number of free slots. The name and the number of slots can be changed at any time and apply at the next restart.
My players can no longer connect after a game update, what should I do?
The server must run the same version as your players' game. Restart it from the panel: automatic updates (on by default) install the new version from Steam before launch.
Show 3 more questions
Why host an s&box server in France?
For latency: a server in France responds quickly to players across Western Europe, which matters in a physics game where everything moves at once. HelloServ hosts its servers in its datacenter in France, with anti-DDoS and 24/7 support.
What is the Steam game server token for?
It is optional. Without a token, the server gets a new Steam identity at every start; with one, it keeps the same identity. You create it for free on Steam's game server management page, then paste it into the "Steam game server token" setting in the panel.
What technical support do you offer?
Our 24/7 support helps with hosting, network, performance and the panel, by ticket or on Discord. For the game itself and game development, the official documentation on sbox.game and the s&box Discord are the best sources.
