Snapshots every 15 minutes, copied off the node. The last seven days stay at full granularity, then weekly out to three months. A griefed spawn costs you minutes; a problem you only spot in month two is still recoverable. Free on every plan — we don't sell backups as an add-on.
Your players already live in Discord. Check server status, see who's online, and run a Spark profile to find what's causing lag — without opening the panel or waiting on a ticket.
Moderation without the console. See everyone connected right now, kick or ban in a click, and toggle the whitelist without touching a file. Hand a moderator exactly the permissions they need through subusers — they never get your credentials or your billing.
Browse and install plugins from Hangar & SpigotMC, mods from Modrinth & CurseForge — all in one click. No manual file uploads, no version hunting. Find it, click install, done.
Full modpack support from Modrinth and CurseForge with category filtering. Deploy a complete modded server in minutes without touching a single file.
Hit a shortcut and instantly search across your servers, navigate to any page, start or stop servers, and jump straight to console — all without clicking through menus.
Hundreds of point-in-time snapshots, kept offsite — seven days at full granularity, then weekly out to three months. Roll the whole server back to any of them, or browse a snapshot and pull back a single file, which is usually what you actually want after one bad config edit.
Moving from another host? Pull your files straight over SFTP or FTP, import automatically from another Pterodactyl panel, or upload a .tar.gz or .zip if that's all your old host gives you. Whatever access you've been left with, there's a route in — no support ticket, no manual rebuild.
Live CPU, memory and network graphs against your actual limits, so you can see whether you're near the ceiling before players start complaining. Node health is public on our Grafana too.
A full file manager in the browser. Upload, edit, rename and organise server files, drop in a jar, fix a config — no FTP client and no SSH.
See who's connected right now, read straight from your server, and kick or ban without opening the console. Whitelist is a toggle and a username box — no editing whitelist.json by hand.
Invite a co-admin by email and hand them exactly the permissions you choose across 42 individual controls — console, power, files, backups. They never get your credentials or your billing.
Also included on every plan
Fully customisable task scheduling. Set up automatic restarts, timed commands, backup triggers or anything else on a cron-style schedule — no CLI required.
Every plan includes a free MySQL database managed directly from the panel. Create databases, manage users and connect your plugins without touching a CLI.
Every plan gets full panel access from day one. No locked features, no tiered access — just the full thing.
