Quick answer
What is the best host for a Factorio server?
For a Factorio server in 2026, 1 to 2 GB of RAM is enough for 5 to 10 players in vanilla. With heavy mods (Space Age, Krastorio, Bob/Angel), plan for 2 to 4 GB. The hosts in our comparison offer plans starting at €3/month.
Why choose a dedicated host for your Factorio server?
Factorio games can last dozens, even hundreds of hours. A hosted server guarantees the factory runs 24/7, even when all players are offline. With mods like Space Age or Krastorio, the lifespan is even longer.

Location and latency
Factorio isn't very sensitive to latency for building and management activities. During combat against bug waves, a reasonable ping (under 100 ms) is enough. A data center in Europe works perfectly fine.
Control panel
A Factorio server is managed through a server-settings.json file and the command-line console. All the hosts in our comparison let you access the config files. Mod management is done through a simple, easy-to-understand mods folder.
English support
Factorio has very thorough official server documentation. The official wiki covers every aspect of hosting. The hosts in our comparison can help with updating between versions (especially major version changes).
