Allnodes review

The entry tier is the Advanced plan, priced at $320 for the bare-metal range. That sits above the bare-metal group median of €5.93 and above the overall site median of €5.83, so Allnodes is priced for dedicated hardware rather than for the lowest starting figure.

Each plan includes 50 TB outbound traffic included, extra from $1/TB. Once that is used, extra egress is charged per terabyte rather than cutting the connection, which suits workloads with occasional spikes. Servers are bare-metal throughout, so the bandwidth allowance sits on dedicated hardware.

The footprint covers 3 locations, listed as DE, US and JP. On locations Allnodes ranks 136 of 239 brands, below the bare-metal median of 5. Buyers needing many regions should compare wider options.

Billing models cover hourly and monthly, and the hourly model applies to the range. Hourly billing suits short experiments, while monthly terms fit steady production load. The company behind the plans is Allnodes Inc., which is useful for procurement checks.

The certification list includes ISO 27001, ISO 14001 and ISO 22301. That covers security, environmental, business continuity and data centre standards, which matters when customers ask for evidence. No licence entries are listed, so the certifications rather than licences carry the assurance here.

DDoS protection is included as standard, and the uptime commitment runs 99.9% to 99.98%. For a bare-metal host that is the baseline expectation, though the guarantee range is modest next to providers that publish higher ceilings.

Support channels are email, help centre and community, so questions go by email, through the help centre or via the community. There is no chat or phone channel listed, which matters for incidents where a fast human answer is needed at any hour.

There is a free allowance described as Free RPC endpoints and snapshots via PublicNode. That is useful for testing node sync and RPC workloads before committing budget to the Advanced plan at $320. It is an endpoint allowance rather than a free server.
