I have rented servers over the years and there was never a standout until i tried wombat with a bf4 server i administered some time ago. Iam currently renting a KF2 server from them and so far all is as i would expect. They have always been front and centre in respect to any support needed ( i run mods)and i find them very personable which is so different. I play and run competitive gaming servers, i dont cope with second best, spikes and lag very well and i would sooner play a game of chess than go anywhere near games like arma , no offence intended, each to their own.

Been with these guys for a year and renewed for another. Have found the servers to be stable and reliable, support is quick and friendly (Thanks Javed!!) and being an Aussie based company is even better! Highly recommended!

A real review. I have no idea how some of these review are made... I feel as they have asked or payed for them. Out of all Arma 3 communities i have in counted they would say this service is the worst. Tho we were determined for a cheaper dedicated server. After 2 weeks we found out the hard way their DDOS protect is like a Santa Clause... you tell everyone its real... but it's not. After that we were forced to abandoned ship. My advise: If you want to try out there server, Rent it and cancel the same time as they will charge another month for a useless server. There happy to take your money and offer you a sinking ship... Love Straya Gaming

We were with them from February this year to August and during that time we had multiple and frequent issues with disconnects, robot voice, and sometimes the server just not being available to anyone. We made a ticket about it in March, they said they'd investigate, we never heard back. Reopened the ticket in April, they said they'd chase the issue up, again we never heard back. We put up with the issues for another few months before swapping to discord. I cancelled the account this month, which is a request system. I received an email saying the request had been received and that an account manage would be in touch shortly, but again I never heard from them. I have also found out today that they have been double charging me the entire time we've been with them. I used paypal automated service and didn't realise until just now since it was only $10. So instead of paying them $10 a month they were taking $10 a fortnight instead. They were sending me monthly invoices and taking one payment then, and then two weeks later taking another payment. It could be a billing error, it could be deliberate. Either way don't trust your money with such an incompetent company.

I wont use any other host! I rent dedicated boxes from Wombat, and they are nothing short of awesome. The Back up and support is faster than any of the other GSP's, and the network is superb! Javed is awesome to deal with, and would not hesitate to recommend Wombat to anyone. I would imagine the any bad reviews on this page are from people who have NFI what they are doing! The perils of renting servers to n00bs ;) If you want something out of the ordinary, they will attempt to accommodate you as well, though naturally this requires a bit more setup time, but to date they have gone above and beyond the expected level of service! Many thanks to Wombat and Javed!

SOOOOOO SLOOOOOOOOWWWWW and dont have RCON which makes me scratch my head as to why not. OK Service but requested a refund after 2 hours of constant time outs and multiple errors. Servers shouldn't be this hard to set up. You might save money but if you want smooth sailing look else where.

They are cheap but there's a reason for it. Servers are slow, ftp times out all the time while trying to connect. Save your money and go else where

Servers are fast, response from host for support is fast, easy to use and setup and has all the features you'd expect. The price is pretty good too. Overall our community has no complaints, and we are sticking with Wombat as long as the service remains the same. HOWEVER, they claim they have mod support, this is LIMITED and they do NOT support the Tanoa expansion, so if you want to run that on your Wombat Arma 3 servers, you won't be able to. You will also not receive support for Arma2Sync if you are planning on having a community file repository. Shame Wombat, you are 99% of the way to being the perfect server host!!

I have had my arma 3 server hosted with wombat for almost 2 years now. In that time I have had my share of issues, but the support has been outstanding, 24/7. The server is running fantastic, is cheap and for the most part reliable. Thanks to everyone at wombat, and I look forward to another 2 years

This review is about TeamSpeak servers only - I do not lease any game servers: Currently I lease multiple teamspeak servers from Wombat. Overall the service has been very good - very little to complain about. The staff are friendly and quick to respond to internal problems. External problems do take a while to resolve, but that is really outside their control. While it is true there has been issues, what is important is that they have addressed those issues as quickly as possible in a professional manner.

Wombat servers has been nothing but great to me. Everything works just fine, the website itself is pretty and easy to use. The support is AMAZING! I sent en email when I had a problem with the server.cfg file (it was empty) and I was thinking that I'd get a response in about a day, but actually got one in just a few minutes! Not to mention how much they care and help. The only "issue" I have with the server which it's not really a problem to me but I still want to mention it, is I don't have the ping I was hoping to have, I was hoping to have under 30, close to 10, but instead I get 50 to 100. Which is fine for me because I don't actually notice a difference but had to mention it. Overall a great service. I recommend it :)

Wombat Servers' support team are fast, easy to understand and knowledgeable, I had a problem with my server config files, sent a ticket and took a walk, before I even got back to the PC, there was a reply from one of the staff, he had replied, solved the problem in an instant, it took less than 5 minutes for them to sort out the problem. Impeccable work, I fully back this company. A+ Wombat Tech Team

On the Perth servers, I received a ping of 11 and managed to fully saturate my 100Mbit link when backing up files and configuring mods. Excellent speed. I have used Wombat for hosting a game server currently still in development (ARK) and as such there were a couple of hiccups to begin with. As soon as I lodged a support ticket, the support team sprung to life and had my problems all resolved in a very quick fashion. As someone that has hosted many servers before, I would recommend and use again for future hosting.

Ok, so at the start.. Was good, cheap etc.. Little did I know they don't let you have access to RCon (#1 Needed thing for Arma Franchise) second, their support is the most lowest support team on earth. I used their webhosting for mucking around.. Then I moved along to streamline-servers.com! Greatest in australia so far, cheap and most fastest support reply's ever.

I have been continually email then trying to resolve this problem as my server after there updater crashed and it has been a has been hell, all I am getting but are the same 2 emails telling me that have restarted the server or reinstalled my server, however it never works and I have to ask them to fix it again and again. I have beg them to look in to this properly however the same 2 emails is all I get except the few times they tell me the account manager in looking in to this how ever this never happens. at this point I am trying to cancel paying for this service how ever they are still charged me, they will not refund me for the time the server has not been working or the new changes. some I am now tacking it up with fair trading. It is really sad because they where really good at the start but when the 2 second fix does not work you will have no hope, I would recommend never to use these guys.

Started on one machine which worked ok for a little while until we started getting server crashes twice an hour, after a week of that with no explanation provided as to why, we changed machines. The crashes stopped but the lag was unplayable for everyone on the server. cancelled my service and set up a server through amazon which works amazingly. Good price and Fast response from support just a shame about the server performance.

I found Wombat Servers by Google search while trying to find a new hosting company that would give me a good price on a CS:GO server. I was blown away with the service as well as price. The support was amazingly helpful and quick. I have not checked recently at their location availability but when I first found them they did not offer the most locations but I believe they had it in mind to expand and even were expanding when I first found them. I'd suggest Wombat Servers to anyone looking for a great host with great prices and support.

I had problems with the Minecraft server and installing mods within the first 24 hours, I requested that the support team update the mod pack version, and they did so in less then 8 hours. I can say that the customer service for this company is excellent, all responses were under 2 hours (except when I sent a ticket at 12AM). The issue wasn't resolved, but I am sure that the server technicians would have been able to sort it out had I not changed hosts. One other issue is that the client panel is rather clunky.

For the price they charge, they do a wonderful job, Over the years I've been with a few different Providers. And Wombat easily delivers Quality and Performance. There have been issues in the past. But I wouldn't move even for a cheaper then the cheap we get now!

I thought coming over would be the right thing to do, however i feel my previous server host offers a lot more features and value for money in fact 50% cheaper then my current host. the control panel is far to generic and not personalized for there purpose as much as they could be. finding open support tickets can be a nightmare which i think defeats the purpose of having 24/7 support if you cant find where it is. yes they do as they promise on there webpage i just feel there could be a lot more value. Considering they make the statement "the largest gaming network in Australia" its far from what i expected and the value just isnt there.

I can't complain at the service these guys provide. The servers are excellent and have a near 100% uptime (I haven't known mine to ever be down). You can make any and all changes to them that you want and should you ever run into any troubles - even if it's installing sourcemod or metamod or you can't connect to your server for an unknown reason, these guys have an impeccable customer service team who look at your support ticket and action it. I have never had to wait over 12 hours for a reply from their team. There is no better value for money - using a coupon advertised on their own website, I have lifetime 50% discount on the server cost. Include in a mumble server and the total cost comes out at $14.50 - For a 128 tick, 16 slot server plus 10 slot mumble server, you really can't complain. A++ Highly recommended. (PS: I have used another server company, which cost twice as much for the same service, had limitations on what could be done with the server & support frequently took 48 hours to get issues resolved. So glad I made the change to Wombat Servers.)

I have been a customer of Wombat Servers for just over 18 months, and not once in that time have I been unsatisfied with their level of service. These guys are very easy to deal with, and the quality of service from their servers are great. All inquiries are answered with speed and understanding, and they maintain a standard which is consistent. I will note their prices for some of their services may be on the steep side in some cases in comparison to competitors, however as long as it remains in my budget I will stick around due to the great team they have. I have experienced cheaper options with the (underestimated) expense of lacking customer service, which for me at least proves you're getting what you're paying for in this case. Would highly recommend to anybody out there.

We've had this server for a little over a month now and I dare say it's been the best hosting experience I've had thus far. Running a game server is not easy! However, hosting with WombatServers has been. Any and all problems I've had have been resolved quickly and with ease - these guys know their stuff. All of the problems (even ones I've created on my own by being impatient - seriously guys, don't interrupt an updating game server!) have been expertly addressed and dealt with. Their server infrastructure is stable - and server admin tools ample. All in all, having attempted to run 4 different Ark servers on different hosts over the past 8 months, these guys take the cake. ^.^
