MelonCube – 371 カスタマーレビュー: 分析 (8月 2026) - JA

機能とサービス

MelonCube started as a Minecraft host in March 2013 and still leads with Minecraft. The other product lines exist, but they read like side projects.

提供されるホスティングのタイプ

• Minecraft Java hosting – コア製品, sold purely by RAM (メモリー), from 1GB to 48GB
• VPSホスティング – KVM virtual servers with root access
• ウェブホスティング – cPanel shared hosting, four tiers
• 専用サーバー – ベアメタル, from USD 109/mo

お客様が強調する主な機能

Reviewers rarely talk about hardware. They talk about the panel and the support desk, so that’s where the real feature story sits.

• One-click plugin and modpack installers – the jar library is current, offering Minecraft 1.21.8 and recent snapshots. A stale jar list would force manual uploads.
• Unlimited player slots at no charge – most game hosts sell slots separately. MelonCube prices the slot add-on at USD 0.00.
• Free MySQL database – どのプランでも, useful for plugins that store data outside the world files.
• Automated restarts and crash recovery – configurable at checkout, up to twice a day.

One item on the order page hasn’t aged well. It still advertises “Java 8 サポート” as a selling point. Java 8 dates from 2014, そしてその 1.21.8 servers in MelonCube’s own cart need Java 21. The platform is current; the page describing it isn’t.

The same page offers three free trials: Enjin Advanced, Buycraft Ultimate and Minetrends Lite. Two of those products no longer exist. The Enjin Website Builder shut down on 30 4月 2023, and Minetrends has posted its own retirement notice. Buycraft still runs, but as Tebex, a name MelonCube uses on its homepage and not on its order page.

データセンターの場所

Here’s where things get strange. MelonCube gives four different answers about where its servers are, depending on which page you read.

• ページについて: “4 グローバルロケーション” と “13 Worldwide Nodes”
• Network page: five live sites (モントリオール, パリ, マイアミ, ダラス, ロサンゼルス), plus Bristol marked “COMING SOON”
• Order page: six choices, adding Amsterdam, which the network page never mentions
• Checkout cart: seven choices, adding New Jersey, dropped from the public order page in late 2024

MelonCube’s network page has listed its Bristol, UK data center as “COMING SOON” since at least 6 六月 2017. Nine years on, you still can’t book it. Need UK hosting? Treat Paris as the closest option, and see our 英国のウェブホスティングガイド for hosts with British sites today.

Location drives latency, the delay between a player’s key press and the server responding. European players on a Montreal node will feel it. There’s no Asian or Australian location at all, despite the site suggesting Los Angeles suits players there.

パフォーマンスの期待

MelonCube advertises “100% 稼働時間” DDoS防御 “in excess of 3 Tbps”. DDoS protection filters out attacks that flood a server with junk traffic, と 3 Tbps means 3,000 gigabits per second of it. Its own DDoS page then names the hardware. It lists a Cisco Nexus 7009 at 480Gbps, a Cisco ASR 9001 at 360Gbps, an Arbor PeakFlow unit at 90Gbps and Tilera appliances at 240Gbps. That totals 1,170Gbps, 下 40% of the advertised figure.

The per-site numbers are further apart still. The network page rates Montreal and Paris at 480Gbps, but Miami and Los Angeles at 20Gbps each. Pick Miami and you get one 150th of the protection the homepage advertises. The order page settles on 480Gbps, so even the storefront won’t repeat the 3 Tbps claim.

We found no independent uptime or latency benchmark for MelonCube. Customer reviews are the only performance evidence available, and they split by plan size. Reviewers on 1GB and 2GB plans mention lag far more often than those on larger ones.

顧客体験

MelonCube holds a 4.7/5 全体のスコア 383 パブリックレビュー. The distribution across the 380 English-language ones is heavily positive. がある 304 5-星 (80%), 33 4-星, 10 3-星, 13 2-スターと 20 1-星 (5.3%). Average those raw scores yourself and you get 4.5.

One caveat matters more than the score. This corpus has stopped growing. の 160 最近のレビュー, 48 landed in 2021, 60 の 2022, 28 の 2023, 23 の 2024 そして正確に1つ 2025. None at all in 2026. The newest public review dates from 15 11月 2025. だいたい 71% そのうちの 160 arrived through review invitations, which MelonCube has stopped sending. それで、 4.7 describes a service as it ran three or four years ago.

お客様が賞賛するもの

サポートのスピードが肯定的なレビューの大半を占める, そしてそれは近くにありません. の 20 最近の, nearly all praise the support desk. Titles run “Best support ever!”, “Issue quickly resolved” と “Quick and extremely helpful”. That’s a consistent desk rather than a lucky week.

Value is the second theme. Reviewers who moved from cheaper hosts describe MelonCube as the first one that stayed up. That combination usually eludes this price bracket. Ease of use is third, with the plugin installer and file manager praised by first-time owners.

一般的な苦情

Lag is the single biggest complaint, and it clusters on small plans. One reviewer running mods described a server that “started lagging worse and would stutter” 数日以内に. Another wrote that servers “crash at least once a day on lower tier packs”. Running mods on 1GB or 2GB? Expect trouble.

Refunds are the second theme, and the more serious one. A customer who asked on day six was refused, which matches the 3-day policy but caught them out anyway. Another wrote that MelonCube “didn’t have what they said they had, didn’t work and then didn’t send a refund”.

Account access problems form a smaller but sharper group. In the most recent negative review, from November 2024, a customer’s two-factor login page broke. Their ticket stayed open for nearly a month, and their service was cancelled while they were locked out.

コミュニティからのフィードバック (Reddit & フォーラム)

レビュープラットフォームを超えて, MelonCube’s community footprint is thin and mostly old. Most Reddit discussion dates from 2019, when the host was compared with McProHosting and PebbleHost. Better to say that plainly than dress up 2019 opinions as current evidence.

The most detailed thread is a 2019 warning post on r/Minecraft. The author reported around five crashes a day and long block lag. Support then offered advice twice before acknowledging their refund request. Their sharpest point still applies: when the refund came through, the server was cut off immediately, leaving no window to move world data out. Back your world up before you ask for money back.

More recent activity is sparse and mixed. 3月 2024, an r/admincraft user found that a MelonCube MySQL upgrade had broken the LogBlock plugin on an old server. の 2025, an r/ModdedMinecraft commenter recommended them as “rather easy to use” with fast support. That’s about the whole recent record.

サポート品質

Support runs through tickets and a Discord community, 24/7, 電話回線がない状態で. 賞賛には一貫性があり、十分な証拠がある. The failure mode is visible too. When a problem needs a decision rather than an answer, such as a refund or a locked account, the same desk slows down. MelonCube lists a four-person team on its About page, which explains both the friendly tone and the thin cover.

When to Use MelonCube

MelonCube is a strong choice in specific scenarios:

理想的な用途

Small friend-group servers on a fixed budget: A 4GB plan at USD 12.00/mo handles a vanilla or lightly modded world for a handful of players. You know what month two costs, which is more than most budget hosts offer.

First-time server owners: ワンクリックインストーラー, free MySQL and free slots remove the setup steps that trip up beginners. Support answers quickly when the question is technical.

People who hate price rises: The per-GB rate has held at USD 3.00 since at least July 2022. If a host has ever doubled your renewal, that stability is the main draw here.

感謝していただけると幸いです

• 毎月支払いたい, because there’s no lock-in and no setup fee
• You need many players on a small server, because slots cost nothing
• You’re in North America or western Europe, where the live nodes are
• You want to scale in 1GB steps, because upgrades are instant

When NOT to Use MelonCube

誰にとっても合うホストはいない. MelonCube isn’t the right choice if:

他の場所を探す

You want time to evaluate: 返金窓口は、 3 days and covers the first payment only. That’s tight for testing a modded server properly. 悪い, VPSプラン, 専用サーバー, add-ons and domains carry no refund rights at all.

You’re running a large modded or public server: A flat USD 3.00/GB looks fair at 2GB and expensive at 32GB, where you’ll pay USD 96.00/mo. Hosts that discount at scale will beat that comfortably.

You need players in Asia, オセアニアとか南米とか: There are no nodes there. Los Angeles is the closest MelonCube gets, and calling that an Australian option asks a lot of the Pacific.

You’re relying on the DDoS headline: Pick Miami or Los Angeles and you sit behind 20Gbps of filtering, いいえ 3 Tbps. That matters if your server is a real attack target.

あなたの状況に対する危険信号

• 電話サポートは必須です: 一つもありません. Tickets and Discord only.
• You may need to dispute a charge: A chargeback triggers a USD 200.00 手数料, 66 times the entry plan’s monthly price.
• You want a contractual uptime promise: The 100% guarantee pays 50% credit at most, and only after a claim. The terms separately disclaim liability for “any disruption, 遅れ, or disconnection of services for any period of time”.
• You depend on backups: Daily backups keep 7 日々, but the contract says MelonCube isn’t responsible if they fail.

MelonCube Transparency Score

We assess how upfront MelonCube is with the information a buyer needs:

• 企業情報: 素晴らしい – the parent company, VentureNode LLC, is named on the About page with an Ohio registration and a postal address. Team size and founding date are stated too.
• 価格の透明性: 良い – the per-GB ladder is published in full, with billing-cycle discounts stated as percentages. The mark against it is the “USD 1.50/月から” 見出し, which never says it covers one month.
• 技術文書: 限定 – the specs and network pages are detailed, but they contradict the order page on DDoS capacity and each other on locations. A Bristol site has been “近日公開” 以来 2017.
• 条項 & ポリシー: 良い – the 3-day refund limit, the no-refund product list and the USD 200 chargeback fee are all written plainly. Harsh, but not hidden.

全体的な透明性: Better than most on who they are and what they charge, weaker on what they’ve built. The contract tells you the truth. The marketing pages haven’t been reconciled with it, or with each other, in years.

Alternatives to MelonCube

If MelonCube doesn’t fit, これらは特定のギャップに対処します:

For Lower Cost Per GB: PebbleHost

PebbleHost advertises its budget Minecraft line at USD 1.00 1GBあたり, a third of MelonCube’s rate. The trade-off is shared CPU on the budget tier, so it suits small vanilla worlds rather than heavy modpacks. See where both sit in our Minecraft サーバー ホスティング ガイド.

For Easier Refunds: ショックバイト

Shockbyte’s refund window is also 3 日々, but you trigger it yourself from the control panel without opening a ticket. Refund friction is MelonCube’s most repeated complaint, so taking the support desk out of that path is worth something.

正直な更新価格について: Apexホスティング

Apex prints the first-month price next to the recurring price on every plan card, それで米ドル 11.24 sits beside USD 14.99. It costs more than MelonCube, but you can’t misread month two.

For other games, 私たちの ゲームサーバーホスティングの比較 covers hosts running Rust, ARK and titles MelonCube doesn’t offer.

結論

この結果をコピーする

MelonCube earns 4.7/5 横切って 383 reviews and remains a decent, cheap home for a small Minecraft server. It’s held its price for four years, doesn’t charge for slots, and answers tickets fast.

結論

Buy it for what it does now, not for what the website says. Those pages promise 3 Tbps of protection the hardware doesn’t support, a UK data center nine years late, and free trials for two dead products. None of that breaks a 4GB survival server. The price you’re quoted is the price you’ll keep paying.

と 4.7/5 横切って 383 レビュー, MelonCube delivers on price stability and support speed. It falls short on accuracy and refund flexibility. Buy it for a small friend-group server, not a large modded network.

よくある質問

Is MelonCube good for beginners?

はい. The one-click installers handle plugins and modpacks without file editing. Player slots and a MySQL database are free, なので設定することはほとんどありません. Support answers quickly when you get stuck.

Is MelonCube worth the price?

At small sizes, はい. A 4GB server costs USD 12.00/mo and stays there. But the rate is flat at USD 3.00 1GBあたり, so value drops as you scale. At 32GB you’d pay USD 96.00/mo, and hosts that discount larger plans will beat that.

顧客が最も不満を感じていることは何ですか?

3つのこと. Lag and crashes on the 1GB and 2GB plans, especially with mods. Refunds refused after the 3-day window closes. And slow ticket handling when the problem is account access rather than a technical fault.

How does MelonCube compare to Shockbyte?

MelonCube is cheaper per gigabyte and includes free slots. Shockbyte has more locations and lets you request a refund yourself from the control panel. Both use a 3-day window, so neither gives you long to test.

Does MelonCube offer refunds?

それだけ 3 日々, and only on your first payment for Minecraft or web hosting. VPSプラン, 専用サーバー, add-ons and domains have no refund rights at all. Back up your world first, because customers report the server being cut off the moment the refund goes through.

Is MelonCube’s 100% uptime guarantee real?

It’s a real policy, but a limited one. You get a 10% account credit after 15 minutes of downtime in a month, 上昇する 50% 後 24 時間. It never pays more than half your monthly fee, and MelonCube can decline a claim at its discretion.
