Why I Built GameCP

Back in 2004, nobody was automating game server management. I built GameCP to fix that, and it became the go-to panel for thousands of server admins.

Fast forward to today — too many stale panels stuck in 2012. I rebuilt GameCP from the ground up as a next-generation platform with the tools server admins actually need: real-time metrics, automated deployments, and unlimited servers per node.

No per-slot pricing. No locked-down configs. Just a clean, modern interface and the freedom to run your servers your way.

"If you're tired of clunky panels from a decade ago, this is the upgrade you've been waiting for."

— Will, Founder of GameCP (Est. 2004)
