A NOWNodes alternative with the price on the page
NOWNodes runs fully managed private RPC nodes, but its dedicated page shows no price. Its April 2026 blog lists dedicated nodes from EUR 800 a month. RocketRPC publishes $99/mo for a full node and $149/mo for archive, with a backup node included and no setup fee.

- You need a chain we don't run, such as Solana or XRP. NOWNodes lists dedicated nodes for both, and 120+ networks overall.
- You want more than JSON-RPC. NOWNodes lists WebSocket, webhooks, gRPC and a Data API.
- You want a fully managed service where the provider deploys any node you ask for.
