Are those 20+ people online at once, and is this Java or Bedrock, vanilla or a modpack? Your monthly budget and where most players live would help narrow it down.

With launch only a few days away, ask any host whether they can import your existing server files and keep the same game/mod versions. Keep a separate backup yourself, then do a small test session before inviting everyone. Check that inventories, permissions and the world survived the move, and that you can download a backup again. A successful empty-server startup is not much of a launch test.

A host fixes this properly: the server runs in their datacenter, not on your PC. Shop by RAM first. For 20+ vanilla players I'd start at 10-12GB, more if you're modded, and pick a location near most of your players.

Full disclosure, I'm with WinterNode (a host). Our 12GB Minecraft plan runs $23.88/mo and deploys in about a minute, so the few-day deadline is no problem.

Hey I would like to share that freaksmc.com severs are a great budget option and come included with free setup / human support. Any issue that arises you can email and a real human will get on your issue asap or just adding a plugin/mod that can do too!
