Frequently Asked Questions

## Why Sonar 3.0?

Sonar 3.0 is a complete recode of the original plugin, Sonar 2.0. Performance, especially during bot attacks, is significantly better. Additionally, the verification is much more advanced and in-depth, while at the same time also being less prone to false positives due to built-in lag compensation. For a more detailed overview of the differences, take a look at the [Features](https://sonar.top/docs/features).

In addition, cloud features and the web panel are only available to Sonar 3.0 customers. Advanced analytics can help identify issues on your server, improve player retention and player count, identify suspicious patterns, and more.

Example of performance analytics on an established production server (~250 daily players):

## Do you accept one-time payments?

Sonar operates as a subscription-based service because the cloud computation, web panel, and various databases run on paid machines. For those facing difficulties with payments, we offer custom deals on special occasions. For more information, please [Contact Support](https://sonar.top/discord).
