Both versions are nearly the same.
Joymax patched 99% of all features to iSRO aswell.
The biggest difference in SRO-R probably is that players are not able to attack uniques if they are 20 level higher than the unique. Thats the only difference I still remember.
Quest System, Balancing were added to iSRO aswell.

In terms of server:
Avoid Servers hosted by Joymax. They are old, players are afk, prices are fcking high. Login-Time takes hours.

JC Planet Servers on the other hand are newer. Aeolus and Xian (only CN) are from early 2017 and mid 2017. Hestia is the most recent server that opened a few weeks ago. But you are only able to get EXP for a few others. After that the EXP will drop to 50% and then to 0% (That only goes for JCP-Servers!). The good thing here is: If you relog before you run out of time your bar will be full again. On the other hand you get 100k SP and DG 1 - DG 9 Sun +5 weapons.
Another thing you have to remember: You will disconnect really often if you do not have VIP silver or higher or Premium+. But that should be the same on Joymax' servers aswell.

Joymax SRO-R server also has a limited amount of time per day where you are able to get EXP. But as far as I know you are not able to get a full bar after relog.

JC-Planets SRO-R server on the other hand is a really good one. Of course you have a bar here again. But if you have VIP silver or higher you can level 24/7. I do not know if the relog-method is working here. Besides that you will also get 100k EXP and stuff like that. But you need a JCPlanet account for that. Another advantage of Ephesus is: There is no waiting time while connecting. The server is empty 24/7. Good thing if you do not plan to buy VIP or Premium+.

In the end it does not matter if you play on a full server where all players are afk 99% of the time or on an empty server ^^
In both scenarios you have to play alone.

So with JC Planet and Joymax servers, i had the impression it was a different server. But when i have tried out JC Planet its the same players in both Joymax and JC Planet servers.
I have just got back into Silkroad after years and decided to play SRO-R but i have been playing on Joymax. Deciding if its worth to start again using JCPlanet for the 100k SP ?

you get 100k SP and sun weapons +5 from D1 - D9

Following servers are hosted by Joymax:
- Bellona
- Ceres
- Feriona
- Flora
- Minerva
- Mycena (SRO-R)

Servers hosted by JC-Planet
- Aeolus
- Xian (Only Chin)
- Hestia
- Ephesus (SRO-R)

In order to receive 100k SP and the SoSun Bonus you have to use a JC Planet account and you have to connect to one of the JC Planet servers.

Besides that you are able to use a Joymax account to connect to a JC Planet server. But in that case you will not be able to get these types of rewards. It is also possible for you to use a JC Planet Account to connect to a Joymax server. In that case you do not have any benifit from doing it that way.

Of course you will connect to the same server when you use a JC Planet Account or a Joymax account when you select e.g. [insert server name here].

The 100k SP and the SoSun +5 weapons are totally worth it (=> Thats why JCP servers are better). You will make it to level 90 in around 1-2 weeks (without a 8 men party) when you have Premium Plus. Simply because the 100k SP will last until ~Level 76. Also do not forget to do the outpost quest. They will give you a massive EXP/SP Boost. With that said there should not be any need for using a gap until level 90.
