What other providers sell as extras is simply how we run a server.

  • Setup and migration

    We build the server and move your site or app onto it, free.

  • Hardened and firewalled

    Closed by default. Only what your business needs is open.

  • SSL certificates

    Issued, installed and renewed before they expire.

  • Daily backups

    Encrypted, kept off the server, and restores we actually test.

  • Updates and patching

    Security updates applied every week, in a set window.

  • Monitoring and the fix

    When something breaks, we are alerted and we fix it.

  • A named engineer

    One person who knows your setup, not a ticket queue.

  • The client portal

    Every server, its cost and its extras, in one place.

Your part: choose a size. Our part: the rest.

Cyber security, in plain words.

Six things that actually happen to small and mid-sized companies, and what we do so they do not happen to yours.

  • Someone guesses your passwords

    What happens. Robots try thousands of passwords a minute on every website and email account.

    What we do. We block repeated attempts, turn on two-step login and lock the account at the first sign.

  • Ransomware locks your files

    What happens. A virus encrypts everything and asks for money to unlock it. Small companies are hit the most.

    What we do. Your backups live where the virus cannot reach. We restore, you do not pay.

  • A fake email fools someone

    What happens. An email that looks like your bank or your boss asks for a password or a payment.

    What we do. Our filter stops most of them before anyone sees them, and laptops block the dangerous links.

  • Your site is flooded

    What happens. Thousands of fake visitors at once, until real customers cannot get in.

    What we do. The flood hits Cloudflare's network first and is dropped there, before it reaches your server.

  • Old software with holes

    What happens. Every outdated plugin or system is a door that attackers already know how to open.

    What we do. We update everything every week, in a set window, and test that nothing broke.

  • A laptop is lost or stolen

    What happens. Whoever finds it can read your files, emails and saved passwords.

    What we do. Disks are encrypted, and we lock or wipe the laptop remotely the same day.

Your site is slow? Let us look at it.

A free speed check. You get what slows it down and what it would take to fix, in plain words.

Why not just rent a server?

The machine is the cheap part. Everything around it is what keeps your business online, and with us it is someone's job.

Built with the brands big companies trust.

You do not need to know these names. We do. Here is what each one does for your business, in plain words.

  • Cloudflare

    Shield and speed

    Stands in front of your website. Blocks attacks and fake traffic, and makes pages load fast everywhere.

  • Fortinet

    Firewall

    The locked door of your office network. Only what should come in, comes in.

  • Bitdefender

    Antivirus

    Protects every laptop and server from viruses, and stops ransomware before it locks your files.

  • Veeam

    Backup

    Copies your data every night and brings it back, a single file or a whole server.

  • Palo Alto Networks

    Network security

    Watches the traffic of larger networks and stops intruders that look like normal users.

  • Let's Encrypt

    The padlock

    The certificate behind the padlock in the browser, so what your visitors type stays private.

  • Red Hat

    Server system

    The operating system banks and governments run their servers on. Stable for years.

  • Kubernetes

    App platform

    Keeps your application running. If one server fails, another takes over on its own.

Questions, answered plainly.

Something not covered here? An engineer answers, not a salesperson.

What does managed mean here?

We install, secure, update, back up and watch the server, and fix it when something breaks. You never log in to a control panel unless you want to.

Do I get root access?

No. The server is run by us so that it stays secure and supported. Your developer gets the access they need to deploy, through us.

Can my server grow later?

Yes. The server is resized in place, keeps its address and its data, and the change is planned with you.

Where is my server?

In Germany or Finland for Europe, or on the US East or West coast. You choose, and the data stays there.

Is moving my site included?

Yes, always. We move it, test it, and switch over when you agree.
