Shared hosting: not enough control
PHP versions you cannot upgrade, no root access, resources shared with hundreds of sites. Growth quickly outgrows shared hosting.
We need a newer PHP version. The provider says it is not available on our plan.
VPS and custom domain
VPS and your own domain Cologne setup, administration and deployment for you
We are not a hosting provider. When needed, we administer your VPS at the provider you choose, set up domain, SSL and mail, and deploy your web app, website, shop or backend on it. Updates, security and support from Cologne. The server stays in your account.

The challenge
Why standard hosting often falls short
Many businesses start with cheap shared hosting and hit limits sooner or later.
Domain and mail misconfigured
Wrong DNS, missing SPF and DKIM, mail in spam folders. Setup mistakes that are hard to fix later.
Customer emails have not arrived for weeks. Nobody finds the cause.
Security and updates neglected
An unpatched server is an open door. Many SMEs have no one applying updates, checking logs and closing gaps.
The server has not been updated in two years.
