What managed covers

Managed services, added where you need them.

Every VPS ships unmanaged with basic telemetry included. From there you choose the managed services you want layered on, so you only pay for the help you actually use.

Included

Basic monitoring

Every VPS ships with basic telemetry so you can see that your server is up and running, at no extra cost.

Add-on

Advanced monitoring

Deeper metrics on top of the basics, so you can watch resource use and catch problems before they grow.

Add-on

Uptime checks

External checks that watch your services and alert you when something stops responding.

On request

Managed OS updates

Let our team handle operating-system updates for you. Work is scoped per request so you stay in control of what changes.

Add-on

Proactive support

Hands-on help from the team for the parts you would rather not manage yourself.

Add-on

Automated backups

Optional scheduled backups, from weekly to daily, with up to 30-day retention, added per plan.

Managed or unmanaged

The same server, as hands-off as you like.

Managed here is not a separate, locked-down product. It is the same KVM VPS with optional services on top, so you can start unmanaged and add help later, or vice versa.

Same measured platform

Managed runs on proven hardware.

Adding managed services does not change the machine underneath. You get the same AMD EPYC platform and NVMe RAID10 storage, with every figure published as the median of five reproducible runs.

How to get it

Add management on the service page.

There is no separate product to buy. You order a VPS, then enable the managed services you want.

Simple to enable

Pick your VPS, then your services

Order any plan and add advanced monitoring, uptime checks, backups or managed OS updates on the service page. Managed OS updates are scoped per request, so nothing changes without your say-so.

You can add or remove managed services as your needs change.

Honest scope

What managed does and does not mean

Managed here means we help with operations: updates, monitoring, uptime and support. It does not lock you out of your own server, and you stay responsible for your applications and data.

Not sure what you need? Ask the team and we will point you the right way.

Where it runs

Managed in Amsterdam or New York.

Run your managed VPS in Amsterdam for EU jurisdiction and AMS-IX peering, or in New York for low latency across North America. Same hardware and price in both.

FAQ

Managed VPS questions, answered.

What does Managed include?

Basic monitoring is included on every VPS. On top of that you can add advanced monitoring, uptime checks, automated backups and managed OS updates, plus proactive support. You choose the services you want.

Is this a fully managed VPS?

It is an unmanaged VPS with optional managed services layered on. We help with operations such as updates, monitoring and support, while you stay responsible for your own applications and data.

Do I still get root access?

Yes. You keep full root whether or not you add managed services. Managed help sits alongside your access, it does not replace it.

How are managed OS updates handled?

OS updates are available on request and are scoped per request, so you decide what gets updated and nothing changes on your server without your agreement.

How do I add managed services?

Order any VPS plan, then enable the managed services you want on the service page. You can adjust them later as your needs change.

Does managed include backups?

Backups are an optional add-on, from weekly to daily, with up to 30-day retention. You can add them per plan alongside other managed services.

Get help where you want it, keep control where you do not.

Run a real KVM VPS and add managed monitoring, uptime, backups and OS updates on top. Root stays yours, in Amsterdam or New York.
