What's the difference between semi-managed and fully managed?

Semi-Managed suits you if you:

  • Run your own applications but want the server itself looked after
  • Want security patches, OS updates and hardening done for you
  • Want 24/7 monitoring with alerts and backups managed

Fully Managed suits you if you:

  • Want us to manage the OS and your applications too
  • Need database optimization and performance tuning
  • Want intrusion detection, malware scanning and security audits
  • Want tested restores and a dedicated account manager

Quick comparison:

  • Both plans: security patches and OS updates, 24/7 monitoring, firewall and fail2ban, security hardening, backup management, performance tuning, priority support, plus free Backup and Recovery and Migration services.
  • Fully Managed only: proactive monitoring, OS and application management, database optimization, intrusion detection, malware scanning, security audits, tested restores, dedicated account manager.
