[ENT] Professional

Professional Hosting

For websites and applications the business depends on.

£45 /month

For systems rather than brochures

Who it suits

Web applications your staff use all day, customer portals, busy shops, or several websites under one roof.

What is included

Our largest standard plan, with headroom for applications and databases, SSL certificates and regular backups.

Support

The people who run the server, and in most cases the people who built the application. No ticket bouncing between companies.

Care on top

Add a care plan and we watch the system day and night, check its health every month and make small changes.

Who it suits

Professional is for systems rather than brochures: a web application your staff use all day, a customer portal, a busy shop, or several websites under one roof. It suits organisations where an hour offline means lost orders or a queue of phone calls.

Many of the web applications we build run on this kind of setup. If your website is a simpler shop or booking site, Business Pro at £25 a month may be all you need.

Four systems Professional hosting suits, then two made-up chats about a portal being down. With separate host and developer, each says ask the other. With Eightlegged, one call covers server and application.

Looking after it

A care plan adds checks every 15 minutes, day and night, a monthly health check and small changes. Care Plus (£79 a month) adds up to three hours of changes a month and priority phone help: £124 a month with Professional hosting.

If your system needs its own server resources or a particular configuration, look at Bespoke hosting, which we quote to fit.

Common questions

What is the difference between Professional and Business Pro?

More resources and headroom for applications rather than websites. If you are not sure which you need, tell us what the site does and we'll recommend one.

Do you host SQL Server databases?

Yes. Most of the systems we build run on Windows with SQL Server, and we host them ourselves.

Can I move up or down later?

Yes. Plans can change as the site grows.

Can you move our application from another host?

Yes. We plan the move with you, test the application on our servers first, and switch over at a quiet time so staff and customers notice as little as possible.

Who will we deal with if something goes wrong?

The people who run the server, and in most cases the people who built the application. No call centre and no ticket bouncing between companies.

Three steps for moving an application to us: plan it with you, test it on our servers while the current host stays in use, then switch over at a quiet time. A made-up example.
