Running an open-source application well in production is more than installing it. It has to be integrated with your email and identity, secured, backed up, monitored, and kept current as new versions land. We take responsibility for all of that, so your team can use the application rather than maintain it.
Applications we specialise in
- Odoo Community
- Business management suite covering accounting, CRM, sales, purchasing, inventory and more - all versions, OCA and custom modules, email integration and upgrades. See our dedicated Odoo Community hosting page.
- Nextcloud
- File storage, sharing and collaboration - a self-hosted alternative to commercial cloud storage, with full control over your data.
- Jitsi
- Video conferencing for small groups of up to 15 participants, with no account required for guests. Suitable for team meetings and client calls.
- PeerTube
- Video hosting and delivery from your own infrastructure - training materials, presentations, marketing content and internal communications.
- Identity and access management
- Centralised authentication using OpenLDAP, LemonLDAP or FusionIAM, with single sign-on across your applications and proper user lifecycle management.
- Bespoke and containerised applications
- If it runs in a Docker container or on a Linux VM, we can host it - custom-built applications, niche open-source tools, and development or staging environments, on infrastructure isolated to you.
What we take responsibility for
- Deployment
- Installed, configured and integrated with your email, DNS and access controls.
- Updates and upgrades
- Version upgrades planned and carried out - including the awkward ones - with a tested path back.
- Backups
- Regular backups you can rely on, with restores we have actually tested.
- Security
- SSL, hardened configuration, and access restricted to the people and places you choose.
- Monitoring
- We watch it so you do not have to, and act before you notice.
Every application runs on our own European infrastructure. Your data stays in Europe, and you keep full access to it - no vendor lock-in, fully auditable, exportable whenever you ask.
What's included
Every managed application includes:
- Initial deployment and configuration
- SSL certificates, issued and renewed
- Monitoring and availability checks
- Security updates and patching
- Regular, tested backups
- Email integration where applicable
- DNS and domain configuration
- Direct support from the team that built your environment
Additional services such as disaster recovery, custom integrations and bespoke development are available on request.
Integration between applications
Because we host your applications on the same infrastructure, using open-source software and open standards, they can work together: single sign-on across Odoo, Nextcloud, email and messaging; telephony integrated with your CRM for caller ID and click-to-dial; files shared between applications without duplication; and calendar and contacts synchronised across services.
This is a natural advantage of managed open-source hosting - your applications share an environment rather than operating as isolated silos. Find out more about how your services can work together.
