Renewable Energy

Every datacentre we use runs on 100% renewable energy - wind, solar, and hydropower, paired with energy-efficient hardware. We chose our partners specifically because of their renewable commitments, not despite them.

Beyond renewable infrastructure, we also offset carbon for every customer through our partnership with Ecologi. We commit 5% of every hosting fee to tree planting on your behalf - typically four or more trees per customer per month, at no additional cost to you.

Recognised in 2025 as Best Eco-Friendly Hosting & Development Provider at the SME News Awards, and runner-up for Green Business of the Year at the Petersfield Awards 2023.

Dedicated Umbraco hosting
FAQs

Wondering how dedicated hosting works? These are the questions we field most often about our servers and what comes as standard.

Yes!

We can provide a starter YAML file for either GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps to build and deploy your website.

These can be used with Umbraco 7, 8, 9 and 10+

The steps our starter YAML CI/CD can carry out are:

  • Checkout (inc submodules)
  • Generate CSS from SASS
  • Build using MSBuild
  • Deploy using Web Deploy
  • Tag repo on completion

We are able to provide more advanced or custom CI/CD integrations on request.

Yes!

We can install your Azure DevOps agent onto your server, open a support ticket and provide the generated PowerShell command including the PAT and we will handle the rest for you.

Yes. Daily automated backups come with every paid dedicated package, held both on site and off site. Retention and customisation options are listed in the backups tile above.

No. Root and administrator access remains with our team. Dedicated is a fully managed service, and the 99.9% SLA rests on us controlling the configuration. Software installs, setting changes and custom configurations all go through a support ticket, and our Certified Masters usually complete them within hours.

Where root or administrator access is genuinely required, unmanaged colocation is the better fit. That is a separate conversation we are glad to have.

Fully managed means the whole operational layer of your server sits with our team:

  • Initial setup: operating system install, runtime configuration, control panel, security hardening

  • Ongoing maintenance: patching, security updates, performance tuning and capacity monitoring

  • Issue resolution: proactive monitoring, with problems resolved before they reach your visitors

  • Configuration changes: software installation, settings and bespoke configuration on request

  • Migration support: inbound moves from another provider, between member states, or onto new hardware

You look after Umbraco and your application. Everything beneath it is ours.
