Private servers, under your control

With fibre, a server in your office is as fast and reachable as the cloud. Your data never leaves the building.

Easier and cheaper than you think

Thanks to virtualisation, a complete server runs as a single file on a secure machine in your office. Prefer remote hosting? We run it in a European data centre instead.

We back everything up and keep a warm failover server ready if the hardware fails.

Failover and backups Your server in your office is linked to a failover server, ready if the hardware fails. Encrypted backups are kept in Brussels and Frankfurt. Your office Your server Failover server Brussels Frankfurt encrypted backups

Mail, calendars, contacts and files follow you on every device, under your own domain name.

Private mail server

IMAP keeps your mailbox identical on phone, laptop, tablet and browser.

Gmail scans your mail, stores it under US law, and rarely lets you reach a human. We offer the same convenience without the compromise:

  • webmail, automatic replies and forwarding
  • unlimited accounts, from a few to hundreds
  • no licence fees

Private cloud server

Google Drive and Dropbox are convenient, but your data sits on US servers, run by companies that analyse it.

Your own cloud syncs files, calendars and contacts on every device. You decide who gets access and how much space, from two users to two hundred.
