Enterprise Software: Open Source Hosting
Open-source software is powerful, license-free and independent – but someone has to operate it securely, keep it up to date and protect it from outages. That's exactly what we take care of: we host and operate your Twenty CRM, n8n, Nextcloud and other open-source tools in a GDPR-compliant way on European infrastructure. You get the freedom and data sovereignty of open source without having to worry about servers, updates, backups and security – including a dedicated point of contact whenever something does go wrong.
Challenges you'll recognise
- Your SaaS tools get more expensive with every new employee, and the per-user licences add up to a cost item nobody can justify anymore.
- You want to use open-source software, but nobody on the team has the time or know-how to operate, update and back it up securely.
- On data protection you're unsure where your data sits and whether processing by US providers is even clean.

Good to know
Open source ≠ free to operate
The licence is free, secure operation is not: servers, updates, backups and monitoring cost time and know-how. We take on exactly this operation – the software freedom stays, the effort disappears.
Data sovereignty is a competitive advantage
Anyone keeping their data on their own European infrastructure is independent of the pricing and feature changes of large providers and stands on solid ground when it comes to data protection.
Self-hosting needs real operation
An open-source app installed once quickly becomes a security risk without updates. Continuous patching, monitoring and tested backups are not an extra but the foundation of responsible operation.
