Unmanaged means you are the administrator of your server: you decide which software to install, when to apply updates, and how to configure security. We do not access the contents of your server except to investigate a confirmed Acceptable Use Policy violation or a valid legal request.
In exchange, unmanaged hosting is priced lower than managed alternatives, and you are never blocked by a provider-imposed control panel or restricted permission set. Our support team remains available for deployment and configuration questions, even though ongoing administration is in your hands.

Install, remove, and configure software without a provider-imposed permission set.

Available depending on the plan tier you choose.
