Simafri Managed VPS
Your server, run end to end by our team
The power of a machine that is yours alone, and the running of it that goes with it. Updates, security patches, application monitoring, a control panel, backups included: we take care of it, and we step in without you having to ask.
What we take on
The server runs, you do your job
Updates and patches
The system and its services are kept up to date by our team, security patches included, at the moment that suits your application.
Application monitoring
The machine and the applications running on it are followed alike, and we act as soon as a response starts to slip.
Control panel
Sites, domains, databases and mailboxes are managed from a clear interface, with no command line, by the people on your team who need it.
Backups included
The whole machine backed up from the outside, with nothing to install on it, and restored by our team on your request.
Dedicated IP and anti-DDoS
An address that belongs to you alone, and network filtering that stands in front of the machine at all times.
A team that takes over
When an alert comes in, action starts on our side, and you are told what was done.
Who does what
We run it, you move forward
A server asks for care every day, and that care is a craft. Simafri Managed VPS entrusts it to a team whose daily work it is, so that yours stays yours.
You, on your project
Your sites, your applications and your data, managed from the control panel by the people on your team who need it.
Us, on the machine
The system, the services, the patches, the monitoring, the backups and the interventions. We act on our own and we tell you what was done.

When the server has to run without taking your time
Built to fit
A machine sized around what you need

Two ways to have a server
Results, or hands on
Simafri Managed VPS
For those who want the result. Our team runs the machine end to end, updates and security patches included, with a control panel.
Simafri VPS
For those who want to keep their hands on it. You administer the machine with root access and install what you want; we hold backups, availability and the network. See Simafri VPS
A server that is run, not merely rented
Simafri Managed VPS is the same machine as Simafri VPS, with the running of it on top: the system and its services kept up to date, security patches applied, availability and applications monitored, backups taken and kept off the machine, and a team that steps in when an alert comes in. You open the control panel, your sites and mailboxes are there, and the machine underneath is our business.
The time it gives you back
A server that ages with nobody following it eventually reminds everyone it exists, and usually at the wrong moment. Handing over the running of it means winning back the hours that went into updates, certificates and restarts, and putting them where your business gains something.
Would you rather hold the machine yourself?
That is what Simafri VPS covers: full root access, the Linux distribution you choose, and the groundwork held by our team. And if what you need is software rather than a server, Pléiade builds it and runs it for you.
Frequently asked questions about Simafri Managed VPS
What does your team take on?
The running of the machine: updates and security patches, monitoring of availability and of the applications on it, backups, and interventions whenever something calls for a hand. That is the work you no longer carry.
Do I have to call you for something to be done?
Our team acts on its own: monitoring fires on our side, and the intervention follows. You are of course free to write to us whenever you like, and we keep you posted on what was done.
Is a control panel included?
Yes. Your sites, your domains, your databases and your mailboxes are managed from one interface, with no command line, and your team sees the state of the machine there day to day.
How do backups work?
The whole machine is backed up from the outside, with nothing to install on it, and backups are included in the subscription. Restores are done on request, by our team.
How do I choose between Simafri VPS and Simafri Managed VPS?
Simafri Managed VPS is for those who want the result: our team runs the machine end to end, with a control panel included. Simafri VPS is for those who want to keep their hands on it: you administer the machine and we hold the groundwork.
