Less manual hosting administration

Automated account management and central control panels that reduced admin for lecturers, administrators and IT teams.

Reliable student web hosting

Individual student hosting accounts with cPanel access, delivered and supported at scale through teaching periods.

Secure infrastructure and migrations

SSL rollouts, out-of-hours migrations and secure cloud setups for teams handling personal student data.

Support that understands education

Plain-English, education-focused support — with case studies describing problems resolved in hours or even minutes.

Specialist education-sector delivery

Projects beyond standard hosting, from a heritage-funded Minecraft world to Microsoft 365 for an alternative provision.
