Open Source Hosting from Switzerland
Over 1,200 open-source apps, fully managed and operated in Swiss data centres.
100% Swiss hosting
Data centre in Zurich
End-to-end encrypted
Your data stays private
Daily backups
3-2-1 backup strategy
nFADP / GDPR
Fully compliant
Open-source software hands you back control over your tools: no vendor lock-in, no opaque price hikes, no data handed off to ad networks. The catch used to be operations — setting up servers, installing updates, checking backups. That's exactly what OpenHosting takes off your hands.
We run your open-source apps in Swiss data centres in the Zurich region. Your data is subject to Swiss law (nFADP) and stays out of reach of the US CLOUD Act. Security updates, monitoring and daily backups under a 3-2-1 strategy are included in the price — you use the software, we take care of everything else.
Whether it's cloud storage, a password manager, document management or marketing automation: from over 1,200 apps, we put together the right solution for your business and support you through the migration from your existing services.
Your benefits with OpenHosting
Swiss data residency
All data lives in data centres in the Zurich region — nFADP-compliant and outside the reach of the US CLOUD Act.
Fully managed
Installation, updates, monitoring and support all come from a single source. You need no in-house server expertise.
Daily backups
A 3-2-1 backup strategy with daily snapshots — hourly on request with the Business plan.
No lock-in
Open source means your data and workflows belong to you. A full export is possible at any time.
Why not just use a US cloud or self-host?
Many SMEs face a choice between big US cloud services and running their own servers. Both come with drawbacks that managed open-source hosting solves:
Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace
Data in US clouds, recurring price increases, and little control over what happens with metadata.
Self-hosting in the basement
Full control, but also full responsibility: security updates, outages and backups are on you — usually at night and on weekends.
A patchwork of SaaS subscriptions
A separate subscription and data silo for every task. Costs add up, and your data ends up scattered across half the globe.
