10/10 customer service
I use Elestio to host n8n. I had a DNS error that I could not figure out on my own, so I opened a ticket with support.
They had it fixed under 24h hours, and Thomas even took the time to share some insights about the solution with me.
The support team either breaks or builds a company, and I had a 10/10 experience with Elestio's.
Elest.io makes it easy to set up
Elest.io makes it easy to set up various services. I encountered three issues on my end, and each time, their support team responded in under 10 minutes and resolved the problems quickly. I’d recommend it even if not for the platform's reliability alone, just for their fast and responsive support team.
Elestio: True asset to the FOSS ecosystem
Elestio is an incredible service and a true asset to the FOSS ecosystem. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on open, accessible tools and support, and Elestio delivers on all fronts. Their platform makes it easy for individuals and organizations without dedicated DevOps teams to access the infrastructure they need—with speed, reliability, and professionalism.
The Elestio team is absolutely top-notch. Our servers were up and running within minutes, and every question we had was answered immediately and professionally. Special thanks to the three Thomases—yes, all three!—and the rest of the amazing team. Amit on the Discord server has also been fantastic—responsive, helpful, and clearly dedicated to building a strong, supportive community around the product.
We currently run multiple servers through Elestio and fully intend to continue doing so for years to come. Five stars isn’t enough. Thank you all for your work and support!

First week of elest.io and I am very happy
I have been using elest.io for a week now and I have to say that being treated like a VIP is great! I had an issue with my server configuration and after checking so many forums I gave up but then thought let me try elest.io support. And I got my issue fixed in less that 15 mins. Amazing. Just wish I had emailed them 2 days ago!!! Thanks elest.io Support
Learning curve softened by great support
Honestly I barely knew what I was doing when I originally set up my instance. Their support was always extremely fast and there to help guide me - no shortcuts. I would highly recommend these guys for an experienced user but particularly an inexperienced user as they'll really soften the learning curve. 10/10!
Always fantastic service
Always fantastic service. Never a problem with them - couldn't fault Elestio for anything, amazing company, highly recommend!
Couldn't be better!
I'm in the IT industry for over 25 years and there are may service but elestio stands out in many ways. You can feel that the developers are perfectionists because every detail of the service is just perfect. Nobody can imagine the effort they put into it! What makes it special is the support and their responding to tickets! It's always perfect and often way beyond my expectations! I couldn'd recommend this service more!
Very Intuitive product so Far !
Excellent video documentation on Youtube, very good product so far!
It seems to make my life so much easier when it comes to hosting no-code tools such as Baserow, n8n or Supabase!
Great experience!
I just recently switched to elestio, and I am very glad I did! I love the simple and clean layout that is easy to navigate. A big shout out to Thomas for his very helpful support and amazing response time.

Makes it super easy to self host various services in different cloud providers.

Will keep using for other services
Had cause to try an Open Source App…
Had cause to try an Open Source App that was hosted by Elestio. Everything worked 'as advertised' and even when I had a hiccup in understanding how the App had to be configured, Elestio Support stepped in helped - even though it didn't really have anything to do with the platform side of things. It is super easy to setup and get started and, more importantly, it is just as easy to stop & cancel. Honestly worth a try if you are looking to get off the SAAS treadmill and try some open source alternatives.
God I love you guys!
God I love you guys!! You’ve always been great with support and timely at answering questions, and the service is fantastic! Seriously one of my top 3 companies if not the top 1st 🥇 I recommend Elest.io to everyone looking for help with self hosting software without much technical experience :)
Service
Very good service. Whenever I need the staff I always ask and they help me a lot.
AIO package
great support, lots of tutorials, easy usage, AIO package
Pretty dead simple.
Pretty dead simple to get any open source software started. Like a DigitalOcean marketplace on steroids.

Used it for our club ERP
I was able to spin up Dolibarr for our recovery club and not have to worry about any of the implementation.
Really great service.
Very helpful support
I must say, Elest.io offers incredibly helpful support. They assisted me in setting up a somewhat complex project. Despite encountering numerous errors, their support team diligently resolved every issue and even took the initiative to set it up for me. It felt like they were personally invested in the project! Overall, my experience with Elest.io and their team has been immensely helpful, and I couldn't recommend it more.
Responsive Collaborative, No complaints, Just Great
Deployed a couple of Apps and I used my VM, since I'm not that tech-savvy, there were some server-side configurations that I had to do. Elestio team responded fast and I was able to get my service up and running.
Awesome cloud hosting experience
I recently tried Elestio's cloud hosting and it was an awesome experience! Their website is very easy to use. Even if you're not a tech expert, you can easily manage your projects.
Their customer support team is outstanding. They are quick, know their stuff, and are very helpful. They solved all my problems fast and clearly, even deploying a custom service in less than a day.
Elestio’s hosting service is also very reliable. My applications ran smoothly and quickly, with no downtime. This is really important for my business. They also offer flexible and affordable options to adjust resources as needed.
Overall, if you need reliable and easy-to-use cloud hosting, I highly recommend Elestio. They have exceeded my expectations!
It’s good
It’s good, for a small business definitely a way to go.
Quick attention to issues
I have had cause to send three (3) tickets. On each occasion, the attention to my concerns were ptomptly addressed.
Managed open-source hosting, done well
I didn't need to look any further for a seamless, straightforward solution. We needed to run several open-source software services for internal business applications, and elest.io had them all ready to go.
Easy setup of open source software on VPS
Without much knowledge of server/VPS management I was able to set up some open source apps, with clear indications of costs. I won't have to worry about backups or upgrades of the software, as it will be taken care of, I only need to focus on using the software.
Fast and excellent support
Fast and excellent support! Thanks for Thomas's help to configure the domain for our project. He did more than I could ever expect and save a lot of effort for me! REALLY APPREACIATED!
Great service & support
Great service & support. They fixed an issue I had with an automatic upgrade within about 15 minutes of sending my support request!
Excellent platform and support
Excellent platform and support. I've been using Elestio for several months and they make it very easy to utilize OSS, and they have great support to help with issues getting set up. I highly recommend it.
A Non-Technical User's Dream Come True
As someone who isn't tech-savvy, I've found the Elestio platform absolutely invaluable in helping me set up my apps quickly. I'm still surprised Elestio isn’t a household name yet.
Their team made deploying my no-code projects feel effortless. With just one click, I can scale my infrastructure, and the pricing couldn’t be more affordable and straightforward. But the highlight for me has been the customer service. A heartfelt thanks to Thomas and the team for their fast, thorough, and incredibly helpful responses.
If you're considering Elestio, my advice is to go for it. The process has been quick, easy, and incredibly smooth for me. I couldn't be happier with my choice.
Best service of all
I have been trying over 10 similar services. This is the best one. Fastest and politest support.
The support from Elestio is very fast…
The support from Elestio is very fast and enormously helpful as one would wish. The simplicity yet flexibility impresses me a lot. The pricing model is also fair and transparent. 5 stars for Elestio!
Elest.io takes the stress out of…
Elest.io takes the stress out of service management. I was particularly impressed with their support team's ability to alter management and deployment ports, such that my service (SFTP) is available at its native port - something that is sort of an uncommon request. Elest.io delivered, and it is clear that they are willing to work with you to ensure your deployment is successful and reliable, even when your requirements are unique.
I am extremely pleased with the Elestio
I am extremely pleased with the Elestio product line and the customer service. Their implementation is more simple and easy to start (for those non-techy) compared to other self-hosting services that I've tried. I had some minor set up issues that the team handled promptly. They go above and beyond by reaching out to check and make sure all my questions are answered and needs are met. I run a busy medical practice and plan to introduce their products into my patient base to build an online community. I am confident knowing I can grow with Elestio and also refer to them as I spread the word of self hosting.
Love it, saves me hours
Love it, I haven’t come across a more complete platform where you can spin up an instance of any open source software within minutes.
I was amazed the dashboard even gives you access to VS Code for editing, a file explorer, terminal..however you need to access it you can.
The support is also great, I managed to migrate woocommerce/wordpress shop over in few hours with the help.
Soo glad I found elestio and highly recommend it!
Quick deployment of Moodle and very good support
A few days ago I registered an account, launched the free trial.
I activated a moodle site, and after an issue was quickly solved by the support team the moodle site was up and running.
Now I had an old moodle site on my webspace that I didn't know how to upgrade because of database and php version issues that I don't know how to handle ( I'm a teacher, I have some tech skills but not enough ). I decided I should try getting my old moodle data into this new site. I uploaded a backup...and it just worked 🙂 I've just begun using elestio but so far I'm totally satisfied with the service and support. Thank you elestio. I hope more people will know about this platform.
Great support
I did something wrong with my n8n server. Elestio support quickly responded and fixed the issue within 4 hours.
Self-hosted GitLab
Thanks to Elestio we were able to migrate all our GitLab projects to a self-hosted instance in a short time, cutting costs effectively
Really great managed open source…
Really great managed open source services that helps to streamline FLOSS self hosting. I first came across Elestio while I was searching for installation guides and reviews of some open source tools I was evaluating.
Very impressed by the ease and the intuitive ways the dashboard and automation config have been designed, the wealth of services and hosting options they offer. Really save hours of manual updates and maintenance.
Response from support has also been really speedy, comprehensive and kind.
Brilliant customer service
I have been a customer of Elest.io for about 2-3 months now and they have been great. They have gone above and beyond what I expected from customer services, even helping me with some software issues. I am really pleased that my forum is hosted with them as I trust their service. Thank you!
I discovered Elestio 1 year ago and…
I discovered Elestio 1 year ago and have been using it ever since to deploy most of my workloads, I started with prestashop and WordPress sites, I was very impressed by performance and the management dashboard. Then I discovered tons of other amazing open source available there like Typebot to create AI based chatbots. I would like to mention Thomas from support is amazing, he provided detailed answers very quickly (Rest of the team is also great but special thanks to him)
Unique service.
I don't understand why this company is not better known. I have been using several shared hosting. I needed more speed but I didn't want the headaches of an unmanaged cloud hosting. So, et voila, here it is elest.io. Now I have a fast virtual server using first-class cloud hosting providers but fully managed, and for a price very close to my old shared hosting.
Also, I find the support second to none. Staff is super helpful, sometimes way beyond the call of duty, and easily approachable by email and also by discord chat, which gives the feeling that you will never be alone if you have a problem.
10 points for these guys!
Game changer for non-technical folks who need a no code solution.
I was watching a demo video for a database project I'm working on and saw the host use this service. One click was all it took to install a database solution. As a non expert in this area, that caught my attention. I've been using Elestio ever since. Just this morning they fixed a small issue with one of the open source packages I was working on. Fast and easy. The team at Elestio is amazing. Give them a try.
A young but passionate company working their a$$e$ off.
It is a young company but with a great deal of passion for what they do!
The best part is that their discord and support are top-notch, so even when things aren't 100% working or, what counts is that they really do give their best all the time. Maybe a metric that can explain the service in the best way: the number of unsolved issues or issues that are solved in an unacceptable timeframe is 0.
An incredible dev ops platform that save weeks of work maintaining apps and open source services
My clients and my company cloud services are know well structured, safe, backed-ups, and I have a large choice of providers and VMs to host them.
I can easily deploy CI / CD, and a lot of open source services for my apps of for our internal tools in seconds.
I have a lot of tools to be able to maintain easily the services.
Before finding elest.io, I wasted weeks and weeks in dev ops, maintaining open source services on-premise on my VM and those of my clients. Today, elest.io give me a solution to save that time, and through an interface well thought.
If you encounter a problem, the support is really reactive and help you kindly.
This is the best managed hosting I've ever used
TL;DR: Elestio is awesome!
I previously ran Wordpress, Mastodon, and Peertube instances on other providers before switching to Elestio because I was tired of handling software updates myself.
Elestio has done a much better job than any of my previous providers, both in terms of reliable updates and at going the extra mile to help with support. I don't think I've ever gotten such quick replies to my support tickets in the 15+ years that I've used various hosting providers.
The other features (such as easy to setup block storage volumes, automatic VPN networking between your virtual machines even if they are in different data centers, etc.) are quite convenient too.
I really can't overstate how happy I am with Elestio and how highly I recommend them.
Great service
I ran into elestio early this year, and boy was I happy to have found this service. Although I’ve only used elestio for development purposes upto now, the first service that got created 10 months ago, is still up and running and the software (n8n workflow automation) has been kept up-to-date ever since. As a database developer, my main focus is producing user friendly apps and portals, and being able to get things up and running (and forget about them), is really comforting. Currently, I’m evaluating a new stack for building internal tools, based on open-source software. For this I’m looking at BudiBase, Supabase and Redash. When you’re looking for a new open source product, take a look a the available products on elestio’s website. If it’s there, it’s probably worth your while. And then you’re just a few clicks and a few minutes away from running your first elest.io service. Enjoy!
Elestio is an A++ Managed Hosting Service
I have worked for companies such as GoDaddy and A2 Hosting. I have been on the support side of things for a lot of different companies. Elestio is hands down the best experience I've had with a hosting company.
There are no upsells. They provide top-notch service, fast, and with no hidden fees. They actually help you manage your server. They don't need to upsell, because the service upsells for them.
Deploying a server with Elestio is a breeze, and they walk you through every step of it. I highly recommend their service.
Have recently started to use elest.io…
Have recently started to use elest.io and am finding them brilliant so far.
I look forward to working with them in the coming months and will provide a more detailed feedback.
But as far as initial impressions go, they are very good :).
Elestio evaluation…
I am in the process of evaluating elestio. The pre-sales support is just awesome, technically very competent and really lightning fast. For me this is the best basis for starting a wonderful relationship! I will write another review once I will have installed the first applications based on the elestio environment. So far their service has really been outstanding.
Great service!
I have from my first use of services from Elest.io received extremely fast and competent service. The different services available in the plattform covers all my organization needs and Elest.io have been very responsive to consider addig additional services.
Elestio Rocks!
I have say the sign-up process was very easy - and found the elestio support to be very responsive, friendly and helpful
Hidden gem of a product!
Disclaimer: I've been a beta tester for elest.io and I've seen the platform evolve since 2020.
It's hard to fully explain how much of a paradigm shift elestio is - all I can say is that it has made a massive impact in how I plan and deploy services for my businesses.
I'm a technical co-founder of multiple companies with very small tech teams, so I tend to rely on SaaS products instead of 'rolling my own' infrastructure for things, because I don't want to accept all the responsibilities and difficulties of provisioning SSL certificates, software & OS updates, backups, etc.
