A Managed Server is a dedicated server or VPS that is fully managed by PlanetNode. You receive exclusive server resources such as CPU, RAM, and storage, while we take care of security, updates, and monitoring.

Managed means that PlanetNode handles the technical management of your server. This includes security updates, monitoring, optimization, and support, allowing you to focus on your business.

Managed servers provide better performance, higher reliability, enhanced security, and reduced technical complexity. They are ideal for businesses that want maximum stability without managing servers themselves.
