The TYPO3 experience with SaaS Web

Current version of TYPO3 preinstalled

SaaS Web uses the newest LTS (Long Term Support) package available directly from the community. You have all standard functionality at disposal with no constraint. You obtain an admin access and can manipulate the hosted TYPO3 instance as you wish.

Multisite setup

With a single TYPO3 core, you can build multiple sites - usually all extensions will be the same for these sites. Such a setup can be useful to create several landing pages.

Free staging environment while building the website

SaaS Web sets up a staging environment for one month for free so you can build the website without hassle. Once ready, SaaS Web will move it to production. If you desire, you can keep the staging website as test environment in order to check changes before applying them to the live site.

Standard theme selection

All available themes, free or not, can be used for the website. You have no restriction regarding theme usage.

Use self developed themes

You can upload your own themes for your website.

Free Piwik web statistics for visitor tracking

Piwik a an open source alternative to Google Analytics with the interesting advantage that the collected data is not shared with anyone else - only you will process the data.

Core, extensions and theme updates

SaaS Web uses monitoring software but also keeps informed via mailing lists, community memberships and personal contacts in order to update the systems and applications on time. Some updates are automatic, others are manual, all manipulation is monitored and safe, so that a broken update can be reverted directly without further consequences.

Free VPN secured admin area

For obvious security reasons, SaaS Web proposes to use a VPN access to manage your website. SaaS Web sets up a single access for free, if you need other accounts, they will be charged. After activation, it will not possible to access the admin backend without the VPN. This is a “natural” way for preventing brute force attacks as the backend is not accessible anymore from the Internet.

Daily full backups of the TYPO3 website

SaaS Web runs daily full backups of your website known as disaster recovery. In between, during update/upgrade actions, the shop might be backuped additionally (in case an update would fail, we can recover the website directly).
