For schools, training providers & corporate learning teams
Moodle hosting that someone actually looks after.
We host, update, back up and monitor your Moodle site, so your team can focus on courses and learners.
Self-managed Moodle sites fall behind: missed security releases, plugins that break on upgrade, slow pages at exam time, and backups nobody has tested.
Moodle releases a major version every six months and minor updates about every two months. Keeping up takes steady, specialist attention, which is what managed hosting gives you.
Our team brings 15+ years of combined Moodle experience, led by a founder and CTO who has implemented Moodle since 2016.
What's included
Everything your Moodle site needs.
Secure hosting
Servers set up and hardened for Moodle, with HTTPS and access controls.
Backups
Your courses, files and database backed up, so a mistake or failure is recoverable.
Updates & security releases
Moodle and plugin updates applied and tested, so you stay on a supported version.
Performance tuning
Tuned for busy periods, drawing on our experience with high-concurrency and multi-tenant sites.
Uptime monitoring
Your site is watched, so problems are spotted and fixed early.
Technical support
Help for admins and instructors, across time zones, from our Nairobi team.
How it works
A clear process, tested before it goes live.
- We review your requirements: number of learners, courses, plugins and integrations.
- We set up the server and Moodle, or move your existing site onto a test copy.
- You check courses, users and plugins on the test copy before anything goes live.
- We switch over and keep the site updated, backed up and monitored.
- Your team gets support whenever they need it.
Good to know
What changed in recent Moodle releases.
- Moodle 5.x needs PHP 8.2 or later, so many older servers can't run it without changes.
- From Moodle 5.1, the web server must point at a new
publicfolder. We handle that configuration for you. - We recommend long-term support (LTS) releases for most organisations: Moodle 5.3 LTS has security support until 1 October 2029.
