Security, databases, frameworks, backups and infrastructure — every capability is included as standard, no add-on cart required.
Every plan includes free auto-renewing Let's Encrypt SSL — keeping your visitors' data safe and your site trusted. Need EV or wildcard? Premium SSL upgrades are quick, easy and affordable.
Microsoft SQL Server Standard Edition with full-text search for advanced querying and indexing, plus MariaDB and MySQL — all manageable from Plesk Obsidian with no extra setup.
Microsoft guarantees uptime, but not your data. Every Plesk plan ships with Acronis Cyber Protect off-site backups plus VSS shadow copies — your sites, mail and databases are always recoverable.
Multiple PHP, ASP.NET, Node.js, Python and .NET Core runtimes side-by-side, plus legacy components such as ASPSMS, ASPUpload, ASPJPEG, JMail Pro and ASPPDF — each site in its own isolated app pool.
Reliability shouldn't cost extra. Every plan ships with a 99.99% uptime SLA, 600 Gbps Corero SmartWall DDoS mitigation and an integrated Web Application Firewall to keep your site online.
HPE ProLiant servers with hardware redundancy, enterprise NVMe SSD storage and a 100 Gbps Juniper-routed BGP network — built for mission-critical websites and .NET applications.
Plesk's built-in installer makes deploying WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento and 150+ other applications effortless. Pair that with full Microsoft framework support — Classic ASP, ASP.NET 4.x, .NET Core 8, Node.js and Python — all running inside isolated application pools so your sites stay fast, stable and secure.
