Installed in one click. Who operates it afterwards?
A preconfigured installation of NetBird makes it easier to get started. With birdhost, we also handle the agreed ongoing operation of your instance: updates, monitoring and backups.
On smaller screens, scroll sideways to compare both columns.
| Responsibility | One-click installation | With our managed hosting |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | The software is deployed with an initial configuration. This alone does not establish ongoing operational responsibility. | You receive a dedicated instance with the described ongoing operations, not just an initial installation. |
| Updates and security patches | An installed version needs ongoing maintenance. Check who handles updates and which components are covered. | We handle updates and security patches for NetBird and the components we operate within the agreed hosting scope. |
| Monitoring and incidents | After installation, responsibility for monitoring the instance and handling technical incidents still needs to be established. | We monitor the instance around the clock. Support response times and service hours follow your selected tier. |
| Backups | A running application is not a backup. Setup, retention and restoration responsibilities need to be agreed. | Automatic backups are part of hosting. Retention and restoration follow the agreed service scope. |
One-click describes deployment, not the ongoing service scope. These offers may also include operational services. Check the agreed responsibilities, not just the server price.

When the instance is not enough
Dedicated relay locations, dedicated infrastructure, custom DNS setups and on-premise deployments are arranged individually. That is a question of infrastructure, not of support tier, and is therefore quoted separately.
Discuss a configurationDo you also need multi-factor authentication and your own user directory in front of the VPN? We operate Authentik as a separate instance for that.
See managed AuthentikAll prices are net, plus statutory VAT. This offer is directed exclusively at businesses within the meaning of § 14 German Civil Code, not at consumers.
Business, Priority, Production and Critical include the first covered workload in a customer environment. Further covered workloads cost 29.90 €, 49.90 €, 69.90 € and 99.90 € per month respectively.
The flexible operations allowance applies to planned work during regular service hours and expires at month end. Operations, monitoring, backups, maintenance and updates within the agreed scope do not reduce it. Additional and incident work costs €120 net per hour in 6-minute increments during regular service hours and €240 net per started hour outside them.
Production and Critical require technical acceptance. Critical is capacity-limited. Response targets apply to P1 incidents through the agreed ticket system, not to every request or a guaranteed resolution time.

WZ-IT projectInfrastructure ModernizationGermany
Communication with WZ-IT was open, friendly and professional from the very beginning. Mr. Wevelsiep and Mr. Zins responded to every one of our questions patiently, promptly and respectfully, and contributed their own suggestions and good ideas on how to modernize our server infrastructure and adapt it even better to our needs. Throughout, WZ-IT consistently kept our need for data sovereignty and GDPR compliance in mind. Even short-notice adjustments and change requests from our side were implemented quickly and patiently and integrated consistently into the overall concept. From planning to the final handover, every step was documented transparently and comprehensively - so if a provider change should ever become necessary, the documentation would let us onboard a successor into our infrastructure very quickly. We are extremely satisfied with WZ-IT and hope to continue working together for a long time.
