No more maintenance headaches!
Finaly, I can relax and not bother with maintenance. Each of the softwares that we run on DANIAN is automated and running stable for couple months already. They even assist us with modifying the DNS records. Once we needed to modify the config of Nextcloud so that we are able to upload higher than 5GB files and they assisted us fast. I also love their documentation!

Kevin Blackwell

Best managed service
I previously ran Peertube, Mastodon, Mattermost and Mirotalk on other providers before switching to DANIAN. I was tired of handling the updates and backups myself. Not only that the performance is "out of this world" fast, but their tech support is amazing. Since then I added 5-10 more Apps on my account. I also love how they add more softwares on their list constantly!

Love the personalized service!

n8n runs excellent

David Hartmann

Smooth experience
I needed a way to manage the projects and files for my company. This was the first time I learn about opensource. I asked their support and livechat and they assisted me immediately. I started with Openproject. Later I added Nextcloud. My team were able to get used to the apps fast.

Love the freedom
I wanted to use a crm for my startup. I signed up for the free trial. Tried out espocrm and dolibar and picked one. Their dashboard is very easy for a beginner. I recommend them and feel confident in choosing them.
Elias Koch

Wow just wow
After discovering DANIAN, I wished I'd found them sooner — their solution is excellent and deserves wider recognition. Very good solution!

Tyler Hollander

Professional tech support!

Bastian Engel

Their support team is the best!
I had a problem with my card and the subscription could not be renewed in time. I notified their support and surprisingly, they showed much understanding. They basically left my apps run until I solved the card issue. Other providers would have deleted my data in a heartbeat. This is the way to build client-vendor trust!

George Adams

Fair price and fast
4 months ago I activated n8n, Uptime kuma, Vaultwarden and Paperlessngx. So far everything is perfect. The performance of all apps is excellent. I contacted their support team couple times for using custom subdomains for the apps and they were fast and kind. I'm constantly recommending them to my network!

Atanas

Vaultwarden 10/10
I wanted to selfhost a passwords manager for my company but I didn't trust the mainstream providers. I tried out Vaultwarden for the free trial. I loved how their support team communicated with me professionally but still kind. I know that I can contact them whenever with whatever question I have. Recommended!

Edward Nelson

Everything just works!
My focus is on my business, not running servers. I love that I can lauch any app without having to think about the tech behind it. Everything just works!
Tony Roy

Awesome support team!

Filip

Very proactive!
Today couple of the videos on my Peertube got viral. Before I even noticed, their support have notified me via email that they proactively upgraded my app with more cpu & ram so that it continues to work without any downtime. They left the upgraded app with the added resources for couple days until the traffic stabilizes. After that I had the possiblity to stay on the same plan or keep the upgraded plan. Out of gratitude I stayed on the upgraded one.

Luke Hall

Win-win!
I run a web design biz. After I perform the work for my clients, they constantly ask me for more software solutions. So I partnered with DANIAN. Not only I provide the requested softwares for my clients and get the increased revenue boost by delegating all to DANIAN, but also for those clients that wish to order directly from DANIAN, I send them an affiliate link. Win-win on all sides!

Awesome customer service
I needed to add analytics on my website but I didn't know anything about DNS. Their team guided me at all phases and they performed the changes for me. Additionally they were transparent and notified me of every change applied and steps performed.

Gabriele Marino

Good admin dashboard
Not only that I got Chatwoot, I also have access to the management dashboard. I love that I can view my hourly/daily usage and perform manual backups and restorations if needed. I don't need the level of control but it feels good to know that I have it if I need it.

Great service!
I configure custom Matomo tracking for my clients as a monthly service. Many of my clients were asking if they can selfhost Matomo instead of using the Cloud service. My employee recommended DANIAN. Basically, I can activate as much Matomo's in any of 20+ countries the same day. Additionally the affiliate revenue is a nice bonus.

Jacob Turner

Smooth experience
I was listing through youtube tuts on how to install Bookstack myself. Then randomly, I found their video playlist exactly for Bookstack. Got curious and went at their website. For the same price (or higher) that I would pay for just the VPS, with them I'm getting a fully managed Bookstack. It's a no-brainer decision!

Mason Hayes

Its a great service
Its a great service. I love the performance of my Mastodon community. It keeps on growing and I don't have any worries about backups, secuirity, updates, etc.

Vinícius Rocha

Very intuitive solution!
I wanted to use a nocode software for my company. A friend recommended them so I tried both Baserow and NocoDB, couple days later picked one.

USE CASES
Three teams who run OpenProject on DANIAN
These are representative team types we set up most often. Each starts with the same flat €9 plan.
45-PERSON ENGINEERING TEAM
Leaving Jira ahead of the 2028 Data Center renewal cliff
A B2B SaaS engineering team running Jira Data Center since 2019. Atlassian's 2026 Data Center end-of-sale closed off renewals from 2028. The team chose managed OpenProject over Jira Cloud to avoid Maximum Quantity Billing and keep work-package data on infrastructure they specify. Region: Germany. DANIAN configured the OpenProject Jira Migrator (GA in 17.4), GitHub commit integration, and SAML SSO via Okta. Migration of three Jira projects (~12,000 issues): one weekend.
25-PERSON AEC FIRM
BIM coordination on an instance that doesn't share a cloud tenant
An architecture and structural-engineering firm running mid-size commercial projects. Their workflow lives in IFC and BCF, not Jira. DANIAN deployed the OpenProject BIM image (-slim-bim), allocated extra RAM for the xeokit IFC viewer, raised the attachment ceiling to 500 MB, and installed the Revit Add-In for two seats. Region: Singapore. Daily off-site backups capture both the database and the BCF issue history. The team's IFC files stay on infrastructure they control, not a shared SaaS tenant.
120-PERSON MUNICIPAL AUTHORITY
A sovereign-cloud project tool that meets procurement standards
A regional public-sector body migrating off Microsoft Project after a state-wide open-source mandate. DANIAN configured an Enterprise-tier OpenProject instance with LDAP group sync to the agency's identity provider, OIDC single sign-on, antivirus scanning on attachments, and baseline comparison enabled for procurement record-keeping. Region: Spain, the closest datacenter to the agency's primary office. The project tool replaced six MS Project Online sites at a fraction of the per-seat license cost they previously paid.
COMPARISON
Four ways to run OpenProject
The choice is rarely OpenProject versus a competitor — OpenProject won the self-hostable Jira-alternative question years ago. The choice is how you run it. Four paths, scaled at 10, 25, and 50 users, with both the cash and the time cost shown.
| PATH | 10 USERS | 25 USERS | 50 USERS | DAY-TO-DAY WORK |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jira Cloud Standard (per-seat) | $79/mo annual | $198/mo annual | $377/mo annual | None — Atlassian runs the platform. Data Center sunset blocks the on-prem path from 2026-03-30. |
| Self-host on a $24 production-class VPS | ~€100–280/mo | ~€100–280/mo | ~€140–320/mo (scale up VPS) | 5–10h setup, 2–4h/month for patching, backups, certificate rotation, on-call |
| Home server (HP ProLiant ML30 Gen10, ~€1,200) | €210–667/mo | €210–667/mo | €280–750/mo | Hardware admin, electricity, business-class internet, off-site backup, ops time |
| DANIAN Managed OpenProject | €9/mo | €9/mo | €9/mo | Zero. We do the patching, backups, monitoring, and on-call. |
BY INDUSTRY
OpenProject for specific industries
OpenProject is unusually broad for a single application — the same work-package model that scaffolds a five-person engineering sprint also scaffolds a multi-year construction project and a multi-grant research portfolio. Five industries put specific demands on the configuration.
