Application Hosting

Host 340+ apps with one-click installs.

Stores, forums, learning platforms, CRMs and more, installed in a few clicks from your DirectAdmin dashboard. Plans from $2.45/month.

Every NivaCity hosting plan includes Softaculous, which installs 340+ open-source apps in a few clicks. Application Hosting runs on the same four plans as our web hosting. The pages below help you choose the right plan for the app you want to run, and tell you honestly when an app needs a VPS instead.

Run your own apps too

Not everything comes from an installer. You can also run and deploy your own code on your hosting account.

  • Node.js apps

    Run Node.js applications on your hosting account and set them up from DirectAdmin.

  • Python apps

    Host Python web applications, such as Django and Flask projects, and set them up from DirectAdmin.

  • Git deploys

    Push your code with Git and deploy it to your hosting instead of uploading files by hand.

  • SSH access

    Log in over SSH to run commands and manage your files from the terminal.

Every app runs on these plans

Softaculous and free SSL are included on every plan.

Common questions

Quick answers to things people ask before signing up.

What is Softaculous?
Softaculous is an app installer built into your DirectAdmin control panel. Pick an app, fill in a short form, and it installs the app and its database in a few clicks.
Is application hosting different from web hosting?
It runs on the same four plans. These pages help you pick the right plan for a specific app. Whatever plan you choose, every app in the directory is available to install.
Can I run Node.js or Python apps?
Yes. You can run Node.js and Python apps on your hosting account, deploy with Git and log in over SSH, alongside anything you install from Softaculous.
Can I install more than one app?
Yes. Install as many as your plan allows, on your main domain, on subdomains or in folders.
Can Softaculous update my apps?
Yes. Softaculous can tell you when updates are available and upgrade your apps for you, taking a backup first.
What if my app needs more than shared hosting?
Some apps, like Magento, need services or resources that shared hosting cannot provide. The app pages say so, and point you to a VPS where it makes sense.

Pick an app and get started.

Plans from $2.45/month with Softaculous and free SSL included.
