Our verdict on Altovar Cloud Hosting

Altovar Cloud Hosting is described as shared PHP and MySQL hosting on EU infrastructure, with FTP/SFTP file access, a control panel, databases, and support for static sites. It is aimed at solo operators and small businesses that need conventional hosting for a PHP site, a MySQL-backed project, or static files. Its listed capabilities do not make it a fit for buyers specifically seeking Docker hosting: the service description presents shared hosting rather than container deployment. For that reason, choose it for a small conventional website, not for a container-based deployment requirement.

According to the vendor's published plans, billing is monthly and there is no free plan. Hobby costs €5 per month and includes 1 vCPU and 512 MB RAM; Starter is €15 per month with 2 vCPU and 2 GB RAM; Pro is €45 per month with 4 vCPU and 8 GB RAM; Business is €120 per month with 8 vCPU and 16 GB RAM. This gives buyers a clear progression in listed compute resources, but those tiers do not change the core positioning described: shared PHP/MySQL hosting. Buyers should compare their expected resource needs with the plan highlights and select another category-specific provider if they need Docker deployment.

The feature set is centered on website fundamentals: PHP and MySQL shared hosting, MySQL or MariaDB databases, FTP/SFTP access, free TLS certificates, and static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript hosting. Upstream provider snapshots are also listed. This mix suits a small site that needs familiar file and database access, but the narrow focus is a limitation for teams evaluating hosting around Docker workloads. Altovar is the more relevant choice for conventional small-site hosting; buyers whose requirement is container deployment should look elsewhere.
