CoreHost Immich review
A low-cost managed Immich host with mobile photo backup and daily restores.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Sep 2026
CoreHost Immich is managed cloud hosting for Immich, an open-source photo and video library. It suits solo users and small teams who want Immich without managing application updates or backups themselves. Access is available on the web and through native iOS and Android apps, which can automatically back up a phone's camera roll. Immich includes a timeline, albums, map and metadata search for organizing and finding a library.
Pricing starts with Power at $3.90 per month, with 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM and 20 GB NVMe. Scale costs $6.30 per month and includes 3 vCPU, 8 GB RAM and 40 GB NVMe. The published options are paid monthly plans, and Power is the minimum tier for Immich; smaller Lite and Standard tiers are not suitable for this application. A free trial offer provides $5 in starting credit without requiring a card. Choose a tier based on the compute and storage allocation you need, rather than expecting the smallest listed CoreHost plans to run Immich.
CoreHost handles automatic application updates, daily backups with one-click restore, and HTTPS through custom domains with automatically issued and renewed TLS. SFTP access is available for application data, and deployments can be placed in Australia, the United States or Poland. Support is offered through tickets and documentation, with 24/7 support listed. This arrangement is a fit for people who prioritize routine maintenance, restore options and native mobile backup; those seeking self-managed infrastructure or a free ongoing plan should look elsewhere.
CoreHost Immich pros and cons
- Where it wins
- Native iOS and Android apps can back up camera rolls automatically
- Daily backups include one-click restore
- Choose Australia, the United States or Poland deployment
- Where it doesn't
- No free plan; the required Power tier starts at $3.90 per month
- Only two listed compute tiers, with the larger Scale tier at $6.30 per month
- Hosting is cloud-only, so it does not suit self-hosted deployment
