HostFact review
A self-hosted suite for domains, provisioning, billing, portals and reseller workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
HostFact is self-hosted automation and billing software for hosting companies. It is designed for providers managing domain registrations, transfers, WHOIS, DNS, hosting and reseller accounts, SSL certificates, VPS services, invoices, payments, customer accounts and support tickets. Its customer portal and customizable order forms extend the workflow to customer-facing service management. The product is a particularly relevant fit for European hosts that need domain and reseller automation, with a stated focus on the Dutch market and its accounting and tax requirements.
The published monthly plans scale by active-customer capacity. Pakket 500 costs €20 per month and supports up to 500 active customers, while Pakket 2000 costs €40 per month and supports up to 2,000. Pakket Onbeperkt costs €80 per month and supports unlimited customers. All three plans include unlimited invoices, quotations, subscriptions, domains and hosting accounts. A 30-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan, and prices are shown excluding 21% VAT. The tier structure is straightforward for hosts that can estimate customer volume in advance.
HostFact’s platform fit is broad within hosting operations: it supports web, API and self-hosted deployment, plus integrations with domain registrars, hosting control panels, SSL providers, VPS platforms, DNS software, payment providers, accounting packages, collection agencies and CRM packages. API access and webhooks provide options for custom integrations. The main operational consideration is ownership of the installation: the software runs on the customer’s own server, and maintenance and updates are handled by the customer. Choose HostFact if you want hosting provisioning, domain automation and billing in one self-hosted system; consider another option if managed infrastructure is a priority.
