Media3 ColdFusion Hosting review
A managed Adobe ColdFusion host for enterprise workloads with strong administration and database support.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Media3 ColdFusion Hosting provides managed Adobe ColdFusion Enterprise environments for developers, agencies, startups and enterprises. Its cloud-hosted service combines Adobe ColdFusion with Windows Server 2022 and IIS 10, while supporting web and Windows deployments. The offering covers shared-cloud single-site hosting, enterprise deployments and high-availability configurations, with MSSQL and MySQL database hosting available alongside application hosting.
Pricing is split between two monthly plans. CF Business costs $38 per month and includes Adobe ColdFusion Enterprise 2018–2023, 2.5 GB of cloud disk storage, two MSSQL databases, two MySQL databases and unmetered bandwidth. CF Business Advanced costs $49.50 per month and increases storage to 5 GB, with five MSSQL databases and five MySQL databases. Both plans include Windows Server 2022 and IIS 10. A 90-day free period gives teams time to assess the service before committing to a paid plan.
The strongest fit is for teams that want administration around the ColdFusion environment rather than an unmanaged server. Media3 handles migration assistance, ColdFusion hotfixes, operating-system updates and monitoring for applications, databases, CPU, memory and disk usage. High-availability load balancing and session persistence support enterprise deployments, while .NET, MSSQL and MySQL fit common Microsoft-oriented application stacks. Optional managed backups and disaster recovery add another operational layer, but they are not part of the entry plan. Choose Media3 for managed Adobe ColdFusion workloads, database support and availability features; choose an alternative if you need a broader runtime focus, included backups or a lower starting price.
