The 360 VIER case study at a glance

360VIER GmbH, a leading WordPress agency in the DACH region, decided in favour of Raidboxes back in 2015 after years of problems with traditional hosters. From security vulnerabilities and slow loading speeds to inadequate support — the list of challenges was long. Raidboxes promptly impressed with a clear, user-friendly dashboard with outstanding support and top performance that continues to facilitate the agency’s growth and daily tasks to this day. Today, 360VIER hosts almost all of its customer projects with Raidboxes.

Our challenges before the collaboration

  • Security problems
  • Unsatisfactory charging speeds
  • Support without WordPress expertise

“Before working with Raidboxes, we had considerable challenges in the hosting sector. Traditional shared hosting providers repeatedly proved to be a weak point: very susceptible to security problems, unsatisfactory loading speeds for our WordPress websites and support that had little to no WordPress expertise.

So we tried to either hand over the hosting completely or set up complicated setups ourselves with Azure and AWS. The result: a lot of effort, unnecessary sources of error and less focus on what we actually do best – creating great websites.”

The decision phase

“The decision to use Raidboxes as our host was an easy one — and one that was made almost a decade ago. Torben wrote to us in October 2015 when we were in the process of launching an affiliate site. It quickly became clear that we were creating something that perfectly matched our requirements. That same month, we set up our first box — one of the first at the time with the number 3323. Today, almost 10 years later, we operate over 190 boxes on Raidboxes — from Starter to Enterprise, and almost all of our customers run on this platform.

What convinced us? A combination of simple and clear usability, a bulletproof system that we can rely on 100% and performance that sets standards. In 2015, there was nothing comparable in Germany — and from our point of view, nothing has changed to this day.

While classic mass hosters with email packages and web space are aimed at a low-cost segment that is hardly viable for serious business projects, Raidboxes offers exactly what we need: an efficient, reliable setup that is suitable for all our customers’ requirements – from small projects to large enterprise solutions. A real game changer for us as an agency.”

The migration to Raidboxes

“The move to Raidboxes in 2015 didn’t go quite as smoothly as it does today — but that’s no wonder, as the platform was still in its infancy back then.

What impressed us right from the start was the outstanding support. No matter how specific our requirements were, the team was always at our side and looked for solutions, even if some things were not immediately realisable due to the bulletproof approach.

It didn’t even have to be perfect, because none of the alternatives were anywhere near as good as Raidboxes at the time in 2015. Other hosters had their noticeable weaknesses, and Raidboxes was already the best choice back then, despite some minor stumbling blocks. With every move and every box, the process got even better, and today the setup is so smooth that we can concentrate on the essentials — without hosting stress.”

Solution and improvements with Raidboxes

  • 100 % uptime
  • First-class support
  • High security standards
  • Box logic (separate box for each customer website)
  • Intuitive dashboard with many convenient functions
  • Very good website performance (especially caching)

“Since moving to Raidboxes, we have seen a number of improvements that make our day-to-day work much easier. Mind you, in 2015 we were a small team of around 8 people. Today, we are 45 employees – and Raidboxes has always been a reliable partner in this growth.

The boxes per customer in particular, which we can easily copy and control individually, have helped us enormously. No unnecessary Plesk, but a clear and functional dashboard that offers all the important functions. That was and still is a real game changer for us.

In addition, the support has always been first-class and is still one of the biggest plus points. No matter how specific our requirements are, the Raidboxes team is always on hand quickly and competently.

Raidboxes is unbeatable in terms of performance – a particular highlight is the new cache with Raidboxes 2.0. We have almost 100% uptime, extremely high speeds and have not had a significant security incident on the machines since 2015. This is not a matter of course in our industry and clearly sets Raidboxes apart from other hosters. So if you’re still hesitating, don’t lose much, just test it out.”

The outlook

“As previously mentioned, we host the websites of almost all of our customers at Raidboxes. We want to keep it that way in the future. The platform offers everything we need, and the performance, security and user-friendliness are unbeatable for us. We look forward to continuing to work with Raidboxes in the future and utilising the great performance of the platform.”
