Skylantix is privacy-first Nextcloud hosting with three tiers: Standard, Dedicated, and Managed. Standard is $12/month or $120/year, Dedicated is $30/month, and Managed is $60/month. All tiers include end-to-end encryption, Nextcloud Talk video conferencing, and California-based infrastructure. Your data stays on hardware we own.
Skylantix is founded and managed by Raphael Bitton, a University of Chicago student learning production infrastructure by managing real servers for real users. After graduation, I’m running this full-time from Orange County, California—where the servers live.
Due to the amount of effort and care that goes into each user, we can’t offer a traditional free trial, but we have a 14-day money-back guarantee. If Skylantix isn’t right for you within the first 14 days, we’ll refund your payment in full.
Unsure if this is right for you? Send us an email at [email protected] and we can keep the conversation in email.
Our goal is to never have to raise prices for existing members. We are planning to have an investment endowment to facilitate that. If, however, economic circumstances beyond our control require us to raise prices, we will give 90 days notice. Prices may be raised for new members as we grow in order to support infrastructure burden, but
We accept credit and debit cards through our secure payment processor. We also accept various cryptocurrencies. We don’t store credit card numbers.
Standard is $12/month or $120/year, Dedicated is $30/month, and Managed is $60/month:
All tiers include end-to-end encryption, Nextcloud Talk video calls, and all Nextcloud features.
Storage upgrades may be available in the future. For now, if you need more than your tier provides, reach out via [email protected] to discuss options.
