📄 Editorial Review

AcuGIS is a specialist GIS hosting, deployment, support, training, and consulting provider with a history dating to 2011. The brand was originally launched by Enciva, LLC and acquired by MapFig, Inc. in December 2015. It is currently operated by Cited, Inc. (citedcorp.com), a Delaware corporation based in Wilmington.

David Ghedini is the founder and CTO associated with AcuGIS, while Robert Williger serves as co-founder and CEO of Cited Corp. AcuGIS operates with a relatively small specialist team, with its LinkedIn company profile placing it in the 2–10 employee range. Its services reach customers in more than 80 countries, while the broader Cited organization works with more than 1,200 clients across over 86 countries.

AcuGIS is not a conventional hosting company centered on WordPress, inexpensive shared hosting, or generic server packages. Its portfolio is built around PostgreSQL, PostGIS, GeoServer, GeoNode, QGIS Server, mobile data collection, spatial metadata, map publishing, geospatial reporting, and open-source GIS administration.

The entry-level PostGIS hosting service combines PostgreSQL and PostGIS with cPanel, website hosting, email, backups, SSH, SFTP, FTP, PgRouting, and support for PHP, Node.js, Perl, and Python. It provides a practical environment for developers and organizations that need a managed spatial database without administering an entire server.

Dedicated PostGIS plans operate on individual virtual machines and add larger resource allocations, database snapshots, SSL, administrative tools, and optional website, DNS, and email hosting. Full server access makes these plans more suitable for custom applications and production workloads that require greater control.

The separate pg_tileserv hosting range combines PostgreSQL and PostGIS with pg_tileserv and pg_featureserv. These services are especially useful for applications that need vector tiles, spatial feature APIs, and direct integration with custom web mapping systems.

AcuGIS provides both shared and dedicated GeoServer hosting. Shared packages combine GeoServer with PostGIS, cPanel, website hosting, email, DNS, backups, and remote access. Dedicated GeoServer packages run on individual virtual machines with NVMe storage and can include MapStore2, Lizmap, G3W-Suite, or pg_tileserv without an additional application charge.

The specialized GeoServer for Oracle Spatial service adds Oracle extensions, Oracle Instant Client, GDAL OCI, Oracle Spatial Studio, PostGIS, and oracle_fdw. This provides a useful bridge between open-source GIS services and enterprise Oracle Spatial databases.

For organizations requiring greater resilience, GeoServer clusters use multiple application instances, a dedicated HAProxy load balancer, automated failover, service monitoring, highly available application data, dedicated IP addressing, and full root access. Additional application nodes can be added as demand increases.

The GeoNode hosting range combines GeoNode, GeoServer, PostgreSQL, PostGIS, email, SSL, backups, and dedicated virtual-machine resources. GeoNode clustering is also available for larger institutional, government, research, or corporate deployments that require failover and horizontal scaling.

AcuGIS has an extensive range of QGIS-based publishing platforms. Lizmap hosting provides a dedicated virtual machine with PostgreSQL, PostGIS, SSL, SSH, and a management panel. High-availability Lizmap clusters add multiple application servers, automated failover, monitoring, load balancing, and scalable storage.

G3W-Suite hosting provides another dedicated QGIS web-publishing environment with PostgreSQL, PostGIS, backups, snapshots, and optional GeoServer integration on larger packages. QWC2 hosting supports multi-tenant QGIS Web Client 2 deployments with private networking, custom domains, PostgreSQL, and PostGIS.

QCarta converts QGIS projects into secure web maps while preserving layers, styling, forms, relationships, and editing capabilities. It also supports dashboards, GeoStories, document management, map caching, reports, database queries, user groups, permissions, and optional centralized authentication.

QuartzMap transforms qgis2web projects into secure dynamic mapping applications and supports PostGIS, GeoServer, WMS, WFS, WMTS, and R integrations. Quail publishes QGIS projects through QGIS Server and PostGIS, while Novella provides a dedicated QGIS-oriented mapping environment with private connectivity to QFieldCloud or Mergin Maps.

Mapbender hosting combines Mapbender with PostgreSQL, PostGIS, remote administration, SSL, and dedicated virtual-machine resources. Larger packages can also include GeoServer.

The GeoNetwork hosting service is intended for spatial data catalogs and metadata management. It combines GeoNetwork with Elasticsearch, Kibana, PostgreSQL, PostGIS, SSL, email, SSH, and FTP.

DSpace 8 hosting expands the portfolio into digital repositories and academic content management. Plans include DSpace, Tomcat, Java, PostgreSQL, NVMe storage, domain and DNS hosting, email configuration, database tools, snapshots, remote access, and cPanel web space.

Mobile mapping and field-data collection are also important parts of the service range. Dedicated QFieldCloud and Mergin Maps Community Edition servers support unlimited projects and users, scalable virtual-machine resources, private deployments, and complete configuration.

Traccar hosting provides a dedicated GPS tracking environment with unlimited users and tracked devices. PostgreSQL and PostGIS geometry support allow location data to be combined with wider spatial applications.

GeoSync connects QFieldCloud, Mergin Maps, or ArcGIS Survey123 projects to new or existing PostGIS databases. Synchronization is automated and can be integrated with GeoServer, GeoNode, QWC2, and JDBC-compatible applications.

The modular Field Survey platform combines a mobile collection service with GeoSync, PostGIS, and a selected map-publishing application. Customers can use an existing mobile platform or add a dedicated QFieldCloud or Mergin Maps server. GeoNode, QWC2, and Lizmap are available as publishing layers, while related AcuGIS virtual machines can communicate through private networking.

Jasper Report Publisher provides scheduled and on-demand business reporting. It supports Jasper reports, email delivery, group-level permissions, QWC2 maps, and common R applications. Pricing depends on the chosen configuration rather than a single fixed package.

On-premise installation is available on customer-owned infrastructure and cloud instances supplied by Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and DigitalOcean. AcuGIS installs and configures the selected application for a one-time fee, while annual support and software upgrades remain optional.

Supported on-premise applications include GeoServer, GeoNode, GeoNetwork, Lizmap, G3W-Suite, Mergin Maps Community Edition, QFieldCloud, and DSpace. This model is useful for organizations that need to retain direct control over their infrastructure, data location, or internal security policies.

The company also maintains an active open-source catalog. GeoSuite builds and administers a complete GIS stack, while Quail Layer Server exposes QGIS projects through OGC-compatible services. Tile Portal provides an interface for pg_tileserv layers, OpenTileServer simplifies OpenStreetMap tile-server deployment, and Nominatim Server supports OpenStreetMap geocoding installations.

Additional open-source modules cover PostgreSQL, PostGIS, GeoServer, Tomcat, Java, Nagios, Certbot, Oracle Instant Client, and related server-administration functions. Several repositories continued receiving updates during 2026.

Online training is available through self-paced courses that include a temporary live hosting instance and email assistance. Current subjects include GeoNode, Lizmap, and Jasper Report Publisher. Custom training can also be arranged for teams and organizations.

Academic customers using an eligible .edu email address can receive a 20% discount with the EDU20 promotional code. This discount can be combined with longer billing-cycle savings.

The website operates in English, and prices are primarily displayed in U.S. dollars. The Terms also permit billing in pounds sterling. The overall interface is modern and functional, although some product sections contain inconsistent storage allocations, location totals, or older plan information. The precise location, storage allocation, and included resources should therefore be confirmed during checkout for larger deployments.
