France Serv Pro, € 12.00/mo. on Linux Shared

Offre Pro targets small and medium sized companies, associations and power users who need considerably more storage and databases than the Standard plan. FTP disk space can be adjusted between 50 and 500 GB, mail storage between 20 and 200 GB and SQL space between 5 and 50 GB, which is enough to host several substantial sites, internal tools and large mailboxes on the same account. The plan includes 30 to 60 MySQL or MariaDB databases and between 3 and 60 additional SQL accounts, making it easy to isolate each project or delegate database access. Remote MySQL access is available through an authorised IP list, so external reporting tools, desktop applications or other servers can connect securely to the database layer. On this tier the mail service scales up to 200 mailboxes or redirects with the highest monthly volume of around 90,000 messages and generous per hour and per day limits, plus optional Mailman3 mailing lists for newsletters or discussion lists. Pro also introduces sFTP and Rsync alongside multi site FTP and WebFTP, which is useful for developers who want encrypted file transfer or scripted deployments. Web traffic remains unmetered and all domains and subdomains share the same rich feature set, from AWStats reports and detailed logs to free SSL certificates and complete DNS management. PHP resources are increased with a 512 MB memory limit per script and a maximum execution time of twelve minutes, complemented by up to twenty cron style tasks, so the plan is well suited for heavier CMS, imports, background jobs and multi site environments that still prefer a managed shared hosting model.

All shared hosting plans at FranceServ run on Linux Debian servers located in several French datacenters operated by Scaleway, with a small pool of professional machines configured in high availability and load balancing. Storage combines SSD and HDD disks in RAID 1 and RAID 5 and the entire platform is monitored every minute by external probes, with response time and uptime statistics published on a public status page. Customers can choose from many PHP versions from 5.6 up to the latest 8.x branches in a chrooted environment, enable or disable system level PHP functions and rely on tools like ImageMagick, FFmpeg, PHP accelerators and the ionCube loader for heavier applications. Every account includes unlimited hosted domains and subdomains, a full DNS manager with alerts when name servers fail, detailed AWStats traffic reports, Apache with IPv4 and IPv6 and support for rewrite rules, plus free TLS certificates through Lets Encrypt or custom certificates. Mail services are tightly integrated with hosting and provide SMTP, IMAP and POP access, a Roundcube webmail interface, antispam based on rspamd and antivirus filtering via ClamAV, with optional Mailman3 mailing lists on the larger plans. Daily backups of FTP data, mailboxes and SQL databases are executed on a separate backup server and can be downloaded from the customer area, with retention spanning from several days to about a month. The in house management panel exposes multi site FTP, WebFTP with antivirus scans, cron style scheduled tasks, log downloads for web, mail and FTP, as well as one click installers and extensive French documentation. Contracts have no minimum duration, renewals are never forced by automatic rebilling and invoices can be paid monthly, quarterly or yearly. Technical assistance is handled directly by the FranceServ team via email, telephone, the public forum and an IRC channel, which matches their positioning as a proximity focused French host rather than a mass market brand.
