*📜 Plan description

Webhosting XL is aimed at larger sites that need more headroom in both storage and execution limits while still staying in a conventional shared hosting model. The package is priced at 15.99 EUR per month without setup fee and includes 300 GB total storage, practically 150 GB for the web area and 150 GB for email, unlimited traffic, one included domain from .de, .com, .net or .org, unlimited email addresses, free SSL certificates, website builder access and one-click deployment for WordPress, Nextcloud and many other applications.
The plan substantially widens everyday operating space: 100 mailboxes, 30 mailing lists, 1,000 subdomains, 15 SSD databases with up to 1 GB each, 30 FTP accounts, 30 SSH accounts and 15 cron jobs with up to 240 seconds runtime. PHP limits rise to 1024 MB memory_limit, 1000 MB post_max_size and 1000 MB upload_max_filesize, which makes the tier a more comfortable fit for resource-hungry content systems, larger mail usage and busier websites. The package still keeps the same core strengths of the platform such as unrestricted traffic, DNS editing, encrypted mail protocols, one-click app management and locally operated infrastructure in Germany. The comparison page shows a 1-month minimum term, 2-week cancellation notice and 6-month advance billing.

The wider webhosting platform is built on high-performance Linux servers with RAID-backed storage in manitu's own data center in Germany and uses an in-house customer menu instead of a third-party panel. That menu covers website setup, domain and DNS management, one-click installations, database creation, cron jobs, billing access and general package administration. The shared hosting environment includes editable DNS zones, FTP via FTP, FTPS and SFTP, SSH access with Bash or Zsh, Webalizer statistics, log access, custom error pages and password-protected directories.
The mail stack is unusually complete for standard shared hosting: encrypted POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP including submission on port 587, Roundcube webmail, Rspamd and ClamAV spam and virus filtering, Sieve mail filters, mailing lists and flexible forwarding. PHP versions 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 are available, databases can be MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL Beta, and one-click installers cover WordPress, Nextcloud, TYPO3, Shopware, Drupal, Joomla and many other applications. Daily backups of websites, email, databases and settings are kept for at least 14 days, the platform is monitored 24x7, server availability is stated at more than 99.9 percent annual average, and the hosting is operated with 100 percent green electricity in a fully climate-neutral setup with EU-DSGVO-oriented data protection.

📄 Editorial Review

manitu is one of the more distinctive German hosting providers because they combine a long operating history with a very self-reliant infrastructure model. The company was founded on August 21, 1997, and today operates as manitu GmbH from St. Wendel, Germany. Their public image is strongly centered on technical independence, privacy, and hosting made in Germany. The entire business is built for the German market, the site is essentially German-only, and pricing is presented in EUR, usually with German VAT included.

Their portfolio is focused and does not try to imitate the "everything cloud" style of larger global brands. The core lineup includes shared web hosting, WordPress hosting, Nextcloud hosting, ownCloud hosting, ClassicPress hosting, domain registration, SSL certificates, website builder tools, and dedicated root servers. A broad 1-click application library is part of the shared-hosting platform, so customers can deploy WordPress, Joomla, TYPO3, Shopware, Nextcloud, and other web applications without much manual work. That makes the platform suitable for small business sites, personal projects, agencies, and customers who want a German host with a stable classic hosting structure.

One important point is what they do not sell. manitu does not offer VPS / vServer plans, and they also do not offer managed servers in the usual sense. Their server business is built around real dedicated root servers rather than managed cloud instances or semi-managed virtual environments. That makes them more attractive to customers who either want straightforward shared hosting or full control over physical server hardware, but less attractive to buyers looking for a middle-ground VPS product.

The shared hosting range itself is mature rather than flashy. Plans scale from smaller entry packages to larger business-capable tiers with generous storage, included domains, email hosting, free SSL, daily backups, Linux-based hosting, and a strong application focus. WordPress and Nextcloud get dedicated positioning instead of being treated as mere add-ons. There is also an ecological angle throughout the brand, with hosting tied to renewable electricity and a long-running sustainability message that feels more deeply integrated than the usual marketing claim.
