📄 Editorial Review

Active since 2002 and founded in Denmark by Jacob Jensen, one.com has grown into a major European provider under Cinven ( cinven.com ) ownership, with recent acquisitions Digital Garden ( digitalgarden.no -> uniweb.no ) and SYSE, extending its regional footprint. They present a broad, beginner-friendly portfolio that spans domains, shared hosting, WordPress, website builder/e-commerce, professional email, Microsoft 365, and VPS—including a managed option—while emphasizing European data locality, privacy, and a simple, multilingual experience.

Domains

They position domains as the on-ramp to the rest of the stack: large TLD coverage, suggestion tools (synonyms, variants, alternates) to help find available names, and optional WHOIS privacy. Domain and DNS controls live in the same account, making it straightforward to pair a name with hosting, email, WordPress, or the site builder.

Web Hosting (Shared)

Shared hosting targets first sites and small businesses with fast setup, an included SSL certificate, daily backups, and malware scanning. Plans are designed to be "all-in-one" with email hosting, aliases, subdomains, mod_rewrite, and database access. As sites grow, customers can move to higher tiers for more resources, multiple sites, and performance extras, without leaving the same control panel and support channels.

WordPress & Managed WP Add-on

They streamline WordPress with one-click install, current PHP/WordPress versions, and an optional Managed WP layer that adds automatic core/theme/plugin updates (compatibility-tested), daily backups, vulnerability scans with auto-patch, a CDN/performance cache option, and priority support. The pitch is to offload maintenance while keeping the familiar WordPress experience and plugin ecosystem.

Website Builder & Online Shop

The Aida Website Builder focuses on speed and simplicity: responsive templates (100+ range), drag-and-drop editing, and an AI site-creation flow to generate a starting point. It’s suitable for brochure sites and basic commerce use cases; customers who later outgrow it can pivot to WordPress or VPS while staying inside the one.com environment.

Professional Email

Business email is bundled or available standalone: ad-free webmail, integrated calendar, strong spam filtering, and tools to import from services like Gmail/Yahoo/Hotmail. The positioning is reliability and deliverability for a custom domain, with security features and 2FA sitting at the account level.

Microsoft 365

They resell and integrate Microsoft 365 (e.g., Business Standard), adding one.com’s security/backup touches for Exchange and wrapping it with the same support/portal experience. This gives small teams a cohesive path from domain and site to productivity apps and mail.

VPS (Self-Managed)

VPS targets users needing dedicated resources and full OS control. They highlight modern CPUs, NVMe SSD storage, and full virtualization, with Linux choices (AlmaLinux, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu) or Windows. The value prop is quick provisioning, flexibility to install almost any software stack, and an uptime target communicated on product pages.

Managed VPS

For customers who want the power of a VPS without the upkeep, Managed VPS adds proactive monitoring, maintenance, and security hardening. They emphasize European hosting (Copenhagen), a 99.99% uptime aim for the managed tier, migration assistance, and access to support engineers who handle updates and troubleshooting so customers can focus on apps and content.

Control Panel & Localization

A proprietary control panel (with 2FA) unifies domains, DNS, databases, backups, email, and billing. It’s designed to be approachable for newcomers yet exposes advanced tools like File Manager, DNS settings, and DB Admin. The interface and help resources are localized across multiple European languages, which lowers the learning curve for non-English users.

Network, DNS & Data Locality

They operate an Anycast DNS footprint spread across several Northern/Central European locations, improving DNS responsiveness and resilience. For EU customers, data is hosted in Denmark, aligning with a Europe-centric privacy and compliance narrative, while partner colocation is used where appropriate to complement their footprint.
Website languages/localization supported in the Control Panel and site: Dansk, Deutsch, English, Español, Français, Italiano, Nederlands, Norsk, Português, Suomi, Svenska.
