📜 Plan description

📄 Editorial Review

Shellrent is an Italian hosting and cloud provider founded in 2006 by Sandro Sciessere and Nicola Vianelli. The company operates from Vicenza and serves individuals, developers, web agencies, online stores, IT consultants, and established businesses. Nicola Vianelli remains CEO, while both founders continue to be involved in the company’s management.

In February 2026, Shellrent became part of Your.Online (your.online), within its Presence business segment. The company retained its own brand, management, infrastructure platform, product portfolio, and Italian technical-support organization. Shellrent had also previously incorporated the customers and services of TTServers (ttservers.it).

Shellrent has grown beyond conventional shared hosting and now provides domain registration, Linux hosting, Windows hosting, WordPress hosting, Joomla hosting, PrestaShop hosting, Magento infrastructure, cloud VPS, private cloud, dedicated servers, email services, certified PEC mailboxes, SMTP servers, Microsoft 365, SSL certificates, cloud storage, object storage, backup, disaster recovery, monitoring, reseller services, web development, technical consulting, and SMS services.

More than 1,400 domain extensions are available. Shellrent is directly accredited by the Italian NIC for .it registrations and has held EURid accreditation for .eu domains since 2018. Domain-management functions include DNS control, custom nameservers, DNSSEC, DNS templates, URL forwarding, eligible Whois Privacy services, domain backordering, and brand-protection options. Selected hosting packages include a domain registration for the first year.

Linux shared hosting is divided into Basic, Standard, Business, and Enterprise plans. Resources and features vary between the packages, but the range includes web space, monthly traffic, email accounts, MySQL databases, subdomains, SSL certificates, HTTP/2, selectable PHP versions, WordPress management tools, antivirus protection, automated backups, and access to the proprietary Manager interface.

The Basic plan is suitable for a small personal website or simple business presence, although it has tighter limits for databases, mailboxes, PHP selection, and backup frequency. Standard and Business increase the available resources, while Enterprise adds larger mailboxes, more backup restore points, stronger security functions, and a commercial SSL certificate.

PHP support covers legacy compatibility versions and current PHP 8.x branches on eligible packages. Security measures include Imunify360, ModSecurity filtering, malware scanning, intrusion monitoring, and optional integration with the Cloudflare content-delivery and security network.

WordPress hosting uses a similar tier structure but adds WordPress Toolbox functions for installation, staging, cloning, updates, security checks, and centralized site administration. Free migration assistance is available for customers transferring an existing WordPress installation from another provider.

Windows hosting remains an important part of the product range. It supports ASP.NET, Microsoft SQL Server, Classic ASP, Microsoft Access, IIS, MySQL, email hosting, and Plesk administration. This is particularly useful for companies maintaining older Microsoft-based applications or projects that cannot be moved easily to a Linux environment.

Joomla and PrestaShop receive application-oriented hosting configurations. PrestaShop packages include more generous backup retention, multiple databases, larger email accounts, SSL protection, and malware controls. Magento hosting is placed on virtual-server infrastructure rather than ordinary shared hosting, allowing processor, RAM, disk, backup, and availability resources to be matched to the size of the online store.

Cloud VPS services are separated into three infrastructure classes. Standard VPS uses conventional storage and connectivity of up to 200 Mbps. Performance VPS uses NVMe storage and connectivity of up to 1 Gbps. High Availability VPS adds real-time data replication across separate infrastructure clusters.

Available operating-system and application templates include Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, CentOS-compatible distributions, Windows Server, Docker, Magento, SMTP environments, Plesk, and cPanel. Customers can purchase additional IPv4 addresses, backup storage, control-panel licenses, operating-system licenses, and server-management assistance.

Private Cloud is based on Proxmox and supplies dedicated processor, memory, storage, networking, IP, snapshot, and backup resources. Customers can create and administer multiple virtual machines through an isolated environment. This service is particularly appropriate for agencies, software companies, hosting resellers, and businesses that require more separation and flexibility than a single VPS can provide.

Dedicated servers cover general-purpose Intel and AMD configurations, high-capacity storage servers, NVMe systems, AMD EPYC platforms, and GPU-equipped servers for artificial intelligence, rendering, and compute-intensive workloads. Customers receive exclusive access to the hardware, dedicated connectivity, IP-address options, remote-management functions on eligible systems, and a selection of operating systems and control panels.

Storage and data-protection services form another substantial part of the portfolio. Cloud Storage supports FTP, NFS, SMB, quotas, multiple users, and Nextcloud access. Data is replicated in real time to geographically separated infrastructure.

Object Storage offers S3-compatible access, unlimited buckets, multi-region replication, and simple capacity-based billing. Disaster Recovery can preserve copies of hosting, VPS, private-cloud, or dedicated-server data in an external storage environment located in a different datacenter.

Backup as a Service uses Veeam technology and supports workstations, physical servers, VMware, and Hyper-V systems. Active Monitoring checks server conditions and services, while Web Monitoring follows website availability, HTTPS operation, performance, and PageSpeed results. Alerts can be sent through email or SMS.

Email products include domain-based mail packages, larger shared-mail plans, certified PEC mailboxes, dedicated SMTP relay servers, Exchange Online, and Microsoft 365 subscriptions. Microsoft 365 Business, Enterprise, Exchange, OneDrive, Teams, and Copilot licenses can be purchased and managed through the same provider.

The reseller program is designed for web agencies, developers, and IT consultants. It includes volume discounts, delegated users, service statistics, customizable pricing, commercial assistance, and a white-label edition of Manager. Optional technical support can also be supplied directly to the reseller’s customers.

Shellrent’s website and customer platform have a modern responsive design that works correctly on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones. The commercial interface, documentation, checkout system, legal agreements, and customer support are primarily in Italian. No complete English version exists, which makes the service less accessible to customers who do not understand Italian. Products are priced in EUR, normally before Italian VAT.
