Server Management / cPanel
Server tuning, licensing, updates and migrations. We take over the management of your DirectAdmin server — including your own customers’ accounts.
Contact us Free configuration scan
Version control per account, upgrades tested on a staging account before going live.
ModSecurity, modules, Firewall, CSF and tweak settings according to our own baseline.
To or from DirectAdmin, including mail and DNS. Usually without noticeable downtime.
SPF, DKIM, DMARC and blacklist monitoring, so your mail doesn’t disappear silently.
Off-server backups, per-account restores — even if your customer demolished it themselves.
Optionally, we also arrange the DirectAdmin license, settled on one invoice.
Migration
We copy your accounts, test them on the new server and only convert DNS when everything is correct. Switching is free with an annual contract.
Sounds pretty scary, you give a stranger access to your most precious parts. If you are in doubt, you can always call us on 020 89 500 45.
No more worrying about your server park, no more outliers in your ICT budget and a managed server environment for one fixed amount per month.
We ensure that your server is always up to date with the latest software and security updates for certain packages.
This regular maintenance is standard in your package. Activities outside of this, such as installing an application, we charge at a discount at our regular rate as a server management customer.
Some plans also offer web hosting support . With this module, we also help you with questions about your web hosting servers and the customers hosted on them. We know the software packages DirectAdmin, CPanel and Plesk through and through.
The world of email is changing at a rapid pace, big players such as Gmail and Office365 are now making the rules and having your own mail server (for example on your DirectAdmin, Plesk or CPanel server) is increasingly difficult to maintain.
With email server support, we also help you maintain your mail server and you can be sure that your emails always reach the recipient.
Your server(s), website, email or webshop is probably one of the most important assets of your company. When these fail, everything comes to a standstill.
With good server management, you prevent problems during peak loads and performance is continuously guaranteed. In addition, we ensure that the system is always optimally accessible.
If the server crashes, the whole company comes to a standstill! This can be prevented by good management on the server. Are all services running? Aren't the hard disks almost full? Have all updates been installed? Are the OS and programs up-to-date? And so on! You don't have to waste valuable time on this anymore, we keep a close eye on it all and react immediately if something threatens to go wrong.
No, we are one of the few carrier-neutral system operators. It doesn't matter where your server is located, as long as we have access to the server and the control panel in case of any problems.
We work closely with the following hosting parties: TransIP, WorldStream, OVH, Hostnet, Siteground, Digital Ocean and GoDaddy.
During office hours we can be reached via 020 89 500 45. Outside these hours, you will be connected to our night shift*.
*If you call outside your package, extra costs will be charged

We have been providing secure and reliable IT solutions to small and medium-sized businesses since 2008. We always do this for an affordable monthly fee and short contracts.
Many server issues aren’t addressed until they’re already visible.
Then the damage is often already done.
We work differently.
Our DirectAdmin server management is preventive and goal-oriented. We continuously monitor the health of your server and intervene as soon as anomalies occur — even before they become noticeable to visitors.
This way we prevent; Downtime, loss of performance, emergency interventions, unpredictable costs
Your server remains reliable, even under increasing load. And if things do go wrong, we are available 24/7.
Just like hardware maintenance, server management consists of continuously monitoring most parts of the operating system and hardware on a daily basis. We can also monitor the applications installed on your server(s) and take immediate action if necessary. This also applies to your backup and antivirus software on your server(s). You never have to check these yourself again, we do that for you every day. Every month you will receive an automatic extensive report from us about the status of your server(s) and our activities.
If the server crashes, the whole company comes to a standstill! This can be prevented by good management on the server. Are all services running? Aren’t the hard disks almost full? Have all updates been installed? Are the OS and programs up-to-date? And so on! You don’t have to waste valuable time on this anymore, we keep a close eye on it all and react immediately if something threatens to go wrong.
Many of our customers (with or without their own ICT department) choose to periodically hire one of our certified system administrators. Remote is a lot possible, but more and more of our customers are also opting for a system administrator who periodically comes to the location to support the optimal keeping of the components. For companies with their own ICT department, an additional system administrator is an important means to increase the knowledge and experience of their own ICT department. We always link a permanent system administrator to a customer so that you do not always have a different face on the floor during periodic system management.
Nothing is more annoying than the unavailability of your surroundings without you being aware of it. With Servermeister’s monitoring service, you will receive an instant notification, day and night, as soon as your server stops responding to a request. Depending on your choice, the notifications are sent by email or by SMS. Upon delivery of the monitoring service, Servermeister’s network administrators will contact you to fine-tune the server and services to be monitored.
We offer server management for control panels such as DirectAdmin, CPanel and Plesk. This is standard in our package and you don’t have to pay anything extra for it.
No, we are one of the few carrier-neutral system operators. It doesn’t matter where your server is located, as long as we have access to the server and the control panel in case of any problems.
We work closely with the following hosting parties: TransIP, Digital Ocean and GoDaddy.
