Questions

Fair things to wonder.

Do I need to know anything technical?

No. You describe what you want and your helper does the work. It explains what it did in plain words.

What if it gets something wrong?

It saves a restore point before every change, so anything can be undone. Your box is also backed up every night, and our team can step in.

Do I log into the computer myself?

There’s nothing to log into. You message your helper and open your apps in a browser. That’s how we keep every box safe.

Can my apps use my own web address?

Yes. Every app starts at an address ending in handybox.run. Ask to connect your own domain and your helper walks you through the one step you need to do.

What happens when my box fills up?

Your helper tells you before it’s a problem. You can remove an app you no longer use or move to a bigger box.

You already host apps for us. What changes?

Nothing about the service. You also get the helper, so when something feels slow or broken you can ask it to check right away.

Just ask.
