It features a one-click WordPress installer, free SSL via Let’s Encrypt, and automatic domain/database setup via the control panel.
The platform includes a built-in snapshot and restore system (Snapup), which stores up to 8 automatic server-level backups. Snapshots can be downloaded or restored manually.
