Offen is designed to be fair and lightweight in all aspects. It is the right choice if you want to easily find out how your website is used while respecting the privacy of your users.
The following non-exhaustive list contains hosting providers that we have tested ourselves. We are not affiliated with any of them, do not earn money if you install Offen there. If you happen to know other good choices, please let us know via a tweet.
Here are some options available in June 2020 for hosting Offen on a budget.
AWS
- USD 3.90 per month (plus USD 5.00 if you need a database) or maybe even free for 12 months if you just signed up
- Offen needs to be installed manually from the command line

- You can deploy Offen from within your browser using our Heroku preset.
DigitalOcean
- USD 5.00 per month (plus another USD 5.00 if you need a dedicated database)
