<![CDATA[Does Cloudron work on Managed Servers without root access?]]>As an example:

https://www.hetzner.com/managed-server

I'm just thinking that for business-use using managed servers would be smarter so our team is focused on app and business development and not reinventing sys admin wheels.

Usually SSH keys are deployed on setup so I guess a cloudron user would need adding on initialisation before running the setup scripts?

(apologies, not dug into all docs on this subject, and I guess forums are for supplementing FAQs too)

Happy? Yes.

Confident? Sure - until something goes wrong 🙂

Just always thinking about prevention being better than cure.

From what I see on the link you sent, the idea is

Focus on your projects. We'll take care of the configuration and updates

But... Cloudron already does this.

This forum is a sys admin treasure trove of useful experience, so it's the least I can do!

Will they install Cloudron for you and hand out the server to you?
