Install applications with one click

Automatic updates

Configure applications to update automatically to the latest version. This keeps your website up to date at all times and reduces the risk of security issues caused by outdated software.

Backups per installation

Easily create a backup of a specific application installation — separate from the daily server backups. Useful before applying an update or making changes to your website or webshop.

Clone and move

Copy an existing installation to another domain or subdomain. Ideal for creating a test environment or moving a website to a new address.

Easy recovery

Restore an application to an earlier restore point in just a few clicks. Whether it is a failed update or an unintended change — you are back online quickly without any data loss.

Manage multiple installations

Manage all your application installations clearly in one place. View status, apply updates or remove installations — all via a clear overview in your control panel.

After installation you manage everything from the same control panel. Applying updates, restoring a backup or cloning an installation to a staging environment — these are steps that anyone can carry out without technical knowledge.

Installatron is included as standard with our Web Hosting, WordPress Hosting and Reseller Hosting packages. For resellers it is especially valuable: manage multiple client installations clearly from one environment and keep everything up to date without manual intervention.

Installing and managing applications via Installatron in the control panel

From installation to daily management — everything in one place

With Installatron you install a web application in just a few steps. Choose your application, set the domain and preferred settings — Installatron takes care of the database, file structure and initial configuration automatically.

After installation you manage everything from the same overview. Run updates with one click, enable automatic updates or turn on notifications so you always know when a new version is available. All your installations at a glance.

Installatron is available via DirectAdmin with Web Hosting and Reseller Hosting, and via Plesk with WordPress Hosting. Open it straight from your control panel — everything exactly where you expect it.
Creating and managing a staging environment via Installatron

Test safely — without risk to your live environment

Want to roll out a major update or launch new functionality, but need to make sure everything works before it goes live? With Installatron you clone your website to a staging environment — an exact copy at a separate address.

Test all your changes without visitors noticing a thing. Happy with the result? Push the staging environment back to your live site in a few clicks. Something gone wrong? Restore easily from a backup.

This approach is ideal for developers, designers and resellers who regularly make changes for clients — test safely, deploy in a controlled way and always have a reliable fallback available.
WordPress Toolkit management environment in Plesk

More control over WordPress — with WordPress Toolkit

Our WordPress Hosting packages include WordPress Toolkit alongside Installatron. Where Installatron focuses on installation and management, the Toolkit gives you deeper control over security, updates and staging.

Manage all your WordPress installations from one overview, run bulk updates for themes and plugins, set up automated security scans and use the built-in staging functionality. All accessible via Plesk, without separate tools.

WordPress Toolkit is included as standard with all our WordPress Hosting packages and fully integrated into your control panel. Available immediately once your package is active — no separate installation or configuration required.
