Managed Pi-hole, looked after for you
Pi-hole blocks ads and trackers for every device on a network by acting as a DNS server. It should never be open to the whole internet.
Pi-hole: what we look after
- Pi-hole installed and reachable only from your network or VPN
- Blocklists and allow lists tuned to avoid breaking sites
- Upstream DNS settings with privacy in mind
- Updates and backups of the configuration
When Pi-hole goes wrong
- An open resolver on the internet that attackers abuse
- Sites that break because a list blocks too much
- DNS that stops when the server is down
Who uses managed Pi-hole
Households and small offices that want to block ads and trackers.
What it needs
A small server of 512 MB of RAM and a VPN for remote use.
What we check first
Before we change anything on a new Pi-hole setup, we look at these, and we tell you what we found in plain words:
- Who can send DNS queries to it, and whether it is open to the whole internet
- Which blocklists are active and whether they break sites you use
- Whether the configuration is backed up
From order to a watched Pi-hole setup
Pi-hole is part of every managed plan. Besides what is listed above, each plan includes outside checks every minute, off-server backups, security hardening and a team that answers your tickets. The price counts servers, not apps.
Tell us what you run
Order a managed plan and list your servers and the apps on them, or write to us first with questions.
We look before we touch
We check what is installed, what is out of date and what is not backed up, and tell you in plain words.
Backups and watching first
Backups and outside checks are set up before any change, so we can always go back.
Then the steady work
Updates, security, tuning and fixes follow, and you can ask us anything by ticket.
Plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server. GST is added at checkout. See all managed plans.
Pi-hole support: your questions answered
Is a public Pi-hole safe?
No. A DNS server open to the internet is abused. We bind it to a VPN or private network.
Can I use it away from home?
Yes, over WireGuard. We set the VPN up to use it.
Is Pi-hole covered by the managed plans?
Yes. The managed plans count servers, not applications, so Pi-hole on your server is covered with no extra price per app. Plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server, and GST is added at checkout.
