Already run Odoo? Manage it from one dashboard

Link the Odoo servers you already have, whether installed by hand, with Docker or with an install script, and Cloud Buddy monitors them, backs them up, audits their security and gives you logs, restarts and a recorded terminal in the browser. Nothing is migrated or reinstalled.

  • Nothing migrated
  • One command to link
  • Per server, cancel any time

Everything you'd build yourself, already running

One subscription per server, with every tool included.

  • Monitoring and alerts

    Load, memory, disks, each instance and each domain every 5 minutes, with alerts for downtime, full disks and expiring certificates.

  • Backups with restore tests

    Daily backups of each database in Odoo's zip format, copied offsite encrypted and restored as a test every week.

  • Security audit

    A daily read-only audit graded from A to F: open database manager, exposed ports, SSH, pending updates and HTTPS.

  • Logs, restart, stop

    Live logs of every instance, and restart, stop or start Odoo with the command its service manager uses.

  • Recorded web terminal

    A root shell in the browser for the server's owner only, after a fresh sign-in, with every session recorded.

  • New Odoo in a few clicks

    Install another Odoo 17 to 20 next to the ones you have, on free ports, with its own domain and HTTPS.

Linked in three steps

No agent to configure and no package installed.

  1. Choose Server Pro

    Name the server, give its address and SSH port, and pick monthly or yearly billing.

  2. Run one command

    Run the command shown as root on the server. It is valid for 24 hours and only lets the server fetch its own keys.

  3. See your Odoo

    The platform pins the server's SSH host key and lists every Odoo it finds, with its databases, domains and certificates.

Exactly what access we get

Read the agent before you install it, and revoke it with one command whenever you want.

  • A small agent, /usr/local/sbin/kv-link, written with Python's standard library only
  • One restricted key line in root's authorized_keys that can only run that agent
  • Only the agent's own commands: server info, discovery, status, logs, restart, backups, the audit, and the fixes and installs you start
  • Passwords in Odoo configurations are never read out
  • The web terminal's key is optional, and removable with one command
  • Unlink any time: the platform's keys are deleted at once

What it costs

Each server has its own Server Pro subscription, monthly or yearly, and each Odoo install is a single payment.

Server Pro

$5/month per server, billed monthly; $2/month per server, billed yearly ($24 a year).

  • Monitoring: CPU, memory, disks, uptime, instances, domains and SSL expiry
  • Downtime, disk and certificate alerts
  • Security audit with a grade, and guided fixes
  • Web terminal (recorded)
  • Restart, stop and start Odoo
  • Daily backups, offsite copies, restore tests
  • Full live logs

How it works

Install Odoo on your server

$150 per instance, once. Odoo 17 to 20, Community or Enterprise, with your domain and HTTPS, sized for your server and followed live. $120 with yearly Server Pro (20% off). Refunded in full if it fails.

  • Native or Docker, picked for you
  • Swap, disk clean-up, free ports
  • Domain and HTTPS when DNS is ready

How it works

Questions about managing your own server

Can I keep Odoo on my own server and still have it managed?

Yes. Link your server with one command and Server Pro adds monitoring and alerts, daily backups with offsite copies and weekly restore tests, a security audit with guided fixes, live logs, restart and stop, and a recorded web terminal. Your Odoo keeps running on your machine: nothing is migrated.

Which servers can I link?

Any Linux server you can reach over SSH as root and that has Python 3: a VPS at AWS, Hetzner, DigitalOcean or Linode, or a machine of your own whose SSH port the platform can reach. Installing a new Odoo needs Ubuntu or Debian on a 64-bit Intel, AMD or ARM processor.

How much does it cost to manage my own server?

Server Pro is $5 per server per month, or $2 per month billed yearly ($24 a year), and each server has its own subscription you can cancel on its own. Installing a new Odoo on a server is a one-time $150 per instance, 20% less on a server with yearly Server Pro, refunded in full if the install fails.

Does linking change anything on my server?

The link command adds the agent and one restricted key line, plus the terminal's key if you keep the web terminal on, and installs no package. Nothing else changes until you ask for a restart, a fix or an install.

Odoo.sh or self-hosting: which should I choose?

Odoo.sh is simplest if you use Odoo Enterprise and are happy on Odoo S.A.'s infrastructure; a plain self-hosted server costs less but leaves installation, backups, security updates and monitoring to you. Cloud Buddy sits in between: your Odoo on our cloud or on your own server, with the installing, daily tested backups, monitoring and security audit done for you.
