Hosting Options

VSys offers multiple hosting and licensing options to match your requirements and budget. Please contact our sales team for help determining the ideal setup.

Cloud-based

VSys can host your volunteer management solution for you in our secure facilities - US or Canada. Access VSys from anywhere in the world using your PC, Mac, tablet or smartphone. Both SaaS and permanent licensing options available.

In-house (on-premise)

If you prefer, you can host VSys within your own facilities and integrating it into your existing infrastructure, giving yourself 100% control.

Cloud Hosting

In our fully hosted environment, you can run VSys One, VSys Anywhere, VSys Live, and our other VSys products without straining your IT department, buying hardware, dealing with installations or doing upgrades. The VSys One support team will handle everything:
  • Installation, upgrades and diagnostics.
  • Support.
  • Backups.
  • Data encryption - in-transit and at rest.
  • 24x7x365 monitoring for uptime and security.
  • Optional two-factor authentication via SMS or Push.
  • Regular third-party penetration and security testing.
  • Optional site-to-site VPN.
  • We guarantee 99.5% uptime (historical availability: 99.9%+); higher availability requirements are available with a custom SLA.

All of your VSys tools will be available to you from anywhere, whether it's your office desktop, your iPad on the train or your PC at home. Your data is isolated from anyone else's, and you get your own dedicated hosting in which you have your own Server 2019 environment and SQL Server 2019 database(s).

Secure

Every client's virtual environment is exclusive: no other customers or their data will be on the virtual machine(s) allocated to you.
  • All traffic to our LAN is passed through our clustered Sonic Wall NSA security appliances before reaching our servers.
  • VSys One staff administrative users are required to use two-factor authentication for all access.
  • Backups (off site) are run daily; incremental backups (local) 3x/day. We can arrange for daily or weekly backups (your choice) to be delivered via SFTP to wherever you designate.
  • Your data is always yours - 100% owned by you. And your data is never mixed with anyone else's (segregated databases), never shared, and always safe.
