    Stablepoint Magento hosting — what they offer

    Stablepoint is a UK-based hosting provider offering managed dedicated servers for Magento, with plans starting from £89 per month. They offer fully managed and monitored hosting with twice-daily offsite backups included. A public cloud option on AWS or Google Cloud Platform is also available, though this is listed at additional cost on top of the base dedicated server price.

    Stablepoint's Magento hosting page is relatively light on stack detail — Varnish, Redis, and NGINX are not referenced. Their page states that "Magento requires Elasticsearch" for catalogue search, citing the Magento 2.4 requirement. Adobe's documentation has since updated this: from Magento 2.4.4 onwards, OpenSearch is required, not Elasticsearch. Merchants running or planning to upgrade to current Magento versions should verify which search engine Stablepoint provides.

    We cover the key stack differences below factually, with reference to Adobe's published Magento system requirements.

    Stablepoint
    Elasticsearch
    Stablepoint's Magento page states that Magento "requires Elasticsearch". Adobe's documentation updated this requirement: from Magento 2.4.4 onwards, OpenSearch is required.

    Component
    Full-Page Cache
    Adobe recommendation: Varnish (highly recommended)
    Stablepoint
    Not stated

    EveryHost
    Varnish 7.7Adobe recommended
    Configured with Magento's official VCL, tuned for ESI blocks, checkout exclusions, and session handling. Pages served in milliseconds — PHP never runs for cached requests.
    Component
    Session & Object Cache
    Adobe recommendation: Redis (two dedicated instances)
    Stablepoint
    Not stated
    Redis is not referenced on Stablepoint's Magento hosting page. Adobe recommends two dedicated Redis instances — one for sessions, one for the object cache.

    Component
    Storage
    Adobe: faster storage = faster database = faster pages

    EveryHost
    NVMe SSDStandard on all plans

    Component
    Cloud pricing model
    Fixed monthly vs variable cloud charges
    Stablepoint
    Base price + additional for cloud
    Stablepoint's Magento page notes that public cloud infrastructure on AWS or Google Cloud Platform is available "at an additional fee" on top of their base dedicated server price. Cloud resource costs can vary with usage.
    EveryHost
    Fixed dedicated pricingAll plans
    All EveryHost plans use dedicated hardware at a fixed monthly price. No variable cloud charges — your cost is the same whether it's a quiet Tuesday or Black Friday.
