If you are looking to host UniFi Network, either by self-hosting or with a provider like HostiFi - there are two platforms currently available. Although in March 2026, UniFi OS Server is now the recommended platform to use instead of UniFi Network.

With HostiFi fully managed UniFi cloud hosting, this allows IT teams to focus on managing networks rather than infrastructure.

We test the latest UniFi updates for issues, have dedicated support on hand and take regular backups. Plans start at just $9 per month and are built to scale with you.

UniFi OS Server vs Self-Hosted UniFi Network

One of the main differences between Self-Hosted UniFi Network UniFi OS Server are the features that are supported. Because UniFi OS Server is the same OS that runs on UniFi Dream Machines and other UniFi OS Consoles, you immediately get access to Site Magic, Teleport VPN, UniFi Identity and full featured integration with UniFi Site Manager.

Should I still use self-hosted UniFi Network?

If you are still using the UniFi Network application, it is recommended to upgrade to UniFi OS Server. When Ubiquiti publishes new releases, it recommends users to upgrade to UniFi OS Server instead. That being said, it is still supporting UniFi Network but it isn't clear for how long it will continue to do so.

If you need to migrate from your own self-hosted instance of UniFi Network to UniFi OS Server, HostiFi offers free migration assistance with all plans. Not sure yet? - Book a free demo with our team.

Can I run UniFi OS Server with HostiFi?

Yes you can. Any new customers that sign up from today to our UniFi hosting plans will immediately have access to UniFi OS Server. Plans start at just $9 per month and this includes free migration assistance. For existing customers we are upgrading servers in the coming weeks.
