Managed Hosting

Enterprise Hosting, Fully Managed.
Your Region. Your Tenant. Nothing to Maintain.

FormsPro runs in a single-tenant Microsoft Azure environment that OmniByte provisions, maintains, and keeps current, in the hosting region you choose. Your team builds forms and runs the business. The infrastructure is handled.

Who handles what

Your team runs the forms. OmniByte runs the platform.

Managed hosting draws a clear line between the work that is yours and the work that should never land on your IT team’s desk.

You decide what to build, who uses it, and which region your data lives in. OmniByte stands up your environment on Microsoft Azure, keeps the platform and its server software on current, supported versions, and ships updates through a regular release schedule. Nobody on your side patches a server, renews a hosting contract, or schedules a maintenance weekend.

Your team

The work that is yours
  • Build and change forms
  • Add users and set their roles
  • Choose your hosting region
  • Decide which systems FormsPro connects to

OmniByte

The work that never reaches your IT desk
  • Provisioning your single-tenant environment
  • Hosting on Microsoft Azure, in the region you selected
  • Server software kept on current, supported versions
  • Platform updates through scheduled releases
  • Clear answers for your security review
No servers on your side. Nothing to install, patch, or replace.

The gap

Self-hosting turns a forms tool into an infrastructure project.

Somebody has to own the servers. On a self-hosted platform, that somebody is your IT team, indefinitely.

That means patch cycles, version upgrades, capacity planning, and an on-call rotation for a system that was supposed to save time. Shared cloud platforms take the servers off your hands but put your records in an environment you share with every other customer, often in a region nobody on your side chose. Neither answer satisfies the security review that arrives right before purchase.

What you get

What does FormsPro managed hosting include?

Hosted on Microsoft Azure

FormsPro runs on Microsoft Azure infrastructure, so your security team evaluates a cloud platform it already knows instead of an unfamiliar data center.

A single-tenant environment

Your environment is yours alone. Your forms, records, and users are not pooled with other customers’ data in a shared database.

The region you choose

Select the Azure hosting region that matches your data residency and sovereignty requirements, so records stay in the geography they have to stay in.

Kept current for you

OmniByte keeps the platform and its server software on current, supported versions. Updates arrive through scheduled releases, not projects your team has to plan.

No infrastructure to run

There are no servers to install, patch, or replace on your side. Your IT team supports people, not hardware.

Ready for your security review

Hosting questions come up at the end of nearly every enterprise evaluation. Managed hosting gives your security team direct answers on where FormsPro lives, who shares it, and who maintains it.

Use case in focus

Region selectedWhere records must stay
Environment provisionedSingle tenant on Azure
Release installedNo IT project scheduled
The field team sees forms. Nobody sees a server.

A manufacturer is rolling out digital inspections across plants in two countries. Its IT team is small, already stretched, and not taking on new servers.

Plants in two countries. No new servers.

The last forms platform the company evaluated needed a server at each plant and a maintenance plan nobody had time to write. The one before that ran on shared cloud infrastructure, in a region the legal team would not approve.

IT picks the hosting region.

It matches where the plants’ records are required to stay.

OmniByte provisions the environment.

A single-tenant FormsPro environment on Microsoft Azure, ready for forms.

The security review closes.

Tenancy, region, and maintenance questions all have direct answers.

Crews start submitting inspections.

From tablets and phones at both plants, into the same environment.

Updates arrive on the release schedule.

Platform and server versions stay current without an IT project.

Enterprise hosting, without an infrastructure team to run it.

Common questions

FormsPro managed hosting FAQ

What is FormsPro managed hosting?

Managed hosting means OmniByte runs FormsPro for you on Microsoft Azure. Your organization gets its own single-tenant environment in the hosting region you choose, and OmniByte maintains the platform, its server software, and its updates. Your team builds forms and manages users without running any infrastructure.

Is FormsPro hosted on Microsoft Azure?

Yes. FormsPro is hosted on Microsoft Azure infrastructure, in a single-tenant environment dedicated to your organization.

Can you choose where FormsPro data is hosted?

Yes. You select the Azure hosting region for your environment, so your forms and records stay in the geography your data residency and sovereignty requirements call for.

Is a FormsPro environment shared with other customers?

No. Every customer runs in a single-tenant environment. Your data is not stored in a shared database alongside other organizations’ records.

Who handles updates and maintenance?

OmniByte does. The platform and its server software are kept on current, supported versions, and updates are delivered through a regular release schedule, so your IT team is not planning upgrade projects.

How is managed hosting different from self-hosting?

With self-hosting, your team owns the servers, patching, upgrades, and capacity. With FormsPro managed hosting, OmniByte owns all of that, and your team focuses on forms, users, and the processes they support.

Take the servers off your team’s list.
