In 2022, the EU and US reached an agreement on a new EU-US Data Privacy Framework to replace the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, which was struck down by an EU court some time ago. On July 17th, 2023, the US Department of Commerce announced the launch of the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program and website.
Everleap has attained the EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification along with the UK Extension and the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework Certification. We worked with our privacy management solutions partner, TRUSTe (part of TrustArc) to verify our practices against the Framework principles.
For more information about the Data Privacy Framework program, you can visit dataprivacyframework.gov. We have updated our Privacy Policy and it is posted online here.

In the Fall of 2022, the team at Showroom Software had finally had enough. After migrating to a public cloud platform, the IT and engineering professionals tasked with keeping the Showroom platform running for furniture stores and designers were at their breaking point. The problem? For all the performance and scalability of the public cloud infrastructure, their support and service were sorely lacking.
Showroom Software was established in 2001, providing e-commerce and digital marketing solutions to furniture stores and designers alike. With the help of their software, businesses could manage customer orders, create custom catalogs, build websites, handle payment processing, generate leads, and more.
On the public cloud system, the team had difficulty troubleshooting problems quickly or getting real-time advice on how to optimize their architecture for maximum performance. This not only caused delays in their operations but also resulted in lost revenue due to downtime and other hiccups that could have been avoided with better guidance from the public cloud provider.
Realizing they needed a better hosting solution to ensure their customers’ success and that of Showroom Software’s own platform, they reached out to Everleap. Immediately impressed by Everleap’s commitment to 24/7/365 customer service, Showroom Software saw an opportunity to alleviate some of the pain points associated with cloud hosting.
With Everleap’s help, Showroom Software was able to make an effortless migration into the cloud while taking advantage of Everleap’s cloud hosting expertise as well as its proactive advanced monitoring capabilities. Now they have access to quality customer support whenever they need it — helping them nip issues in the bud before any significant downtime occurs — as well as knowledgeable engineers who can advise on best practices for designing high-performance applications at scale.
All too often, small businesses choose technology without a clear understanding of what is available and what they need. When business consultant and full-stack developer Pelle Uvebrant began working with Chair Care Patio he learned that their small website was hosted with Azure, leading to huge costs and a complicated and cumbersome support experience. Even worse, the website faced several technical issues that the Azure team was slow to address for such a small business.
As a result, Pelle quickly recommended a new hosting provider that could provide both the technical and support experience that the business needed.
With a quick web search, he discovered Everleap. Everleap offered a fully-managed private cloud solution, excellent customer support, and affordable pricing, which solved the client’s problems.
Here is the story of Chair Care Patio told from Pelle Uvebrant’s point of view.
SQL 2022 is available as a new option for your Shared SQL database in our Shared Cloud Hosting Plans or for Private SQL database servers. You can create shared SQL 2022 databases or order Private SQL servers in your Everleap Control Panel.
Microsoft released .NET 7 in the last quarter of 2022. While it was always possible to deploy .NET 7 applications to our cloud hosting environment using Self-Contained Deployment (SCD), we now have .NET 7 (ASP.NET Core 7) installed on our cloud hosting servers. Therefore, customers can use Framework-Dependent Deployment (FDD) and Visual Studio 2022 to deploy their .NET 7 (ASP.NET Core 7) applications.

We often get questions regarding the differences between our Everleap Managed Hosting solutions and hosting at Microsoft Azure. So I thought I’d address this question here.
Let me say first that Microsoft Azure is a powerful public cloud platform. It is built for developers and can run virtually anything. Microsoft is continuously adding more functionality to address very niche technological use cases. Everything you can do on our Everleap platform, you can do on Azure. So, it is natural for anyone to ask then, compared to the Azure behemoth, why does Everleap even try to compete?
It’s a good question and the answer is that we are not really trying to compete with Azure on hosting technologies. We know that Azure will always have a deeper technology stack and a much bigger footprint than we will ever have. While our hosting functionality can overlap with Azure, Everleap fills a different need in the market. We focus on delivering services to small- and medium-sized businesses. We are not trying to be all things for all use cases. Plainly speaking, sometimes you may need the many tools of a Swiss army knife and other times you just need a good pair of scissors.
