Questions
Hosting FAQ
Do I need managed hosting to use SkillGrove LMS?
No. SkillGrove LMS runs on any good WordPress host. Managed hosting is for people who’d rather not look after a server and updates.
Is the Pro license really included?
Yes. Each hosted site comes with SkillGrove LMS Pro and Pro support, for as long as it is hosted with us.
Do I keep admin access to my site?
Yes, you have a full WordPress administrator account. Server access stays with us, which is part of how we keep sites safe.
Can I leave later?
Yes. At the end of your commitment, we give you a full copy of your site and data, ready to move to any host.
Who runs the hosting?
DUGAS IT EURL, the company behind SkillGrove LMS, which also hosts and maintains WordPress sites for its clients.
