PrestaShop Hosting & Infrastructure Audit

Does your backup actually restore?

Nobody finds this out on a calm day. The answer arrives during an incident, with the shop down and the last copy of unknown quality. The audit reverses that order: it judges whether what you back up could realistically bring a clean store back, which is a different question from whether backup files exist somewhere on a disk.

The same lens is applied to everything that only matters when things go wrong: what happens when this one server dies, which single points of failure would take the shop down with them, and what the honest recovery time would be. A store that survives its worst day is a configuration decision made in advance, and this section of the report is that decision written down.

Is this host still enough for this store?

The answer depends on the store, so the audit refuses generic spec sheets. Capacity is judged against your actual catalogue and your actual traffic: a small store on solid shared hosting is often perfectly fine, and the report says so; the same plan under a large catalogue and a paid-traffic peak is not, and the report says that too, with the evidence attached.

Any provider setup is assessed, from shared hosting through private and cloud servers to dedicated machines, multistore and multilingual included. The result is a judgment about the store you run, not the store a pricing table imagines.

What do you receive, and where does the audit end?

A written report, ranked before described: the first thing you read is what to do first. Every finding follows the same discipline, the symptom, the evidence it was drawn from, why it happens on PrestaShop, the fix, the effort, and how to confirm it worked, written so a developer acts without asking a follow-up question. Your version names your store, your addresses and your modules, not placeholders, and it closes with the backup and recovery judgement and the written verdict: migrate, or fix what you have, with the evidence for it attached. The report is typically 10 to 20 pages and arrives within 3 to 5 working days of receiving hosting access, a control panel or read access to the server, together with access to the store's back office. The price is 290 euro, fixed.

The audit is the assessment and the plan, not the execution. It does not move your store, reconfigure your server or sign you up with any provider; applying the changes or carrying out a migration is scoped separately and honestly, including the honest version where staying put with better configuration beats moving. Performance work inside the PrestaShop application itself is the separate Performance Audit, a live outage is a rescue job rather than a planned examination, and any hosting fees or plan upgrades the report recommends are settled between you and the provider.

The report is yours to hand to any developer or host, and a 14-day email window covers clarification questions about the findings.
