RedeHost

What RedeHost does

RedeHost (legal entity: RedeHost Internet Ltda.) is a Brazilian web hosting and cloud infrastructure provider founded in 2001, headquartered in Gravataí, Rio Grande do Sul. The company delivers a portfolio of subscription-based services including shared website hosting (PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, Java), WordPress-optimized hosting, virtual cloud servers (rebranded as 'Solider' for enterprise and IT-consultant customers), professional email (Umbler Mail, including a freemium tier and an Exchange-based corporate offering), and domain registration across multiple TLDs (.com, .com.br, .net, .org, others) priced at cost. Underlying infrastructure comprises two certified data centers in São Paulo (PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, ISO 20000, ISO 50001, ISAE 3402, SOC Type 3, TR3 TÜV Rheinland), a 100% cloud-computing platform on SSD storage with unified control panel for multi-domain, multi-service management, and add-on integrations with CloudFlare (CDN), Let's Encrypt (SSL), and New Relic (APM).

The company serves a mix of customer segments — primary personas are Brazilian entrepreneurs and small business owners (SMB), digital and web development agencies managing multiple client accounts, and large enterprises (named logos include Vale, TIM, Danone, Fundação Roberto Marinho, Acciona, Itaú). The go-to-market motion combines product-led growth (self-serve signup, 7-day free trials, freemium email tier) with a channel/partner program for resellers and agencies ('Indique e ganhe' referral program offering up to R$300 per referral, Mailee.me email marketing integration). Scale signals include 60,000+ customers, 129,000 hosted sites, 588,000 registered domains, and 187,000 email accounts. RedeHost was recognized as one of Brazil's Best Companies to Work For (Melhores Empresas para Trabalhar) in 2016 and 2018.

In 2017 RedeHost merged with Umbler under shared venture-builder ownership, with RedeHost's operations transitioning onto the Umbler platform while legacy billing and support are maintained via redehost.com.br. The combined entity has expanded into conversational customer engagement through 'Umbler Talk' — a WhatsApp Business-integrated platform with CRM, rule-based ChatBot, and an AI Agent for automated 24/7 lead and customer handling — representing the company's principal move beyond core hosting. Total reported headcount is ~80 employees, and the company is privately held with no funding rounds disclosed; the legal entity is now operating as Umbler Internet Ltda. (CNPJ 30.655.874/0001-48) with RedeHost retained as a legacy/support brand.
