Comparison
DeployBase vs StaticHost
Both EU-hosted. Both use Bunny.net. Different pricing models, different feature trade-offs.
Summary
StaticHost is a solid European hosting provider with broad git integrations, monorepo support, and more build minutes on lower tiers. DeployBase offers flat team pricing without per-seat fees or variable charges, plus EU VAT with B2B reverse charge. Choose StaticHost if you need more git providers or monorepo support. Choose DeployBase if you want predictable team costs.
Where they differ
Both EU — different infrastructure
Both DeployBase and StaticHost keep your data in Europe with no US cloud providers. DeployBase runs on Scaleway in Paris with a Bunny.net EU CDN. StaticHost runs on their own servers in Sweden with a datacenter in Helsinki — also using Bunny.net. If your compliance requirement is simply "EU data residency" — both deliver. One difference: DeployBase also uses a European payment processor (Vatly), while StaticHost uses Stripe.
Flat team pricing vs per-seat + overages
DeployBase charges flat tiers in euros — no per-seat fees, no overages, no variable charges. Your bill is the same every month. A 10-person team on Scale costs €49/mo total. The same team on StaticHost Professional costs €144/mo (€49 base + 5 extra seats at €19 each). StaticHost also charges €1 per 10 GB of bandwidth overage and €1 per 100 build minutes over the limit.
Different feature bets
StaticHost supports six git providers including Forgejo, SourceHut, and Azure DevOps, plus monorepo support and custom headers. DeployBase focuses on predictable team pricing, EU VAT with B2B reverse charge for all 27 member states, and AI-assisted deployments via MCP server. Both support the same static site frameworks. If you need niche git providers or monorepo builds, StaticHost has the edge. If you need predictable team costs and VAT automation, that's DeployBase.

Common questions
Do DeployBase and StaticHost use the same CDN?
Yes. Both use Bunny.net as their CDN provider. The difference is the origin infrastructure: DeployBase runs on Scaleway in Paris, while StaticHost runs on their own servers in Sweden with a primary datacenter in Helsinki. For end users, static assets are served from the same Bunny.net edge network in both cases.
Which has better EU data residency?
Both are fully EU-hosted with no US cloud providers for hosting infrastructure. DeployBase stores data in France (Scaleway Paris), StaticHost in Sweden/Finland. Neither uses AWS, GCP, Azure, or Cloudflare. For most EU compliance requirements, either provider satisfies the data residency requirement. One nuance: DeployBase uses a European payment processor (Vatly), while StaticHost uses Stripe (US-based).
How does pricing compare for teams?
DeployBase offers flat tiers with no overages — a 10-person team on Scale pays €49/mo with unlimited members. StaticHost's Professional plan starts at €49/mo with 5 seats; adding 5 more costs €95 extra (€19/seat), totaling €144/mo. StaticHost also charges €1 per 10 GB of extra bandwidth. Both offer 500 GB bandwidth on their €9/mo tier, but StaticHost includes unlimited sites and more build minutes (5,000 vs 1,000).
Does the payment processor matter for EU compliance?
It depends on how strictly your organization defines "no US data transfers." Hosting data (your site files, build logs, analytics) is the primary concern — and both providers keep that in the EU. However, StaticHost processes payments through Stripe, a US company, which means billing data (names, email addresses, payment methods) flows through US infrastructure. DeployBase uses Vatly, a European Merchant of Record, so payment data stays in the EU too. For most teams this isn't a dealbreaker, but for regulated industries or strict compliance policies it can matter.
Can I migrate from StaticHost to DeployBase?
If your site uses static generation (Astro, Hugo, Next.js SSG, SvelteKit adapter-static, Jekyll, Eleventy, Gatsby, Vite), migration is straightforward. Point your Git repository at DeployBase, configure the build command and output directory, and deploy. Custom domains can be moved by updating DNS records. Custom headers and redirect rules may need to be reconfigured depending on framework-level support.
Which supports more static site frameworks?
Both support a similar range of frameworks: Astro, Next.js (SSG), Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby, SvelteKit, Eleventy, Vite, and more. StaticHost additionally lists Zola and Nuxt. The main ecosystem difference is git providers — StaticHost supports six (including Forgejo, SourceHut, and Azure DevOps) compared to DeployBase's three (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket).
Ready to deploy from Europe?
Same git push workflow. EU infrastructure. Predictable team pricing.
