Free migration
Migrating from Cloudways to Kyzoe
We transfer your website and databases from Cloudways to Kyzoe for free, and set up your mailboxes with us. Hosting, email and personal guidance then come together in one plan.
Everything in one plan
No separate server, email service and maintenance module: at Kyzoe it all comes together, with a fixed contact person.
Email included
Mailboxes on your own domain name are included in your hosting plan, with webmail. You don’t need a separate email service.
WordPress maintenance with Managed WordPress
If you choose Managed WordPress, we keep WordPress itself, your theme and your plugins up to date. You don’t have to worry about it.
Personal help from Belgium
You talk to a small team in Ostend. Call us, or email: on weekdays we answer your email within 4 hours.
Free migration of website and email
We transfer your website, databases and mailboxes. You provide the details, we do the technical work.
SSL and malware protection
A free SSL certificate and malware protection come as standard with your hosting.
Kyzoe and Cloudways: an honest comparison
Cloudways is a powerful cloud platform for those who want to choose and scale servers themselves. We compare with Cloudways Flexible, not with Cloudways Autonomous.
What Cloudways does well
- A choice of several cloud providers and data centres, and easy scaling. (Cloudways – Pricing)
- Free staging and cloning. (Cloudways – Pricing)
- External backups on an adjustable schedule, from hourly to weekly. (Cloudways – Server-level backups)
- 24/7 support via chat and tickets. (Cloudways – Pricing)
Managed WordPress Basic next to Cloudways Flexible (DigitalOcean Premium, Micro)
Cloudways charges per hour, in US dollars and excl. VAT. We therefore do not show a price in euros next to it: that would assume an exchange rate. We do show what is included and what is paid separately.

Information about Cloudways comes from Cloudways’s own website, checked on 27 September 2026. With Cloudways Autonomous, external backups are included in the price. Prices and terms may have changed since then. “Not confirmed” means we could not verify it on Cloudways’s website, not that it is missing. Brand names are the property of their respective owners.
How your migration from Cloudways works
1
Request and inventory
You fill in the migration form. Together we look at what needs to move: websites, databases, mailboxes and domain names.
2
Agree on access and planning
We send you a secure link to share your access details, and we choose a moment together. Never send passwords via the form or ordinary email. Cloudways does not sell domain names itself: you request the transfer code from the registrar where your domain is.
3
Transfer and check
We copy your mailboxes and your website to Kyzoe and check everything. In the meantime your site at Cloudways keeps working as usual.
4
Switch over after agreement
At the agreed moment, first the email, then the DNS and MX records. If your domain name moves too, we start the domain transfer with your transfer code.
5
Checks and aftercare
Together we check that your website and email work properly. Only then do you cancel with Cloudways. At Cloudways, delete your server and your paid add-ons: stopping or pausing a server does not stop billing.

Questions about migrating from Cloudways
Is your question not listed? Email support@kyzoe.be or have a look in the knowledge base.
Can I keep my existing domain name?
Yes. Your domain name remains yours. A migration only changes where your website and email run, and possibly where the domain is registered.
Do you migrate my email too?
Yes. We transfer your mailboxes and existing messages for free. If you use Microsoft 365 or Exchange, you choose: keep it with Microsoft or migrate to Kyzoe too.
Does my domain name have to move too?
No, that is not necessary. The domain can stay with Cloudways or another registrar; we then adjust the DNS so that your website and email point to Kyzoe. If you want everything with one provider, we transfer the domain too with your transfer code.
How do I request my transfer code at Cloudways?
Cloudways does not sell domain names. You request your transfer code from the registrar where your domain is registered. Don’t know where that is? We will find out for you.
What do you need to get started?
The migration form: which websites, domain names and mailboxes you have. We then send you a secure link for your access details. Never send passwords via a form or ordinary email.
How is the switchover planned?
Together, at a time that suits you. We migrate the email first and then switch the DNS, with minimal downtime. DNS changes can take a few hours to become visible everywhere.
When can I cancel my hosting at Cloudways?
Only when the migration and the checks are complete and everything works at Kyzoe. At Cloudways you delete the server (Servers, Delete Server) and switch off paid add-ons; stopping or pausing does not stop billing. You can then cancel your account.
Is WordPress maintenance included?
With Managed WordPress, yes: we keep WordPress, your theme and your plugins up to date. With web hosting you manage WordPress yourself.
What does the free migration service cover?
Transferring your website(s), databases and mailboxes to a Kyzoe hosting plan. A domain transfer costs the same as one year of registration for the extension, incl. VAT (see the domain prices).
