WHY UCARTZ

Your Canada Server, Our Engineers on Standby.

Built for agencies, backup teams and developers who want full control: root access at an unmanaged price, with our engineers ready when a job needs more hands.

Control at the unmanaged price

Set up web stacks, backup jobs and build runners exactly as you like, and pay only for the server.

Quick help from real engineers

A backup job that stopped overnight, or a mail record a client's provider won't accept: our engineers help with short tasks like these, in most cases at no extra charge.

An expert when the job is big

Setting up Law 25 logging and encryption across several servers is more than a quick fix. Hire one of our engineers as an add-on, for a single job, by the hour or for a month, then close it and keep running things yourself. No lock-in.

One account, any location

Your Canada plan sits on the same Ucartz account and bill as servers you add in our other locations, with no separate contract for each country. See every location we run.

WHERE THE SERVERS ARE

Hosted in Montreal, Quebec.

Every plan on this page is hosted in Montreal, Quebec. That keeps your data on Canadian soil, close to users in Quebec and Ontario, and within easy reach of the north-eastern United States.

  • City and country, stated plainly

    Your server is in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Not "somewhere in North America", and not a US machine with a Canadian IP.

  • Canada's internet exchanges

    Canada has a mature exchange ecosystem. TorIX in Toronto is the country's largest internet exchange, and Montreal has its own exchange, CANIX Montreal (formerly QIX), where networks meet and exchange traffic locally.

  • Data stays in Canada, and in Quebec

    A Montreal server keeps data inside Canada and inside Quebec, which helps when a client, contract or internal policy asks where personal information is stored. See the privacy section below for what this does and does not cover.

  • Useful for EU facing businesses too

    The European Commission recognises Canada as offering adequate protection for commercial organisations, which can simplify things if you also serve customers in the European Union.

PIPEDA AND LAW 25

What Canadian Privacy Law Expects From You.

PIPEDA: Canada's federal privacy law for the private sector governs how organisations collect, use and disclose personal information in commercial activity. Alberta, British Columbia and Quebec have their own similar laws. Where your server sits is one part of that framework.

Quebec Law 25: Since September 2023, organisations must assess the privacy impact before sending personal information outside Québec, and cover the transfer in a written agreement. A Montreal server keeps Quebec data in Quebec.

What Location Covers: A Montreal server gives you Canadian and Quebec data residency. It does not make you compliant on its own: your policies, access controls, retention rules and contracts still matter.

How Our Engineers Help: Tell us your requirements and our engineers will set up disk encryption, firewall rules, SSH-key login, log retention and backups. General information only, not legal advice.

Canada Privacy Checklist

  • Host main database and applications in Montreal, Quebec
  • Conduct privacy impact assessment before sending data outside Québec
  • Execute written agreements for cross-border data transfers under Law 25
  • Implement PIPEDA safeguards: disk encryption & SSH-only login
  • Configure automated offsite backups and log retention policies
PLANS AND PRICING

Choose Your Canada Server.

Nine configurations, all in Montreal, Quebec, each at one flat monthly price with no setup fee. The price shown is the price you pay every month.

These are proven Intel Xeon E3 servers from 2012 to 2014 (Ivy Bridge and Haswell), with DDR3 memory and software RAID, which is why the price is low. They suit websites, storage, backups and development work. The E3-1231 v3 with 2 x 480 GB SSD is sold from two Montreal data centres, so it has two prices.

Available in: Canada (Montreal).

USE CASES

What People Run on a Canada Server.

Honest hardware at a flat price fits steady, predictable workloads best. These are the jobs this range does well.

Canadian websites and stores

WordPress, WooCommerce and business sites for Canadian customers, on a machine you don't share, with unmetered traffic so a busy month costs the same as a quiet one.

Backups and storage in Canada

The Triple Drive and Quad Drive plans (three or four 2 TB SATA drives) give you several terabytes of software RAID storage in Montreal for offsite backups, archives and file sync, kept inside Canada.

Business apps with Quebec data

CRMs, booking systems and internal tools that hold personal information about people in Quebec, hosted in Quebec. See the privacy section for what that does and doesn't cover.

Development, staging and CI

Full root access and a flat monthly price make a dedicated box a cheap home for build runners, staging copies and test environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about the plans, support and billing.

Plans run from $91.99 to $109 a month across 9 configurations, billed monthly with no setup fee. Each plan in the table above lists its CPU, RAM, storage, bandwidth, IPs and locations.

Every plan on this page is in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The location is fixed once the server is delivered.

They are the same build sold from two different data centres. Each data centre sets its own costs for power, space and bandwidth, so the same server can be priced differently by location. The specs are the same; choose the site that suits you.

Not on its own. PIPEDA applies to private sector organizations that collect, use or disclose personal information in the course of commercial activity, and it governs how your organization handles that information, not only where the server sits. Three provinces, Alberta, British Columbia and Quebec, have their own similar laws for the private sector. A Montreal server can support your data residency plans, and our engineers can help configure it, but this is general information, not legal advice.

Under Law 25, in force on this point since September 2023, an organization must assess the privacy impact before sending personal information outside Québec, and must cover the transfer in a written agreement. Keeping that information on a server in Montreal, Quebec is one way to limit how often the question comes up. Treat this as background only, not legal advice.

There is no transfer quota to watch. The port itself is the limit, and at full speed for a whole month a 250 Mbps port moves about 81 TB.

The Canada range uses proven Intel Xeon E3 processors: the E3-1225 v2 and E3-1245 v2 from Intel's 2012 Ivy Bridge generation and the E3-1231 v3 from the 2014 Haswell generation, all with DDR3 memory. None of them is current generation silicon. They are an affordable, stable choice for web hosting, storage, backups and development servers.

Dedicated servers are delivered within 2 to 46 business hours of payment, depending on the location and server type. Business hours are our billing office's working hours in India (IST), excluding public holidays.

No. Dedicated servers are not covered by the 30-day money-back guarantee, because the hardware is set up for you. The conditions are in section 8 of our Terms and Conditions, so ask us before you order if you are unsure which plan fits.

No. The location is fixed when you order. To use another location, order a new server there, move your data and cancel the old one (Appendix B.8 of our terms).

Each plan in the table lists its usable IPv4 addresses. IPs are final once the server is delivered (Appendix B.7 of our terms). Extra subnets from /29 to /24 can be ordered separately, each with its own gateway.

No. These plans don't include a DDoS mitigation service. If you need one, ask us before you order and we will tell you which locations can offer it.

Yes. Port 25 is open and dedicated servers have no fixed sending limit. Spam, unsolicited mail and other mail abuse are prohibited under sections 3 and 7 of our Acceptable Use Policy.

Where the data centre offers it, IPMI or KVM console access is usually available free on request. On Supermicro servers the BMC licence for HTML5 virtual media is activated, so you can mount an ISO from your browser.

No. You are responsible for backups on a dedicated server (section 5 of our terms). Our engineers can set up a backup routine for you as on-demand work.

Yes. Every self-managed Canada dedicated server includes Free Basic Managed Support: complimentary, best-effort help from our support team with quick tasks of about 5 minutes, such as boot and access checks, OS reinstalls, IP and DNS pointing and first-level troubleshooting. You keep full root access and control.

Yes. Hire a Ucartz engineer only when you need one, from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, or on a monthly plan. There is no long-term contract, and you can stop the extra support as soon as the work is done.

Yes. Our team deploys private LLMs, n8n workflow automation and custom build systems on your own server, then hands everything over with documentation.
