HESK Hosting: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

The HESK download page lists PHP 5.6 to 8.5 and MySQL 5.0.7 to 9.x or MariaDB for the free edition. The vendor recommends the latest stable PHP and MySQL, which standard cPanel hosting supports.
Yes. HESK is described as a free PHP help desk that runs with MySQL, so ordinary shared cPanel hosting is enough. As a self-hosted install, you handle updates and backups yourself.
Log in to cPanel, open the Softaculous one-click installer, find HESK, choose your domain and admin login, and press Install. It normally takes a few clicks and needs no manual file upload.
The vendor offers HESK Free for self-hosting, plus paid Cloud plans and a paid branding-removal option for self-hosted installs.
Yes. Every Hostripples cPanel NVMe plan includes the full Softaculous library, so on one account you can run HESK alongside other apps in its category (Customer Support), such as osTicket and Mibew Messenger, plus hundreds of other applications, subject to your plan's resources. You can add each app on its own domain or subdomain and upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
HESK is documented as a light application, so the Starter plan is a sensible start for one site; upgrade any time if traffic grows.
Yes. We migrate your site for free with all hosting plans.
