Integrations & Tech

Choosing the right server for an on-premise Bitrix24 installation is one of the first decisions that determines long-term stability. This guide gives concrete CPU, RAM, and storage figures for four deployment sizes — 50, 100, 500, and 1,000+ users — drawn from real production audits and migration projects.

A self-hosted Bitrix24 installation is only as secure as its configuration — outdated stack components, exposed PHP errors, and missing 2FA are among the most common critical findings in real-world audits. This checklist covers all 25 controls across the OS, web server, database, application, access management, and monitoring layers.

Self-hosted Bitrix24 supports Active Directory, LDAP, and SAML-based SSO out of the box — giving enterprise IT teams centralized identity control without forcing employees to manage a separate CRM password. This guide covers how each integration works, what prerequisites matter, and where the common pitfalls are.

A self-hosted Bitrix24 instance running on a single server is a single point of failure; a master-replica cluster with a load balancer eliminates that risk and keeps the portal available even when one node goes down.

A self-hosted Bitrix24 instance gives you full data sovereignty — but it also makes you solely responsible for backups and recovery. This guide covers what to back up, how to set RPO/RTO targets, and how to test that your recovery actually works.

Self-hosted Bitrix24 runs on any Linux VPS or IaaS instance — AWS EC2, Azure VM, Hetzner, or your own hardware — giving you full control over data residency and infrastructure. The deployment process follows the same playbook regardless of cloud provider: provision a compliant server, run the official Bitrix Environment installer, configure DNS, SSL, SMTP, and harden the platform before handing it to users.
