Installation Service

Managed rollout help

Get ZChat installed or upgraded without turning your rollout into a side project.

If your team wants help deploying ZChat in a production-ready self-hosted environment, we can scope installation or upgrade assistance around your actual infrastructure instead of leaving you to piece everything together alone.

What to expect

Environment first

We scope the work around your operating system, hosting path, database, and certificate setup.

Self-hosted reality

The service is built for real customer environments, not just localhost demos or generic sample servers.

Quoted per scope

Pricing and turnaround depend on your deployment complexity, upgrade path, and the amount of hands-on work involved.

Service 1

Managed installation

Use this when you want help taking ZChat from package to working deployment on your chosen server or VM. Typical work may include environment validation, application setup, database connection guidance, and rollout checks for the main ZChat deployment.

Best for first production deployments or teams that want a faster path through hosting, runtime, and environment setup.
Configuration that belongs inside your day-to-day admin workflow can still be handled later from the product itself.
Administrative access or equivalent deployment access may be required depending on the environment.

Service 2

Managed upgrade

Use this when you already have ZChat running and want help moving to a newer release without carrying the migration and rollout risk alone. Upgrade work is scoped around your current version, hosting model, and any deployment-specific constraints.

Best for older deployments, inherited environments, or teams that want help validating the path before touching production.
Useful when certificates, proxies, runtime changes, or database connectivity make the upgrade less straightforward.

Before you contact us

Tell us whether this is a new deployment or an upgrade.
Include your server operating system, hosting approach, and database version if known.
Mention whether this is localhost evaluation, a pilot rollout, or a production environment.
Owned customer support software

Deploy live chat on your own terms, not on someone else's pricing model.

ZChat gives you the installable server, web dashboard, website widget, and desktop agent tools in one self-hosted product you buy once and keep. Run it on infrastructure you trust and connect AI only if and how you want it.

Deployment

Install on Windows or Linux, behind IIS or Nginx, in a VM, or in Docker if that fits your stack.

Commercial model

One-time purchase, perpetual license, and no monthly per-agent bill attached to growth.

AI Flexibility

Use Ollama locally or connect OpenAI and Anthropic with your own provider accounts.
