SOLUTIONS / BUILT AROUND YOUR WORK
Own the outcome.
Not the automation.
A freelancer needs a dependable handoff. An agency needs the same dependable handoff, again and again, for different clients. SysLauncher handles the preparation so neither has to build an automation product of their own.
THE SESSION ENDS. THEIR SERVER CONTINUES.
01THE INDEPENDENT PROFESSIONAL
One client.
One server. Done right.
You build websites, applications or client projects. You shouldn't have to maintain a second project just to prepare a new Linux server.
A TYPICAL FREELANCE JOB
-
01
A client needs a server.
You have a fresh Linux installation and a clear brief, not weeks to build configuration tooling.
-
02
Choose the preparation.
Select the supported OS, server role and optional backup. Follow the actual work in your browser.
-
03
Deliver, then move on.
The configuration is checked and handed over. Your customer keeps their own server, without a required SysLauncher subscription.
One server is a valid order.
Buy the work you need, even when there is no fleet to manage or subscription to justify.
No playbook ownership.
No need to develop, test and maintain your own Ansible roles for the defined SysLauncher setup.
Your client stays in control.
Optional private ArielPanel runs on the customer's infrastructure; it is not a persistent SysLauncher agent.
02THE REPEAT DELIVERY BUSINESS
Many customers.
One consistent standard.
A web agency buys preparation repeatedly, often for different end customers. Each delivery should be predictable, documented and independently owned by its beneficiary.
Repeatability without a private automation team.
Apply the same defined setup process across eligible customer servers, without maintaining the implementation yourself.
An individual result for every client.
Each server has its own execution state, verification evidence and handoff. One customer's infrastructure is not another's.
A predictable cost per delivery.
Price the preparation into each customer project instead of making a recurring management platform a prerequisite.
03DIFFERENT TOOLS. DIFFERENT RESPONSIBILITIES.
Why not just
use Ansible?
You can. Ansible is powerful and agentless. The question is whether you want to create and operate the automation—or purchase a defined, verified server preparation service.
01 /DO IT YOURSELFManual scripts
You write, run, verify and troubleshoot the commands and their dependencies.
Your scripts and tools; your engineering time and maintenance.
02 /OPEN SOURCEAnsible Core
You create or adapt playbooks and roles. Ansible can check state and run without a target agent.
Free CLI engine. A web controller is a separate choice.
03 /SELF-HOSTED UIAWX
You maintain the web controller, its environment and the automation content.
Open-source web UI and API; self-hosting and operating effort.
04 /ENTERPRISE PLATFORMRed Hat Ansible Automation Platform
Enterprise automation platform and supported tooling; your team still defines or adopts automation content.
Commercial subscription, managed-node licensing, enterprise web UI and support.
05 /DONE-FOR-YOU SETUPSysLauncher
SysLauncher owns the defined preparation flow: inspect, configure, verify, report and hand off.
Order and see work in the browser. Pay per setup; no resident SysLauncher agent.
The price of a web interface depends on which Ansible product you mean.
Ansible Core and AWX are open-source. Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform is commercially subscribed. An April 2026 European reseller list quoted €12,584 before tax for a one-year Standard subscription covering 100 managed nodes. This is a dated example, not a universal quote or a like-for-like comparison with a one-time server setup.

04A DIFFERENT KIND OF FINISH LINE
The job ends.
Ownership doesn't.
SysLauncher leaves after completing the job. Your server keeps working, with the software and backup schedules you chose. If ordered, ArielPanel remains privately available on your server—not as a SysLauncher control agent.
