"We maintain the entire system on our own server clusters," said Matt Heaton owner of SimpleScripts. "We built this system to allow web hosts the ability to offer a simple, fast and self maintained auto-installation system."

SimpleScripts is designed to work on multiple hosting platforms and as of today, the system is compatible with CPanel, Plesk, VPS and dedicated server hosting. Matt Heaton has integrated SimpleScripts for all of the 900,000 plus domains hosted with his companies: BlueHost, HostMonster and FastDomain. These companies are currently averaging over 30,000 SimpleScripts installations per month.
