Are PHP EOL versions safe?

Even though we offer you the possibility to run old PHP versions that are already EOL (End of Life, meaning they no longer receive official updates), they are safe and you can use them without problems.

Because we use CloudLinux operating systems, they also provide old PHP versions for which CloudLinux performs security updates when necessary. This is possible because PHP is open source software.

The PHP versions that are currently EOL are PHP 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, and 8.0.

At this time, we offer on all hosting servers the option to choose which PHP version runs for your account. You can choose between PHP versions 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5.
