Stack2 vs Digital Pacific

Digital Pacific gives you hosting. Stack2 gives you an agency platform.
Dashboard, AutoCare, white-label tools — built in.

Digital Pacific is a solid Australian hosting provider with reseller options for agencies. But reseller hosting and an agency platform are different things. Stack2 was built specifically for agencies managing WordPress client sites — with the management tooling, care plan automation, and white-label client tools that reseller hosting doesn't provide.

Both Stack2 and Digital Pacific are Australian-owned with AU data residency. The difference is in the agency toolset built on top of the hosting layer.

The difference

Reseller hosting vs an agency WordPress platform.

Digital Pacific

Reseller hosting gives you accounts. Not a management platform.

Digital Pacific's reseller hosting lets you provision hosting accounts for clients. But there's no central WordPress management view, no health monitoring across sites, no bulk update workflow, and no integrated client tools. You're managing individual cPanel accounts, not a unified agency platform.

Stack2

A purpose-built agency platform, not packaged shared hosting.

Stack2 was designed for agencies from day one. The dashboard surfaces health scores, uptime, pending updates, and backup status across every client site. One view, all clients, instant overview — the way an agency should work.

Digital Pacific

Care plans still require manual work every single month.

Digital Pacific manages the servers. The care plan — applying updates, documenting what changed, producing a report, sending it to the client — is entirely on you. For agencies with 20+ clients on monthly retainers, this is substantial recurring overhead.

Stack2

AutoCare: the care plan runs itself.

Updates applied on schedule, branded client report generated, emailed to the client — automatically, every month. AutoCare is what makes care plan billing genuinely passive. No manual trigger, no monthly loop through every client.

Digital Pacific

No white-label client tools built into the hosting.

Digital Pacific offers reseller hosting — you can brand the client-facing control panel, but there are no built-in tools for sending branded client reports, managing client access to their own site data, or delivering automated care plan deliverables.

Stack2

White-label tools built into every plan.

Branded client reports sent automatically via AutoCare. Client-specific access controls so clients can see their site's health without accessing others. The white-label layer is built into the platform, not an add-on you configure yourself.

Not in reseller hosting

AutoCare — what reseller hosting can't give you.

Reseller hosting solves the infrastructure problem. AutoCare solves the care plan problem. Updates applied on your schedule, a branded report generated and emailed to the client — automatically. It's the difference between selling care plans that take time to deliver and care plans that deliver themselves. No other Australian host offers this.
