Your own Mac in the cloud — a dedicated remote Mac server in Europe
Rent a cloud Mac server on real Apple silicon: a dedicated Mac mini M4 or Mac Studio M4 Max, racked in our Tier III datacenter in the Netherlands. No virtualisation, no shared cores — just a remote macOS machine you reach from anywhere, with remote power and console access included. From €99 per month.
What a remote Mac server from vBoxx gives you
A macOS cloud machine that behaves exactly like the Mac on your desk — because it is one. Yours alone, always on, and reachable over SSH, Screen Sharing or a browser-based console.
- 100% bare-metal Apple silicon — no virtualisation
- Hosted in NL (ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR)
- Remote APC power reboot included
- Optional JetKVM with virtual media
Dedicated cloud Mac vs. a virtual Mac (Mac VM)
Most “virtual Mac” offers hand you a slice of a shared host. We hand you the whole machine.
| vBoxx remote Mac server | Shared virtual Mac / Mac VM | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware | Dedicated Mac mini M4 or Mac Studio M4 Max | Virtualised slice of a shared Mac |
| Performance | All CPU, GPU and NVMe are yours | Varies with neighbours on the host |
| Persistence | Always-on machine, state kept between sessions | Often reset or reallocated |
| Recovery | APC remote power + optional JetKVM console with virtual media | Support ticket |
| Location & compliance | Amsterdam, Naaldwijk or Frankfurt · ISO/IEC 27001, GDPR | Usually US-based |
| Billing | Flat monthly price from €99, no hourly surprises | Hourly, with minimum allocations |
Access your cloud Mac
SSH, VNC / Screen Sharing, Apple Remote Desktop or your own remote tooling over a public IPv4 address and 1 Gbit/s uplink — from macOS, Windows or Linux.
Choose your macOS
We ship macOS Tahoe 26 by default, with Sequoia available. With the JetKVM add-on you mount your own ISO/DMG and reinstall your remote Mac server yourself.
Stay in control
Power on, power off and hard-reboot per outlet from the portal, with an audit trail — plus remote hands in the datacenter when hardware needs a human.
