The best hosting for an internal tool, restricted to the company account
Your tool works, and your colleagues want to use it. It has to open with their Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 account, and for no one else. Here’s where to host it.
By Grégoire Mougeolle, co-founder of Nextmap. Facts checked on November 2, 2026. How this comparison is made.
The right choice depends on your app
- Is your company already a Vercel customer on the Enterprise plan? Stay there: Vercel then opens your projects with the company account1.
- Do a few people who already have a Lovable account need to open the tool? Choose Lovable Cloud: the app opens there by invitation, to ten people at most per project on Free and Pro2.
- Would you rather keep your own servers? Choose Coolify: it’s open source and free, and it turns your servers into a PaaS3.
- Do your colleagues need to sign in with their Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 account, with no sign-in page to code? Choose while: it’s included in the Pro plan, and everything runs in France.
Try while on your app, without an account. Copy the instructions
The comparison
| Host | Your colleagues | A client | Your AI agent | In France |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vercel | The company account on the Enterprise plan1 | A password on Pro, for $20 more per month per project1 | An MCP server with more than 200 tools4 | A region in France if you choose it, the United States by default5 |
| Netlify | SSO on the Enterprise plan6 | A password from the Pro plan up7 | An official MCP server | Functions, on request to support, on Pro |
| Lovable Cloud | By invitation on Free and Pro, the workspace and SSO on Business8 | By invitation, with an account2 | Lovable’s MCP server | No, a Europe region |
| Coolify | Nothing built in: a shared password, or an SSO you set up yourself | Shared HTTP authentication | A built-in MCP server, with limited-permission tokens9 | If your server is there |
| while | The company account, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, from the Pro plan up | A link with a password, which you create | An MCP server with OAuth: sensitive actions wait for your approval | Yes, with Nextmap, a French company |
Vercel, for large teams already there
Vercel protects a project with a password from the Pro plan up, and opens it with the company account on the Enterprise plan1.
Netlify, a password from the Pro plan up
Netlify protects a site with a password from the Pro plan up7, and offers SSO on the Enterprise plan6.
Lovable Cloud, by invitation
A Lovable app can open by invitation, to people who sign in, ten at most per project on Free and Pro2.
Coolify, on your own servers
Coolify protects an app with a shared password, and its SSO opens your instance’s dashboard, not your apps10.
while, your colleagues sign in with the account they already have
Your agent deploys your tool over MCP, and it opens with the company account, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, with no sign-in page to code. Your tool receives the name of the signed-in person. A client gets in through a link you create, with a password your agent never sees. Your data stays in France.
