At the time of acquisition in 2008 by Oakley Capital, Host Europe operated two web-hosting divisions. "Webfusion" in the UK, a market leader for domain registration and the second largest shared hosting provider, and "Host Europe GmbH" in Germany, the market leader in standardised managed hosting services.

In October 2010, after achieving significant organic growth in its web-hosting divisions Host Europe was sold to Montagu Private Equity.
