Hi Mirko,
welcome to the forum. AdminTools and mysites.guru are both great, and plenty of Joomla pros trust them for good reason. HTProtect just tackles the same two jobs - securing a Joomla site and managing many - a bit differently:
- Autonomous protection. WAF, virtual patching, integrity checks, malware scanning and hardening run on their own - no reacting to every CVE, no re-hardening after updates. The site stays (in most cases) protected on its own.
- Zero-trust multi-site. One dashboard for updates, scans, backups and fleet-wide bulk actions - but we store no site passwords and no master key. Every command is signed in your own browser, so a breach of our servers can't reach your sites.
- Free at the core. Protection is free; central management beyond 5 sites is a small subscription (from €8/month), priced only by site count. Every security feature is in every tier.
- Maximum overview and performance. Fast and clear even across a large fleet - plus voice control, and connect Claude or ChatGPT to check and maintain your sites in plain language. And we keep evolving it with the latest developments - the AI side in particular.
Since you're already testing, the autonomous side you'll see for yourself. If there's a specific AdminTools or mysites.guru feature you rely on, just ask - I'll tell you straight whether HTProtect covers it, and if not, I'll look at adding it.
