CrossWatch Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Keep Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Trakt, SIMKL and MDBList in sync from one web interface — define sync pairs, run them on a schedule, and review every change before it applies. We put HTTPS, a generated gateway password and persistent storage in front of it.

  • No terminal
  • No technical skills needed
  • No lock-in, cancel anytime

From Sign-Up to a Live CrossWatch In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a sync hub normally means a reverse proxy, a TLS certificate and a way to stop the first visitor from claiming admin, before you can sync a single watchlist. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick CrossWatch from the OneClick catalog. Set the timezone and a gateway username; the gateway password is generated for you.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We provision the server, bring up the pinned CrossWatch and Caddy gateway images, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Start Using It

    Sign in with the gateway credentials, create your CrossWatch administrator account on the setup screen, and connect your providers from Settings.

Everything CrossWatch Does, On Your Own Server

CrossWatch runs in full here — watchlist, rating and history sync across your media servers and trackers, with your tokens stored on infrastructure you control.

  • Sync Watchlists, Ratings And History

    Keep watchlists, ratings, watch history and playback progress aligned between media servers and trackers from one interface.

  • Review Before You Apply

    Define sync pairs, run them manually or on a schedule, and review additions, updates and removals before they go live.

  • Publish Lists For Kometa, Radarr And Sonarr

    New in 0.13.2: publish lists that tools like Kometa, Radarr and Sonarr can consume directly.

  • Webhooks And OAuth Callbacks

    Receive Plex, Jellyfin and Emby webhooks and provider OAuth callbacks on your own HTTPS domain.

  • Gateway-Protected First Run

    A generated Basic Authentication gateway sits in front of the site, so nobody else can claim the first-run administrator account.

  • Settings Survive A Restart

    Settings, the tracker database and provider tokens live on a persistent volume that survives an xCloud Restart.

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

What does CrossWatch do?

It synchronises watchlists, ratings, watch history and playback progress between media servers (Plex, Jellyfin, Emby) and trackers (Trakt, SIMKL, MDBList and others).

How do I sign in?

Your browser first asks for the gateway username and password shown in the install credentials. CrossWatch then asks you to create its own administrator account on first visit.

Why is there a gateway password as well as an app login?

CrossWatch has no setting for its own administrator login, so the first visitor would otherwise become admin. The gateway prevents that.

What runs alongside CrossWatch?

A small Caddy gateway container that handles the Basic Authentication.

What should I back up?

The crosswatch_config volume, which holds settings, the tracker database and provider tokens.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 1 CPU, 256 MB of RAM and 5 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, which is comfortably above that. Measured idle use in QA was about 126 MiB.

Are the webhook and published-list URLs public?

Yes, by design — /webhook/, /published/, /callback and /api/health bypass the gateway so media servers and list consumers can reach them. Keep their tokens private, since a published list can reveal what's on your watchlists.

Is a backup guaranteed to be consistent?

Back up the crosswatch_config volume preferably while the app is stopped, so the tracker database is captured in a consistent state; it also holds provider tokens, so protect backups accordingly.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
