Easy!Appointments Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Easy Appointments hosting gives a service business its own booking system, with providers, services, customers and appointments on a server you control. Deploy Easy Appointments 1.6.0 as a self-hosted appointment scheduler: xCloud runs the pinned upstream image beside a private MariaDB 11.4.8 service, mounts persistent volumes and publishes it over HTTPS, then hands you to the setup wizard to create your first administrator.

What is Easy!Appointments?

Self-hosted Easy Appointments, written Easy!Appointments upstream, is an open-source appointment scheduling platform. Its README lists appointment and customer management, service and provider organisation, working plans and booking rules, Google Calendar synchronisation, email notifications and a multi-language interface, with code under GPL v3.0 and content under CC BY 3.0. It is an easyappointments alternative to Calendly for businesses that want their booking data and customer records on their own server rather than a vendor's.

On xCloud the template runs the upstream alextselegidis/easyappointments 1.6.0 image and MariaDB 11.4.8, both pinned by immutable digest, with easy_appointments_storage and easy_appointments_db volumes. HTTPS is published on your domain. There is no generated administrator: the application's setup wizard creates the first one, and SMTP is not configured by default.

From Sign-Up to a Live Easy!Appointments Scheduler In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting an appointment scheduler normally means a container, a database, a domain and a certificate before a single booking exists. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Easy!Appointments from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title, tags and domain — there are no app-specific credential fields to fill in.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the upstream Easy!Appointments 1.6.0 image and MariaDB 11.4.8 pinned by immutable digest, mount the application-storage and database volumes, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Complete The Setup Wizard

    Open your Site URL and complete the Easy!Appointments setup wizard. Create the first administrator, your business details, a provider and a service, then verify the service appears in the application.

Everything Easy!Appointments Does, On Your Own Server

Easy!Appointments runs in full here — provider, service, customer and booking management on infrastructure you control.

  • Providers And Services

    Define the providers on your team and the services each one offers, from one admin screen.

  • Customers And Bookings

    Track customer records alongside every appointment they book, past and upcoming.

  • Availability Management

    Set working plans and booking rules so appointments land only inside the hours your providers work.

  • Its Own Setup Wizard

    Easy!Appointments creates your first administrator, business and provider itself — no app-specific field to fill in at deploy time.

  • Private MariaDB

    Providers, services, customers and appointments are stored in a MariaDB database that is never exposed to the internet.

  • Two Volumes, Cleanly Split

    Application storage persists on easy_appointments_storage, and the MariaDB database on easy_appointments_db — both survive a restart.

Everything You Need To Run Your Appointment Scheduling 24/7

What You Can Do With Easy!Appointments

  • Run bookings for a small practice

    Set up providers and the services each offers, then manage the appointments customers book from one admin screen.

  • Keep customer records with each booking

    Track customers next to their past and upcoming appointments instead of in a separate spreadsheet.

  • Limit bookings to real openings

    Use working plans and booking rules so appointments can only land inside the hours a provider actually works.

  • Own the booking data

    Providers, services, customers and appointments sit in a private MariaDB on your Cloud VPS, not with a scheduling vendor.

Easy!Appointments vs Alternatives

Calendly
Calendly is a hosted scheduling service. As an easyappointments alternative to Calendly, you run the app and its MariaDB database yourself, so booking data stays on your own Cloud VPS.

Cal.com
For an easyappointments vs cal.com choice, Cal.com has its own xCloud template, so compare the two before choosing; Easy!Appointments centres on providers, services, customers and working plans.
Rallly
Rallly is a self-hosted tool for polling a group to find a meeting time, with its own xCloud template. Easy!Appointments is for customers booking a provider's time.

Hear what people are saying about us

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!
Brian Geovanny
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.
Kevin Pineda
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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is Easy!Appointments free?

Yes. The README gives the code as GPL v3.0 and the content as CC BY 3.0, and the LICENSE at the 1.6.0 tag is the GNU GPL version 3. No licence is bought separately; the dedicated Cloud VPS is the one xCloud charge.

Does Easy!Appointments sync with Google Calendar?

Upstream lists Google Calendar synchronisation as a feature. The template does not set it up, so you configure it inside the application after the wizard. Test it with a real appointment before telling customers to rely on it.

Can customers book appointments themselves?

The README describes appointment and customer management, service and provider organisation, working plans and booking rules, but not the customer-facing page in detail. After setup, open your booking page and make a test booking before you share the link.

How much RAM does Easy!Appointments need?

The manifest asks for 1024 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 10 GB of disk as a floor. The 6 GB Cloud VPS sold on this page leaves comfortable headroom for MariaDB running alongside the application.

Can you self-host Easy!Appointments with Docker?

Yes. Easy Appointments Docker hosting is set up for you: the template runs the upstream image 1.6.0 and MariaDB 11.4.8 by immutable digest, with two named volumes and HTTPS, so it works as Easy Appointments cloud hosting on your own VPS.

How do I create the first administrator?

Open your HTTPS URL and complete the setup wizard, which creates the first administrator, business, provider and service. xCloud generates and shows no application password for this app, so choose a strong password yourself and keep it private.

Does Easy!Appointments send email out of the box?

No. SMTP is not configured by default. Set the MAIL_* values for an external SMTP provider in the Environment editor before relying on appointment notifications or password-recovery email, then test one real notification before you rely on it.

How do I back up Easy!Appointments?

Back up both volumes together: easy_appointments_storage for uploads, cache and sessions, and easy_appointments_db for the MariaDB data. Use a consistent database dump, keep copies off the server, and test a restore on a spare server before you need it.

How do I upgrade Easy!Appointments?

Nothing upgrades it for you: the install stays on pinned release 1.6.0 until you adopt a newer template version. Take a copy of both volumes first, read the upstream release notes, then check administrator login and a service afterwards.

Can I rotate the database credentials?

Yes, but keep them stable day to day. Changing them in the environment editor alone does not rotate the existing MariaDB account, so change the account first, then update the matching application and database values together and redeploy.

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.
