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

A web file manager normally means a container, an admin account, a signing key, two volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first upload. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick FileBrowser Quantum from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server. There is nothing else to fill in: xCloud generates the admin password and the session signing key.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the official FileBrowser Quantum 2.0.8-beta image, pinned by immutable digest, mount the filebrowser_files and filebrowser_data volumes, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Upload

    Open your domain and sign in as admin with the generated password. Upload a file or create a folder; everything lands on the filebrowser_files volume. Add users from Settings, User management, each with a password of at least 12 characters.

Everything FileBrowser Quantum Does, On Your Own Server

FileBrowser Quantum runs in full here: search, previews, sharing, users, access rules and WebDAV, on volumes you own.

  • Indexed Search

    Find files instantly across the served tree instead of walking folders.

  • Previews And Share Links

    Preview common file types in the browser and hand out share links.

  • Users With Per-Folder Rules

    Multiple users, each with access rules per folder; public sign-up is disabled.

  • WebDAV Access

    Mount the same files from desktop clients over WebDAV, signed by the same session key.

  • The Maintained Fork

    Quantum is the actively developed fork of File Browser, and the pinned 2.0.8-beta includes every published security fix.

  • Files And Database Apart

    Served files live on filebrowser_files at /srv; the database on filebrowser_data.

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!

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is FileBrowser Quantum?

FileBrowser Quantum is a self-hosted web file manager with indexed search, previews, sharing links, multi-user access rules and WebDAV, the actively maintained fork of the archived File Browser project, released under the Apache-2.0 licence. This template deploys version 2.0.8-beta.

Why a -beta release?

Upstream tags every 2.x release -beta without marking them as pre-releases. The template pins 2.0.8-beta on purpose: it includes the fix for every published advisory, including GHSA-3846-gh75-gp3m and the critical GHSA-8f9r-wg7w-pfw8, while the newest stable-channel release is still affected. Read release notes before moving an existing install.

How do I change the admin password?

Set ADMIN_PASSWORD to a new value of at least 12 characters in the Environment editor and Save & Redeploy. It is re-applied on every start, so a password changed inside FileBrowser reverts after a restart. Other users' passwords live in the database and are not affected.

What does JWT_SECRET do?

It signs login sessions, API tokens and share links. Changing it signs everyone out and invalidates API tokens and WebDAV logins, so leave it alone.

Is there an upload size limit?

Browser uploads go in 10 MB chunks and are fine at any size. A WebDAV client or API call that sends a large file as one request, or a user who raises the upload chunk size, hits the proxy's 100 MB request limit and gets HTTP 413.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The pinned FileBrowser Quantum image, the url, username and password shown in the credentials panel, persistent storage on filebrowser_files and filebrowser_data, the domain and the HTTPS route. FileBrowser Quantum stays on internal port 80, reachable only through xCloud nginx.

What should I back up?

Both volumes together: filebrowser_files (the served files under /srv) and filebrowser_data (the database with users, rules and shares). Keep JWT_SECRET with the environment backup so sessions and share links survive a restore.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update FileBrowser Quantum?

No. The template pins FileBrowser Quantum 2.0.8-beta by immutable digest; new installations use the pinned release, existing sites are not automatically upgraded. Back up first, read the upstream release notes, then update the image on your own schedule. Server-level backups and snapshots are available on every Cloud VPS.

What are the server requirements, and why does this page sell 6 GB?

The template manifest asks for 1 CPU core, 512 MB of RAM and 5 GiB of disk as a floor for FileBrowser Quantum. This page sells the 6 GB tier as the entry rung, with real headroom above that floor.

What survives a restart?

Everything on filebrowser_files and filebrowser_data, because they are persistent named volumes. Restarting the container does not touch that data.

Is xCloud officially partnered with FileBrowser Quantum?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the FileBrowser Quantum project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source FileBrowser Quantum project.

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.
