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

Self-hosting a peer-to-peer file transfer tool normally means a container, a certificate and a signalling setup before a single file can move. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account, pick FilePizza from the OneClick catalog and select a domain — no extra fields, xCloud generates everything needed.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the pinned FilePizza image and publish the interface over HTTPS on your domain, shown in the installation details.

  3. Step 03

    Drop A File And Share The Link

    Open the HTTPS FilePizza URL and drop a file onto the page. Copy the link and open it in another browser, keeping the sender's page open until the transfer completes.

Everything FilePizza Does, On Your Own Server

FilePizza runs in full here — the same browser-to-browser file transfer as any hosted instance, on infrastructure you control.

  • Send Files Of Any Size With A Link

    Send files of any size to anyone with a link; the transfer goes directly between the two browsers over WebRTC.

  • No Upload Step, No Server Storage

    No upload step and no server-side storage, so there is no upload size cap from the app or proxy.

  • Zipped Multi-File Transfers, Password Protection

    Multiple files are delivered to the recipient as a zip, and uploads can be password protected.

  • Works On Mobile, Includes Dark Mode

    Works on most mobile browsers and includes dark mode.

  • Verified With A Real Two-Browser Transfer

    Verified with a real two-browser transfer before and after a container restart.

  • Nothing To Back Up

    Nothing needs backing up: no database or volume is used, and a restart only invalidates open transfer links.

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

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

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.
Rahil Maknojia
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 is FilePizza?

FilePizza is a peer-to-peer file transfer app for the browser: share a link and the file streams directly from the sender's browser to the recipient's. This template deploys commit 3258673, since upstream publishes no releases or tags.

Is FilePizza free to use?

FilePizza is free under a BSD-style licence (Copyright 2015 Alex Kern, redistribution with notice permitted). What you pay xCloud for is the dedicated server it runs on, separate from the software itself.

How is FilePizza different from a normal file-sharing service?

Files are not uploaded first. They go directly from the sender's browser to the recipient's browser, so the server only brokers the connection.

How do I sign in?

You do not — there is no login. Anyone with the site address can use it, so add Basic Authentication or IP restrictions if you want to limit access.

What runs alongside FilePizza?

Nothing — it is a single container.

What should I back up?

Nothing. No files, database or volume are kept on the server; transfer channels live in memory only.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update FilePizza?

No. The template pins the image by commit (3258673) and digest; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. Upgrade by bumping the image commit tag and digest together after checking that the newer image is available for your server architecture.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 1 CPU core, 256 MB of RAM and 1 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, comfortable headroom above that floor.

What happens if I close the page mid-transfer?

The link stops working when the sender closes the page, and open links are also forgotten when the container restarts.

Why might a transfer fail to connect?

Both browsers must reach the signalling and STUN services, and without a TURN relay peers behind strict NATs may not connect. By default browsers use the public PeerJS cloud (0.peerjs.com) and Google's STUN server, which see browser IP addresses and temporary transfer identifiers but never the files.

Will this run on an arm64 server?

No. The image is amd64 only and will not start on an arm64 server.

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.
