Listenarr Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Search by title, author, ASIN or ISBN, send downloads to your existing torrent or Usenet client, and let Listenarr organise the finished files into a tidy library — on a server you control. xCloud configures the pinned Listenarr image, a generated administrator login, three persistent volumes and the HTTPS reverse proxy in minutes.

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

Self-hosting Listenarr normally means a container, a database, download-client wiring, a domain and a certificate before a single audiobook is organised. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Listenarr from the OneClick catalog. Enter an administrator username — default admin — and xCloud generates the password and an API key.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official Listenarr image pinned by immutable digest, turn login on and create the administrator before the first start, mount all three persistent volumes, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Connect A Client And Add Your First Book
Open your HTTPS Listenarr URL and sign in with the credentials from your installation page. Add your download client, add your indexers, then search for your first audiobook under Add New.

Everything Listenarr Does, On Your Own Server

Listenarr runs in full here — the same *arr-style automation as any hosted alternative, with your library on infrastructure you control.

Audible And Amazon Metadata
Search by title, author, ASIN or ISBN and add audiobooks with real cover art and metadata.
Torrent And Usenet Integration
Send downloads to qBittorrent, Transmission, SABnzbd or NZBGet, and search several indexers at once.
Automatic Library Organisation
Customisable folder and file naming patterns across MP3, M4A, M4B, FLAC, AAC, OGG and OPUS.
Responsive Web Interface
Browse and manage your library from phone, tablet or desktop, with live download progress.
Login From The First Request
An administrator account xCloud creates during installation guards every page and every protected API call — the site is never open to the public.
Three Volumes, Cleanly Split
Config, audiobooks and downloads each persist on their own volume, all surviving an xCloud restart.

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

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

Ed Ellingham

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.

I use Server Avatar and xCloud and I'll sooner use xCloud than Server Avatar personally.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is Listenarr?

Listenarr is a self-hosted audiobook manager in the *arr family. It finds audiobooks with Audible and Amazon metadata, sends downloads to your existing torrent or Usenet client, and organises finished files into a library. This template deploys version 1.3.4.

What makes Listenarr different from a generic downloader?

It's purpose-built for audiobooks. It matches books to Audible and Amazon metadata, works with the torrent and Usenet clients you already use, and renames and files audiobooks into a clean library.

How do I sign in after installation?

Use the administrator username you chose and the generated password from the installation credentials. Login is required from the very first request.

Does it include a download client?

No. Listenarr connects to your existing qBittorrent, Transmission, SABnzbd or NZBGet. It runs as a single container with its own SQLite database.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

Login turned on before the first start, the generated administrator account and API key, all three persistent volumes, the domain and the HTTPS route.

Is it production-stable?

Upstream labels Listenarr beta software and currently publishes canary builds. The xCloud template pins one verified build by digest, so your install does not change underneath you.

Can I change the administrator password?

Yes, in Settings → Authentication inside Listenarr itself — restarts never reset it.

What should I back up?

All three persistent volumes together while the container is stopped: config (database, settings, API key), audiobooks (your library) and downloads.

Backups in xCloud

Does xCloud automatically update Listenarr?

No. The template pins the reviewed build; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. To upgrade, change the image tag and digest together after reading upstream's release notes — and keep a backup in hand, since upstream ships only pre-release builds.

How does my download client reach the library folder?

The download client runs outside the container, so it needs a shared path or a remote path mapping to /downloads for completed files to be imported.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 512 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 10 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, comfortable headroom above that floor — size the disk for your library.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Listenarr?

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

Can I run other apps on the same server?

Yes. It's a dedicated Cloud VPS, not a locked appliance, so you can deploy other OneClick apps or your own sites beside it as long as the resources are there.

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.
