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

Self-hosting OpenWebUI normally means containers, a domain and a certificate before anything works. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick OpenWebUI from the OneClick catalog. Takes 30 seconds — no server to prepare.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We provision the server, bring OpenWebUI up, and handle the domain and SSL certificate.

  3. Step 03

    Connect a Model

    Open your OpenWebUI address, create your account, and point it at Ollama or an OpenAI-compatible API. The interface is here; the model is the one you connect.

Everything OpenWebUI Does, On Your Own Server

OpenWebUI runs in full here, with your chats and settings on infrastructure you control.

  • Web interface for AI models

    A browser-based chat front end for the models you connect, hosted at your own address.

  • Ollama connection

    Connect a local Ollama server, such as one on the same xCloud account, and chat with the models it serves.

  • OpenAI-compatible APIs

    Point it at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so one interface can front more than one provider.

  • Customizable

    Adjust the interface and behaviour from OpenWebUI's own settings. Your config stays yours.

  • Built for teams

    Run it privately for your team, on a server you own rather than a shared third-party chat service.

  • Your data, your server

    Chats and settings live on your Cloud VPS, not in a vendor's account.

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
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.

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 OpenWebUI?

A customizable web interface for AI models. It connects to Ollama and to any OpenAI-compatible API endpoint, so your team can chat with models from one place. It is an open-source project maintained by its own community, and xCloud is not affiliated with it.

Does OpenWebUI run the models itself?

No. OpenWebUI is the interface. Model inference happens on the Ollama server or API provider you connect. If you want the models on your own hardware too, see [Ollama hosting](/ollama-hosting/).

Can you self-host OpenWebUI?

Yes, that is what this is. Self-hosting normally means setting up containers, a domain and a certificate yourself. On xCloud it is a OneClick app, so the server, domain and SSL are provisioned for you.

Do I need technical skills?

No. There is no terminal and no Docker Compose file to edit. You pick a plan, we deploy, and you sign in. Connecting a model is done in OpenWebUI's own settings.

What are the server requirements?

There is no template manifest for this app, so we do not quote a RAM floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier: a dedicated Cloud VPS with headroom for the interface. Because inference runs on the model server you connect, size that server for the models, not this one.

Where does my data live?

On your own server. Your chats and settings are stored there rather than with a third-party chat service. Note that prompts still go wherever the model you connect runs, so a hosted API provider receives them.

Who manages the app?

xCloud runs the server: provisioning, SSL, patching and monitoring. You own the OpenWebUI configuration, users and data.

Can I run other apps on the same server?

Yes. It is 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.

Ready to Run Your Own AI Interface?

Connect your first server in minutes. No credit card required, and no plan you have to grow into.
