qBittorrent Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

What is qBittorrent?

qBittorrent is a free, open-source BitTorrent client programmed in C++ and Qt on libtorrent. Upstream aims for it to be a good alternative to other BitTorrent clients, with unicode support and many features. Run on your own server, a self-hosted qBittorrent is an alternative to a rented seedbox service for people who want the client and its files on a machine they control, under the GNU GPL.

On xCloud it is qBittorrent 5.2.4 as the official qbittorrent-nox image, pinned by digest, with the qbittorrent_config and qbittorrent_downloads volumes. xCloud applies your login on every start and serves the web interface over HTTPS. The BitTorrent TCP and UDP ports are public from install, and other peers can see the server's IP address.

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

A qBittorrent server needs the client, a web login that survives restarts, peer ports, two volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first torrent. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick qBittorrent from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain, an administrator username and a password, or let one be generated.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We start qbittorrentofficial/qbittorrent-nox 5.2.4-1, pinned by digest, mount qbittorrent_config and qbittorrent_downloads, apply your login and publish the web interface over HTTPS. The TCP and UDP peer ports are published too.
Step 03
Sign In And Add A Torrent
Sign in with the credentials card, then add a .torrent file or link you have the right to download. To change the login, edit it in the Environment editor and redeploy; a change made inside qBittorrent is reset.

Everything qBittorrent Does, On Your Own Server

qBittorrent runs here as the official client, with its web interface behind a login and downloads on a server you control.

Official qbittorrent-nox
The template runs the official qBittorrent image without a desktop, managed through its standard web interface from any browser.
Web API With The Same Login
qBittorrent has no API key, so scripts and companion tools use the same login as the web interface.
Categories And Resume Data
Settings, categories and torrent resume data live in qbittorrent_config, so the queue survives a restart.
Downloads On A Volume
Completed and incomplete downloads sit in qbittorrent_downloads, with incomplete files under temp, ready to fetch or share.
Public Peer Ports
BitTorrent TCP and UDP ports are published from install so peers can connect. Block them at a provider firewall if you want none.
Host Header Validation
The interface answers only requests for the site domain, and the allowed host name follows the domain if you change it.

qBittorrent vs Alternatives

Seedbox services: As a self-hosted alternative to seedbox services, qBittorrent runs on a Cloud VPS dedicated to you, with the client, files and login under your control.
Deluge: Deluge has its own OneClick page. In a qBittorrent vs Deluge comparison, both are open-source BitTorrent clients with web interfaces, so compare the features you rely on.
qBittorrent Web UI: qBittorrent Web UI has its own OneClick page. It is an alternative interface for managing a qBittorrent instance.
qui: qui has its own OneClick page. It is another web interface for qBittorrent that you can run beside the client.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Can you self-host qBittorrent with Docker?

Yes. qBittorrent publishes an official image, and this template is qBittorrent Docker hosting without the setup: the 5.2.4-1 image pinned by digest, two volumes, a login you set and HTTPS on the web interface, with no Compose file for you to write.

How much RAM does qBittorrent need?

The manifest floor is 256 MB of RAM, one core and 20 GB of disk, plus space for your downloads. The 6 GB plan sits far above that, so the server has room for other apps beside it.

Are the BitTorrent ports open to the internet?

Yes, from install. Docker publishes the TCP port and a separate UDP port directly, which bypasses the host firewall, so peers can connect without setup. Block them at a provider firewall if you want no incoming peers.

Can others see my server IP address on qBittorrent?

Yes. Other peers in a swarm can see the server's public IP address. The template confirms qBittorrent's legal notice on your behalf, so you are responsible for what you download and share; use it only for content you may.

How do I change the qBittorrent web UI password?

Edit QBT_ADMIN_USERNAME and QBT_ADMIN_PASSWORD in the Environment editor and redeploy the site. A password changed inside qBittorrent is replaced by the environment value on the next restart, so the Environment editor is the source of truth.

Why am I locked out of qBittorrent after wrong passwords?

After five failed sign-ins qBittorrent bans the address for an hour. Behind the web proxy visitors share one address, so restarting the site is the way to clear a ban; there is no simpler unban button.

Is qBittorrent open source?

Yes. Its source is GPL version 2 or later and its binaries GPL version 3 or later, with an OpenSSL linking exception, so the client is free to use. You pay for the Cloud VPS, which makes this a qBittorrent cloud of your own.

Where are qBittorrent downloads stored?

In the qbittorrent_downloads volume, with incomplete files under temp, while settings, categories and resume data sit in qbittorrent_config. Both persist across restarts, but neither is backed up automatically, so copy them off the server on your own schedule and check that a restore works.

How do I back up qBittorrent?

Back up qbittorrent_config and qbittorrent_downloads together while the site is stopped, so resume data and files stay consistent. Test a restore, and note that downloads can be large and are backed up by size and value.

Backup and restore Docker apps

How do I upgrade qBittorrent?

The install stays on its pinned 5.2.4-1 image until you adopt a newer template version. Back up both volumes first, because qBittorrent does not promise its configuration can be downgraded. Nothing upgrades automatically, and a downgrade may not read the newer configuration, so keep that backup until the new version has proved itself.

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.
