What is Razzia?

Razzia is a straightforward, open-source live quiz game, and a self-hosted Razzia lets a manager build quizzes and start a game while players join from any device by entering a game PIN and a nickname. Upstream describes it as a quiz platform to host on your own server for smaller events, and says it is independent and not affiliated with any third-party quiz service. It is released under the MIT licence.

On xCloud the install runs Razzia 4.0.1 from the official image, pinned by digest, as a single container with no separate database. The razzia_config volume holds quizzes, results, uploaded media and branding. xCloud generates the manager password for the /manager area, and the first start adds an example quiz. Games in progress live in memory, so a restart ends them.

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

Self-hosting a quiz game normally means a container, a volume, a manager secret, a domain and a certificate before the first question. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Razzia from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server — there are no extra fields to fill in.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official Razzia image, pinned by immutable digest, as a single container with no separate database, mount the razzia_config volume for quizzes, results, uploaded media and branding, generate the manager password, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Start A Game
Save the Manager Password from the protected installation credentials, open /manager on your HTTPS URL and sign in. Pick the example quiz or create your own, start a game and share the PIN with your players.

Everything Razzia Does, On Your Own Server

Razzia runs in full here: a live quiz game on your own domain, with a manager area behind a password you control.

Join With A Game PIN
Players open your Razzia URL, enter the game PIN and a nickname. No accounts are needed on the player side.
A Password-Protected Manager
The manager area at /manager is where you create quizzes and start games, and it needs the generated Manager Password.
Media In Your Questions
Upload media of up to 100 MB per file to make questions richer than plain text.
Quizzes That Persist
Quizzes, results and uploads live on the razzia_config volume and survive an xCloud Restart.
One Lightweight Container
A single container with no separate database; measured idle use in QA was about 51 MiB of RAM.
Your Own Domain And HTTPS
Players and the manager both reach Razzia through xCloud-managed HTTPS on a domain you choose.

Razzia vs Alternatives

Kahoot!: As a self-hosted alternative to Kahoot!, Razzia runs game-PIN quizzes on a server you own, with quizzes and results on your own volume. Upstream states it is independent and has no affiliation with any third-party quiz platform.
Mentimeter: In a Razzia vs Mentimeter comparison, Razzia is a single-purpose live quiz game you host on your own domain: players join with a game PIN, and quizzes and results stay on your server.
Rallly: Rallly has its own OneClick page. It runs self-hosted scheduling polls for finding a meeting time, so it is for scheduling rather than live quiz games.
Quizzes built into a slide deck: A quiz inside a slide deck runs on the presenter's laptop alone. Razzia puts the questions on each player's device and scores answers from a game PIN.

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 Razzia with Docker?

Yes, and this template is Razzia Docker hosting without the setup. Upstream recommends Docker; here xCloud runs the pinned ralex91/razzia 4.0.1 image as one container, adds the razzia_config volume, generates the manager password and publishes HTTPS on your domain.

How much RAM does Razzia need?

Very little: the template floor is 64 MB of RAM, one CPU core and 1 GB of disk, and QA measured about 51 MiB idle. The 6 GB plan is the entry rung here, which is far more than a single quiz room needs.

How do players join a Razzia game?

They open your Razzia URL, enter the game PIN and a nickname, and they are in. There are no player accounts, so a class or a room can join within seconds from phones, tablets or laptops.

How do I sign in as the Razzia manager?

Open /manager on your domain and enter the generated Manager Password from the protected installation credentials. The manager can create and edit quizzes, upload media and start games. Razzia has no other user accounts, so keep that password private.

Can anyone join my Razzia games?

Anyone who can reach the URL and knows a game PIN can join that game, by design. Only the manager password unlocks quiz editing and game control. For a stricter gate, add HTTP Basic Auth in front of the whole site, which also blocks players.

What happens to my Razzia quizzes on restart?

Quizzes, results and uploads persist on the razzia_config volume across an xCloud Restart. Games in progress are held in memory, so a restart or redeploy ends them. Run a single instance only, because games are not shared between instances.

What should I back up on a Razzia server?

Copy the contents of the razzia_config volume, which holds quizzes, saved results, uploaded media and branding, and keep the stable environment values with it. The manager password and the JWT secret should stay private, since a copy of either lets someone run your games.

Backups in xCloud

How do I upgrade Razzia?

Razzia 4.0.1 stays pinned until you adopt a newer template version. Copy razzia_config beforehand and skim the upstream release notes. Nothing changes on a running site by itself, and a redeploy keeps the volume, though it ends any game in progress.

Is Razzia free?

Yes. The code is MIT licensed, so running a quiz costs nothing in software fees, and there is no per-player charge however big the room gets. The dedicated Cloud VPS underneath is the only bill, and one small server is plenty for a classroom.

Is Razzia affiliated with Kahoot?

No. Upstream's README says Razzia is an independent, open-source project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any third-party quiz platform. Any resemblance to other quiz platforms is incidental, and xCloud has no association with either.

Is there a Razzia cloud service?

Not from this page. Razzia cloud hosting here is simply your own copy on a Cloud VPS that xCloud provisions, so the quizzes, results and uploads sit on a volume you own, on a domain you choose.

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.
