What is solidtime?

solidtime is an open-source time tracking application for freelancers and agencies. You record time against clients, projects and tasks, set billable rates, and review the result in reports that can be exported as PDF.

It supports several organizations with members and roles, and can import time data from Toggl, Clockify and Timeentry CSV files, so a team can move over without starting from an empty history.

From Sign-Up to Your First Timer In Just 3 Easy Steps

A solidtime stack normally means an app container, PostgreSQL, a PDF renderer, a queue worker, a scheduler, secrets, volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first timer. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick solidtime 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 solidtime image, pinned by immutable digest, with a private PostgreSQL 15 database, a Gotenberg PDF renderer, a queue worker and a scheduler, none with a public port. The solidtime_database and solidtime_storage volumes persist your data, the database and application secrets are generated, and the app is published over HTTPS.
Step 03
Set Up Email, Then Register
solidtime requires email verification, so open the Environment editor, set your SMTP MAIL_* values and Restart before registering. Then open your HTTPS URL, register the first account, verify it from the emailed link, create a client and project, and start the timer.

Everything solidtime Does, On Your Own Server

solidtime runs in full here: time tracking for clients, projects and tasks on your own domain, backed by a database you own.

Clients, Projects And Tasks
Create clients, assign projects to them and break projects into tasks, then track time against any of them.
Billable Rates
Set billable rates for projects, project members, organization members and the organization itself.
Reports And PDF Export
Overview, detailed and shared reporting views, with PDF export rendered by the bundled Gotenberg service.
Timer, Timesheet And Calendar
Day-to-day tracking through timer, timesheet and calendar views.
Organizations, Members And Roles
Run one or several organizations with members and roles, so a team can track time together.
Import From Toggl And Clockify
Bring existing time data over from Toggl, Clockify or a Timeentry CSV rather than starting empty.

What You Can Do With solidtime

Bill clients for the hours you actually worked
Track time against a client, project and task with billable rates, then hand over a PDF report of what was done.
Keep an agency's time data on its own server
Run the whole tracker on a server you control, so your projects, clients and time entries are not held by a third-party SaaS.
Let a whole team track time
Invite teammates into an organization with members and roles; registration is open so people can join.
Move over from another tracker
Import existing data from Toggl, Clockify or a Timeentry CSV instead of re-entering it.

solidtime vs Alternatives

Toggl Track: A hosted time tracker; solidtime covers the same job on a server you run and can import Toggl data.
Clockify: A hosted time tracker with a free tier; solidtime keeps the data on your own server and can import Clockify data.
Kimai: Another open-source time tracker you can host yourself; solidtime differs with its timer, calendar and timesheet views, multi-member organizations and PDF report export.
TimeTagger: A self-hosted tracker built around an interactive timeline and hashtag tags; solidtime is organized around clients, projects, tasks and billable rates.

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.

How do I sign in for the first time?

Register an account in the browser on your HTTPS URL. solidtime enforces email verification, so set your SMTP values first or the new account will stop at the verification screen.

Why do I have to configure SMTP before registering?

Email delivery is not configured by default, and solidtime requires verification in production. Open the Environment editor, set the MAIL_* values and Restart or Redeploy before you register.

Can I turn email verification off?

Not in production. Upstream only skips verification when APP_ENV is local. Without SMTP, new accounts cannot be verified and password resets are not delivered.

What runs alongside solidtime?

PostgreSQL 15, a Gotenberg PDF renderer, a queue worker and a scheduler. None of them has a public port; only the solidtime web interface and API are published over HTTPS.

Can anyone register on my instance?

Registration is open by default so teammates can join. Restrict it from within solidtime once your team is onboarded.

What should I back up?

The solidtime_database volume (PostgreSQL data) and the solidtime_storage volume (application storage and OAuth keys) together, plus the stable environment values including APP_KEY.

Backups in xCloud

What happens if I change APP_KEY?

Changing it invalidates encrypted application data and sessions, so keep it stable.

What survives a restart?

Projects, clients and time entries live on persistent volumes. In QA a project was created, all containers were restarted, and the project was still present.

Can I import data from another tracker?

Upstream supports importing from Toggl, Clockify and Timeentry CSV files.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update solidtime?

No. The template pins solidtime 0.19.1 by immutable digest; new installations use the pinned release, existing sites are not automatically upgraded. Back up first, read the upstream release notes, then bump the readable tag and digest together on your own schedule. Server-level backups and snapshots are available on every Cloud VPS.

What are the server requirements, and why does this page sell 16 GB?

The template's baseline asks for 1 CPU core, 4096 MB of RAM and 10 GB of disk; measured idle use in QA was about 0.6 GB. This page sells the 16 GB tier because the 4096 MB baseline reaches that rung, with real headroom above it.

Is xCloud officially partnered with solidtime?

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

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.
