Sortarr Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Sortarr hosting on xCloud lets you deploy Sortarr, a read-only analytics and organisation tool for media libraries, on your own domain. xCloud runs the pinned official image as one container with a persistent data volume and publishes it over HTTPS. Sortarr has no default login, so you open the setup page straight after install to connect Sonarr, Radarr or your media server and set the Basic Auth login.

What is Sortarr?

Sortarr is a read-only analytics and organisation tool for media libraries. It uses data from Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Jellyfin and Emby, and history sources such as Tautulli and Jellystat, to find missing media, mismatches and optimisation opportunities, showing size, bitrate, codecs, languages and frame rate where the source provides them. Upstream says it never modifies, moves or renames your media. A self-hosted Sortarr is media library analytics on your own server. It is MIT licensed and upstream says it is now in maintenance mode.

On xCloud it is Sortarr 0.9.0, the official image pinned by digest, as one container with no database. The sortarr_data volume holds settings, secret files, the session secret and caches. The media servers you connect must be reachable from the Sortarr container, and the connection details and login are saved by the setup page, not the environment.

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

Self-hosting Sortarr normally means a container, persistent storage, a domain and a certificate before your library stats are even connected. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Sortarr from the OneClick catalog. Choose a domain — no extra fields are needed at install time.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official Sortarr image pinned by immutable digest, mount the persistent data volume, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Finish Setup And Connect Your Library
Open https://your-domain/setup right away — until setup is saved, anyone who reaches the URL can complete it. Enter your Sonarr/Radarr URL and API key (or Plex/Jellyfin/Emby URL and token), set your Basic Auth username and password, and open the dashboard.

Everything Sortarr Does, On Your Own Server

Sortarr runs in full here: read-only library analytics, reading from the media servers you already run.

One Dashboard For Every Library
Analyse Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Jellyfin or Emby libraries side by side in one interface.
Size, Bitrate And Codec Columns
Spot optimisation opportunities with filters and chips across size, bitrate, codec, language and quality.
Up To Six Instances At Once
Run up to three Sonarr and three Radarr instances side by side in the same dashboard.
Optional Playback Overlays
Add playback and history data from Tautulli, Tracearr, Jellystat, Streamystats or Plex, plus Mismatch Center for comparing providers.
Read-Only By Design
Sortarr never moves, renames or modifies your media — it only reads from the servers you connect.
Survives A Restart
Settings, stored secrets and library caches live on the persistent data volume — QA confirmed this across a container restart.

What You Can Do With Sortarr

See which files take the most space
Sort your library by size, bitrate and codec to find the biggest files, so you know what to re-encode or remove when a disk fills up.
Spot mismatches between servers
Compare what Sonarr or Radarr reports with your media server in the Mismatch Center, so missing or mismatched titles stand out before viewers notice.
Audit a library without risking it
Inspect the whole collection from a read-only dashboard that cannot delete media, change Sonarr or Radarr settings or trigger downloads.
Cover several Sonarr and Radarr instances
Connect more than one Sonarr and Radarr instance and view them together, so a split library is analysed as one collection.

Sortarr vs Alternatives

Manual library audits: Checking sizes and codecs by hand means opening files one at a time. Sortarr reads them from Sonarr, Radarr and your media server and shows breakdowns in one read-only dashboard.
Tautulli: Tautulli has its own OneClick page. Upstream lists Tautulli as a history source Sortarr can read, so Sortarr adds library size and codec analysis beside Tautulli's playback data.
Jellystat: Jellystat has its own OneClick page. Sortarr can also draw on Jellystat history, and adds read-only analysis of file size, bitrate and codec across your libraries.
Maintainerr: Maintainerr has its own OneClick page. Sortarr only analyses and never deletes media or changes Sonarr and Radarr, so it suits a library review before you decide anything.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How much RAM does Sortarr need?

The template floor is 512 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 5 GB of disk. Upstream publishes no memory figure; the template notes about 100 MB with a small library, with caches growing with library size. The 6 GB plan is ample.

Can you self-host Sortarr with Docker?

Yes, and this template is sortarr docker hosting without the setup: the official image pinned by digest, one sortarr_data volume and HTTPS on your own domain, with no database or sidecar. The Basic Auth login is set on the setup page.

Does Sortarr change my media or Sonarr settings?

No. Upstream says Sortarr does not modify, move or rename your media, and it will not delete media, change Sonarr or Radarr configuration or trigger downloads. It only reads data from the services you connect.

What do I need to connect to Sortarr?

The URL and API key of your Sonarr or Radarr, or the URL and token of Plex, Jellyfin or Emby. These services must be reachable from the Sortarr container. Enter them on the setup page; editing the environment has no effect.

How do I sign in to Sortarr?

Open the setup page right after install and set a Basic Auth username and password. Sortarr has no default login, and until setup is saved anyone who reaches the URL can open it. Afterwards, anyone with the login sees your library statistics.

Is Sortarr an alternative to manual library audits?

For analysing a library, yes. Upstream describes a read-only tool that finds missing media, mismatches and optimisation opportunities from Sonarr, Radarr and media-server data. It makes no comparison with other tools.

Is Sortarr free?

Yes. Sortarr uses the MIT licence at no charge, though upstream says the project is now in maintenance mode. Only the Cloud VPS costs money, so this Sortarr cloud install is yours alone.

How do I back up Sortarr?

Back up the complete sortarr_data volume as one unit. It holds the saved settings, secret files, session secret and caches. Losing it means repeating the setup page, but your media and your Sonarr and Radarr data are untouched.

Backup and restore Docker apps

How do I upgrade Sortarr?

Sortarr stays on its pinned v0.9.0 image until a newer template version is adopted. Copy sortarr_data beforehand and check the release notes. Upgrades never run on their own.

What if saving Sortarr settings fails with a CSRF error?

Set SORTARR_CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS to your exact https origin in the Environment editor and redeploy. A CSRF origin mismatch means the address you use differs from the one Sortarr was told to trust.

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.
