Uptime Kuma Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Watch your own sites and services instead of trusting someone else's dashboard. Uptime Kuma is free and open source under the MIT licence; we handle the server, the HTTPS route and the persistent volume — you create the first administrator account and your own checks.

  • No terminal
  • No technical skills needed
  • No lock-in, cancel anytime

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

Self-hosting Uptime Kuma normally means a container, a domain, a certificate and persistent storage before a single check runs. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Uptime Kuma from the OneClick catalog. There are no app-specific fields to fill in — just your site title, server and domain.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We provision the server, bring up the pinned Uptime Kuma 2.5.0 container, mount uptime_kuma_data at /app/data, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Create Your Admin Account And Check

    Open your HTTPS URL, complete Uptime Kuma's own first-run setup to create the administrator account, then add a harmless HTTP monitor to confirm checks work before wiring up real endpoints or notifications.

Everything Uptime Kuma Does, On Your Own Server

Uptime Kuma has no hosted tier to upsell into — the free MIT-licensed application is the whole product, and here it runs on infrastructure you control.

  • HTTP, TCP, DNS, Ping And More

    Check web endpoints, raw ports, DNS records, ping and WebSocket connections from one dashboard, with response-time history kept for each.

  • TLS Certificate Checks

    Get warned before a certificate expires, not after a customer's browser starts throwing warnings.

  • Public Status Pages

    Publish a status page for a product or customer site, built into Uptime Kuma with no separate service to run.

  • Your Own Notification Providers

    Wire up email, Slack, Discord, webhooks or any of Uptime Kuma's other providers with credentials you configure and control.

  • No Docker Socket Exposure

    This template intentionally excludes host Docker-socket monitoring. Container-level checks are not part of this deployment.

  • One Volume For Everything

    The SQLite database, monitor configuration and history, status pages and notification config all live on one persistent volume.

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!

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

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

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.

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.

What is Uptime Kuma?

Uptime Kuma is a free, self-hosted monitoring application. It checks endpoints over HTTP(S), TCP, DNS, ping, WebSocket and certificate expiry, keeps response-time and uptime history, sends alerts through notification providers you configure, and can publish public status pages. This template deploys version 2.5.0.

How do I self-host Uptime Kuma?

On xCloud it is a OneClick app: pick it from the catalog, choose a site title, server and domain, and we provision the pinned Uptime Kuma 2.5.0 container, the persistent data volume, the domain and the SSL certificate for you in about five minutes. There are no app-specific installation fields to fill in.

Does xCloud create an admin account for me?

No. There are no generated app credentials for this template. Uptime Kuma's own first-run setup creates the initial administrator account the first time you open the HTTPS URL — that account and its password are yours to set and keep secure.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The local port allocation, the rendered Docker Compose, the pinned Uptime Kuma 2.5.0 image by immutable digest, the persistent uptime_kuma_data volume, the domain and the HTTPS route. The app's origin port is bound to localhost, so the container is never directly exposed to the internet.

What should I do after the first deploy?

Open your HTTPS URL, complete Uptime Kuma's setup wizard to create the administrator account, then add a harmless HTTP monitor and confirm it reports correctly before configuring real customer endpoints or notification-provider credentials.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 512 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 2 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, comfortably above that. A handful of monitors runs fine on the entry size; larger monitor counts or longer history retention should scale from measured memory, disk and check-interval load.

What data should I back up?

The complete uptime_kuma_data volume mounted at /app/data — the SQLite database, monitor configuration and history, status pages and notification configuration all live there. Copy it off the application server, and for a consistent snapshot, stop or quiesce the container first, then restart and test the restore in a disposable instance.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update Uptime Kuma?

No. The template pins Uptime Kuma 2.5.0 by immutable digest, and a catalog re-sync affects new installations only — it never silently upgrades an existing site. Before upgrading, back up /app/data, review the release and migration notes, update the tag and digest together, recreate the container against the same volume, then verify login, monitor history, checks and notifications.

Does xCloud configure notifications for me?

No. Notification providers — email, Slack, Discord, webhooks and the rest — are configured inside Uptime Kuma with credentials you supply and manage. xCloud provisions the server and the app; the monitoring policy and alerting setup are yours.

Can Uptime Kuma monitor Docker containers?

Upstream Uptime Kuma supports Docker-container monitoring via the host's Docker socket, but this template intentionally excludes that: it does not expose the host Docker socket to the container. Use its HTTP, TCP, DNS, ping, WebSocket and certificate checks instead.

Can I use network storage like NFS for the data volume?

Not something this template supports or claims. Uptime Kuma's SQLite database relies on local POSIX file locking, which network filesystems such as NFS don't reliably provide — the persistent volume here is local storage on your server.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Uptime Kuma?

No. We claim no official partnership, endorsement or upstream support relationship. Uptime Kuma is free and open source under the MIT licence, and this is a deployment and server-management option for it, not a fork or an official offering.

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.
