Deploy the self-hosted web file manager in one click, with full root access, DDoS protection and locations in Europe and America.
American ExpressWhat Filebrowser does
Filebrowser turns a folder on a server into a clean web file manager: open any browser to upload, download, rename, preview and share your files, without a sync client or a third-party cloud. With Filebrowser hosting at ZAP-Hosting, that interface runs on your own VPS and is deployed in one click from the Coolify marketplace, so there is no docker compose file to write and no reverse proxy to wire up by hand.
Because the VPS is yours, you decide what Filebrowser can see and who gets in. Root access and SSH let you point it at any directory, move data in with rsync or SFTP, keep the admin login behind your firewall and attach your own domain with HTTPS. When you need more than a file manager, add Syncthing, Immich or Vaultwarden as further Coolify apps on the same server.

FAQ
Answers to the most important questions before you start.
Order a VPS, open One-Click Apps in your dashboard and pick Filebrowser from the Coolify marketplace. One click starts the deployment, and shortly afterwards the web UI is reachable and you sign in with the initial admin account. You don't need a docker compose file or a manual reverse proxy setup. Step-by-step guide in the Help Center
Filebrowser itself needs very little CPU and RAM, so the smallest package runs it comfortably. Choose mainly by disk space: how many photos, documents and archives you want to keep. Current prices for all packages load live in the configurator, and you can move to a larger package later as your files grow.
Change the initial admin password right after your first login. Then use the firewall to expose only what you need, serve Filebrowser over HTTPS on your own domain and give each user only the folders and permissions they need. Keep the operating system and the app container up to date through Coolify. Firewall guide in the Help Center
Yes. Point an A record of your domain or subdomain, for example files.example.com, to your VPS IP and add the domain to the Filebrowser app in Coolify. Coolify's built-in proxy routes the traffic and can request a free Let's Encrypt certificate, so your file manager runs on HTTPS.
Yes. With ZapX Pass you can create VPS Backups in your ZAP-Hosting dashboard, restore them and download them. On top of that, root access lets you copy your Filebrowser data to another server or storage with rsync, restic or any tool you prefer. Backup guide in the Help Center
Yes. Filebrowser is open-source software under the Apache 2.0 license, so there are no license fees or per-user costs. You only pay for the VPS it runs on, and the same server can host further Coolify apps such as Nextcloud, Syncthing or Immich, as long as resources allow.
ZAP-Hosting offers VPS locations in Europe and America. Pick the data center closest to you and the people who open your files, because that gives them the fastest page loads and transfers. Many North American users start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles. The configurator shows which locations are available for each package.
Yes, you can cancel anytime in your dashboard. You choose a term when ordering, and a cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term. Until then your VPS and your Filebrowser data stay available, so you have time to download everything you need.
