ownCloud VPS hosting.

You pay one monthly price for the VPS, not a license per user. Packages scale by RAM, CPU and storage, and current prices are listed in the pricing section on this page; they can vary by location. The ownCloud software itself is open source, so the server is the main running cost. Cancel anytime: the cancellation takes effect at the end of your term.

• Billed per VPS, not per user
• Packages scale by RAM, CPU and storage
• Cancel anytime

Yes. Order a VPS, open One-Click Apps in the dashboard and deploy ownCloud with Coolify. The instance runs on your own KVM VPS with full root access, so you control accounts, storage and data location yourself and can add your own domain whenever you like.

• One-click deploy via Coolify
• Full root and SSH access
• Your data on your own server

It depends on the number of users, concurrent sync clients and files. A personal or family cloud runs well on an entry package; teams with many active desktop clients, large shares or external storage benefit from more RAM and CPU. Start with the package that fits today and move to a larger one from the dashboard when usage grows.

• Few users: entry package
• Many sync clients: more RAM and CPU
• Large file volumes: more storage

Once your VPS is online, open One-Click Apps in the dashboard, select ownCloud and start the deploy. Coolify pulls the official owncloud/server image (ownCloud Classic), starts the required services and shows the URL and admin credentials in its interface. With root access you can also install a different edition manually. One-Click Apps guide in the Help Center

• Official owncloud/server image
• Deploy from the One-Click Apps area
• URL and admin login shown in Coolify

Yes. Create an A record such as cloud.yourdomain.com that points to your VPS IP, then set that domain for the ownCloud app in Coolify and add it to the trusted domains. Coolify's proxy can then request a Let's Encrypt certificate, so your cloud is reachable over HTTPS. DNS record settings explained

• A record to your VPS IP
• Domain set in Coolify
• HTTPS via Let's Encrypt

VPS Backups and restores are managed in the dashboard and require a ZapX Pass; the number of Backup slots depends on your tier. With root access you can also back up the ownCloud data directory and database yourself, for example with rsync to a second server. How Backups work

• Backups and restore with ZapX Pass
• Slots depend on your Pass tier
• Own rsync Backups via root access

Both are open-source platforms for self-hosted file sync and share, and Nextcloud started as a fork of ownCloud. ownCloud Classic stays focused on files, sharing and external storage, while Nextcloud bundles more groupware such as calendar, chat and office apps. Both run as one-click apps on a ZAP-Hosting VPS, so pick the one whose feature set matches your workflow.

• ownCloud: focused on files and sharing
• Nextcloud: broader groupware bundle
• Both available as one-click apps
