What is SFTPGo?
Run SFTPGo on your own VPS in one click.
SFTPGo gives your team, clients and scripts one secure place to exchange files: partners upload over SFTP, colleagues drag and drop in the browser WebClient, and everything lands on local disk or S3-compatible storage. It is a full-featured, open-source SFTP server with a WebAdmin for users, groups and quotas. With SFTPGo hosting at ZAP-Hosting, it runs on your own KVM VPS, deployed in one click from the Coolify app marketplace in One-Click Apps.
Unlike a hosted SFTP service billed per user, your own VPS gives you root access to the whole machine. You decide which protocols are exposed, where the data lives, how many accounts you create and which other apps share the server. Need to read logs, adjust the firewall or move data with rsync? Connect via SSH and do it, while Coolify keeps the SFTPGo container easy to redeploy and update.
SFTPGo features
Everything your file exchange needs in one SFTP server
Encrypted SFTP and browser uploads, S3-backed folders and per-user quotas, all configured from the SFTPGo WebAdmin on your own VPS.
S3-compatible storage backends
Users see a normal SFTP folder while their files land in your cloud bucket.
SFTP, FTP/S and WebDAV access
Partners, scripts and browsers send files encrypted, using the client they already know.
Users, groups and OpenID Connect
Every client gets an isolated account, and staff sign in with your identity provider.
Event-driven automation
Uploads trigger webhooks, scripts or emails, so nobody has to watch the inbox.
Per-user quotas and virtual folders
Each customer stays within their storage share, and usage is visible at a glance.
Brute-force defender and key logins
Attackers are blocked after failed logins, while users sign in with SSH keys or 2FA.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Sftpgo
Answers to the most important questions before you start.
You pay only for the VPS package you choose. The packages are scaled by RAM, CPU and storage, and the current monthly prices are shown live in the package selection on this page. The open-source SFTPGo edition itself has no license fee, and there are no per-user charges for the accounts you create.
- Price depends on VPS package, term and location, not user count
- SFTPGo community edition at no extra cost
- Cancel anytime
Yes. SFTPGo is an open-source SFTP server, and the community edition deployed via Coolify is free to use. If you are looking for a free SFTP server that you fully control, this is it: your VPS package covers the server, and SFTPGo runs on it at no extra cost.
- Open-source code, maintained by the SFTPGo authors
- No license fee on top of your VPS
- Full control over data and configuration
Order a VPS, open One-Click Apps in your dashboard and deploy SFTPGo from the Coolify app marketplace. Once the service is running, open the WebAdmin in your browser, create the first admin account, then add users, folders and storage backends. Read the One-Click Apps guide
- Order a VPS package
- Deploy SFTPGo in One-Click Apps
- Create the first admin in the WebAdmin
- Add users, groups and storage
SFTPGo itself is lightweight, so storage and parallel transfers usually decide the package. A smaller package covers a handful of users and partners. Choose more storage for large archives, or more CPU and RAM for many simultaneous encrypted sessions. If your files live on S3-compatible storage, local disk size matters less.
- Storage: size of the files you keep on the VPS
- CPU and RAM: number of parallel transfers
- Packages scale by RAM, CPU and storage
Yes. Each user or virtual folder can use its own backend: local disk, encrypted local storage, S3-compatible object storage, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage or another SFTP server. That makes SFTPGo a simple SFTP to S3 gateway: partners upload over SFTP, and the files land directly in your bucket.
- S3-compatible object storage
- Google Cloud Storage and Azure Blob
- Encrypted local storage on the VPS
Yes. With ZapX Pass you can create manual Backups of your VPS in the dashboard and restore them when needed. For the transferred files themselves, many admins also keep data on S3-compatible storage or copy it to another location with rsync. Learn more about Backups

- Copy data off the server with rsync
SFTPGo serves SFTP and SCP over SSH, FTP and FTP/S, WebDAV and HTTPS for the WebAdmin and WebClient. Each service listens on its own port, separate from the VPS's system SSH, so both run side by side. You find the exposed ports in the Coolify service settings; in the firewall, open only the ones you use. For business transfers, encrypted SFTP or FTP/S is the safer choice over plain FTP.
- SFTP and SCP over SSH
- FTP/S and WebDAV
- WebAdmin and WebClient over HTTPS
Your SFTPGo VPS can run in any of our VPS locations in Europe and America. Choose the one closest to the people and systems that upload most often, because that keeps transfer times short. Teams in North America often start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles. Hardware and network details can vary by location.

Why can't my partner connect to SFTPGo via SFTP?
Check that SFTPGo's SFTP port is exposed in the Coolify service and allowed in the VPS firewall. Then confirm the user is enabled and SFTP isn't denied for that account. I can walk you through each check.
