Run Syncthing on an always-on VPS so your laptop, phone, and home server stay in sync even when half your devices are offline. Lighter than Nextcloud — perfect when you just need files synced peer-to-peer. Built for Self-hosters, developers, photographers, privacy users.
Every syncthing plan includes free DDoS protection, full root access, IPv6 networking, daily snapshots, and 24/7 human support.
Order, wait 30 seconds for deploy, log in — your stack is running.
Your home machines turn off; the VPS keeps the sync chain alive. Phone uploads photos at 3 AM — they're on your laptop by morning.
Files encrypted with per-folder keys before they leave any device. The VPS sees ciphertext.
Mark folders 'send only' so the VPS receives but never sends — perfect for backups.
Standard Syncthing admin UI on port 8384, behind HTTPS and HTTP basic auth.
Trash deleted files for 30 days. Keep up to 10 versions of every file. Real undo, not just delete.
Acts as a Syncthing global announce / relay — your other devices find each other through it.
Run Syncthing on an always-on VPS so your laptop, phone, and home server stay in sync even when half your devices are offline. Lighter than Nextcloud — perfect when you just need files synced peer-to-peer.
You could install syncthing/syncthing official image on a generic $5 VPS. Most people who try spend an evening on the install, another on hardening, another on backups, and then it falls over the first time the kernel updates. We've done that work — every syncthing plan is tuned, monitored, and updateable in one click.
No black boxes — here's the exact software shipped on every Syncthing VPS plan.
The Syncthing VPS image ships with: syncthing/syncthing official image. We don't fork or patch — we use the official upstream releases, with sensible defaults for our hardware. Update on your schedule, not ours.
Everything runs in containers via Docker, so updates are atomic. If a release breaks something, roll back to the previous image in 30 seconds. No 'I broke prod by running apt upgrade' moments.
The same KVM hypervisor and enterprise NVMe drives we use across every OliveVPS region.
Pick from 20+ datacenter regions worldwide. Syncthing VPS VPS pricing stays the same in every region — the hardware specs, the bandwidth allowance, the SSD speed. The only thing that changes is your latency to end users.
Syncthing is peer-to-peer — every device has every file. Nextcloud is client-server — clients pull from a central store. Syncthing wins for simple multi-device sync; Nextcloud wins when you also need calendar, contacts, office docs, sharing links.
Depends on your config. By default, the VPS holds plaintext (so it can act as a normal sync peer). Enable 'Encrypted Folder' on a peer and the VPS only sees ciphertext.
Sum the largest folder you're syncing + 50% overhead for versions and pending changes. 100 GB plan = ~60 GB usable. 500 GB plan = ~330 GB usable.
Yes — each user adds the VPS as a device, with separate folder shares. The web UI is per-VPS though, so users see each other's folder list (folder contents stay private via per-folder pairing).
Order in 60 seconds. Server live in 30. No setup fees, 7-day money-back guarantee.
