Self-hosting

Your software. Your server. Same product.

Every 399apps product ships as a clean self-hosted package. Run it on your laptop, your VPS, your bare-metal — same code, same support.

Why self-host with 399apps

Built for the engineers who would have built it themselves.

We took the things engineers care about — clean Docker images, sane configs, backup tooling, version pinning — and made them defaults.

Full data ownership

Your DB, your backups, your encryption keys. Nothing phones home.

Docker-first deploys

docker compose up and you are live. Bare-metal binaries available on Scale plans.

Predictable upgrades

Versioned releases, migration scripts, rollback playbook.

Managed support, opt-in

We can run it for you — backups, upgrades, on-call — for a monthly fee.

How it works

From licence to live, in four steps.

  1. 01

    Pick your plan

    Choose the app and tier (Starter / Growth / Scale). We send you a yearly licence and the deployment package.

  2. 02

    Provision your server

    A small Ubuntu / Debian box is enough to start. We send you a hardware-sizing guide for your scale.

  3. 03

    Deploy & configure

    docker compose up, point your domain, set the admin email. White-label theming applies at config time.

  4. 04

    Go live

    Onboard users, import data (we provide importers), and ship. We are an email away for the term of your licence.

FAQ

Self-hosting — FAQs

What does the self-hosted licence include? +
A yearly licence per server, version updates for the term, security patches, email support and optional managed support add-on. The product is identical to the cloud version.
What infrastructure do I need? +
A Linux server (Ubuntu / Debian / RHEL) with 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM and 40 GB SSD is enough for most launches. Postgres 14+ and a domain you control.
Can you deploy it for me? +
Yes — we offer a one-time setup service and a monthly managed-support tier where we run upgrades, backups and on-call for you.
Do I get source access? +
On Scale plans, yes. You get access to the source tree under a customer-only licence so you can audit, patch and extend.
Will my data leave the server? +
No. Self-host means your data stays on your server. Optional anonymous product telemetry can be disabled.
