Home / App Hosting & PaaS / CapRover

CapRover — open source alternative

Free, self-hosted PaaS with a clean UI.

Strengths

  • One-command install on any Ubuntu/Debian box.
  • Web UI for managing apps, volumes and domains.
  • Strong one-click app library (databases, etc.).

Weaknesses

  • Docker Swarm under the hood — not Kubernetes.
  • Smaller team behind it.
  • Scaling across many nodes is limited.
