Dokploy Pricing, Features & Alternatives
Applications, databases, and Docker Compose services across self-hosted servers or a managed cloud service.
Dokploy is an open-source, self-hosted platform-as-a-service that simplifies the deployment and management of applications. It provides a web-based interface for deploying Docker and Docker Compose projects, managing databases, and handling SSL certificates. With features like Git integration, automatic updates, and monitoring, Dokploy offers developers the flexibility of running their own infrastructure with the usability of a managed PaaS. Zero-downtime deployment requires the documented health-check and start-first configuration; the default deployment can interrupt service. Rollback depends on retained images and configuration, previews use a supported Git provider, and named-volume backups require a configured schedule and destination.
Best for
Developers, agencies, and small platform teams that want a modern Heroku-style interface for deploying containers, applications, databases, and Docker Compose stacks on infrastructure they control.
Watch out for
Dokploy simplifies deployment but does not remove responsibility for server security, operating-system maintenance, backups, capacity planning, availability, networking, and incident response.

Infrastructure & Availability
Where workloads run, how deployment is scoped, and what underlying infrastructure the platform depends on.
Managed BYOC
Dokploy Cloud manages the control plane, while applications and databases continue to run on customer-connected servers. Workload geography therefore follows the customer deployment servers rather than a Dokploy-operated workload-region catalog.
Deployment model
- Managed BYOC
Infrastructure providers
- Amazon Web Services
- Microsoft Azure
- DigitalOcean
- Google Cloud Platform
- Any compatible Linux server or VPS with Docker and SSH access
Self-hosted
Self-hosted Dokploy runs the control plane on customer infrastructure and deploys workloads to customer-connected servers. Geography follows those servers.
Deployment model
- Self-hosted
Infrastructure providers
- Customer-managed infrastructure

FAQ
What is the difference between Dokploy Remote Servers and Swarm Nodes?
Remote Servers are independent machines that Dokploy manages over SSH and do not join one shared cluster. Swarm Nodes join the Dokploy server’s Docker Swarm so replicas of the same application can run across multiple machines with load balancing.
Is Dokploy free?
Yes, when self-hosted. Dokploy can be run without a software charge on infrastructure you manage; server and operational costs remain your responsibility.
