What SrvYard is and how it works
SrvYard connects to your Ubuntu servers over SSH and lets you create sites, deploy code, manage databases, certificates, backups and teams from one dashboard, without writing the shell scripts yourself.
Step 2Deploy your first site in ten minutes
From a ready server to a Laravel site answering on its own address: create the site, deploy it, read the log and check it is live. The shortest path through SrvYard.
Step 3Create your account, verify your e-mail and set up two-factor
Register with a social account or an email address, confirm your address, create your first organisation, and protect the account with two-factor authentication and a passkey.

Frequently asked
Short answers
What is SrvYard?
SrvYard is a control panel for servers you run yourself. It logs in over SSH and installs the software, then lets you manage sites, deployments, databases, certificates, backups and monitoring from a browser. Your sites keep running on your own machines. See What SrvYard is and how it works.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Hobby is free and includes 1 server, 3 sites and 100 deployments a month. Pro and Business raise those limits and switch on the API, webhooks, backups and monitoring. Business adds teams and AI explanations (a web terminal is planned for Business but is not available yet). Compare them in Compare plans and know your limits.
Which servers can I use?
Any fresh Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or 26.04 LTS machine that gives you root over SSH, or one that SrvYard creates for you at DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Akamai (Linode), Vultr, AWS or Proxmox. See Connect an existing server and Provision a server at a cloud provider.
How long does it take to get a first site online?
About ten minutes once you have a ready server. You create the site, run its first deployment and open it on a free srvy.sh address, so you need no domain or DNS to start. Follow Deploy your first site in ten minutes.
Can I move over from Forge or another panel?
Yes. SrvYard can read Laravel Forge, Ploi or VitoDeploy with a read-only token and turn what it finds into drafts, then scan and adopt the real server. Nothing is changed in the old panel or on any server. See Migrate from Laravel Forge, Ploi or VitoDeploy.
Where do I get help?
Search these docs first, then ask the support chat, and open a support ticket when you need a person to look at your problem. All three are free for every account. Never paste passwords, tokens or private keys into a chat or ticket. See Get help.
Can I host a Python, Ruby or Go site?
Not as a supported site type. SrvYard manages PHP, Node.js (Next.js and Nuxt.js) and static sites. The Other site type lets you set your own web directory and deploy script, but installing the language and wiring it up is your own work. See What SrvYard supports.
Do you support Docker or Kubernetes?
No. SrvYard runs sites directly on the server with Nginx, PHP-FPM or Node, and does not deploy or manage containers. If your app needs Docker, install and run it yourself on the server; see What SrvYard supports for the list.
