300+ One-Click Apps Now Available on Dedimax VPS

If you've ever provisioned a fresh VPS and spent the next two hours installing Docker, pulling images, writing a docker-compose file, configuring a reverse proxy, and finally getting your app to respond on port 443, you'll appreciate what we just added to the panel.

Starting this week, every Dedimax VPS can deploy more than 300 self-hosted applications in one click. Select the app, pick the server, click deploy. The app is up, pre-configured, and reachable within minutes. No SSH, no YAML, no "wait, which env var sets the admin password again."

This isn't a replacement for custom setups. If you're deploying a bespoke stack that needs 15 containers wired together, you'll still SSH in and write your own compose files. What this is: a shortcut for the 90% of self-hosting use cases where you want a specific app running, correctly, as fast as possible. Vaultwarden for your password manager. n8n for your workflows. Jellyfin for your media. Uptime Kuma for your monitoring. The common stack of self-hosted software, available in one click from the panel.

Here's what's in the catalogue, organized by what you'd actually use it for.

AI & LLM tools

The AI self-hosting space has exploded over the past 18 months, and most of what's useful is now one click away. Hermes Agent is the headline pick for most users: an autonomous AI agent with persistent memory, scheduling, and a self-hosted web chat UI. It runs comfortably on a standard VPS because it calls external model APIs rather than running inference locally. OpenClaw covers the same angle for AI assistants that connect to WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord and Slack. Flowise and Langflow for building LLM orchestration flows visually. AnythingLLM for RAG, agents, and document chat without infrastructure headaches. Plus LibreChat, LobeChat, LiteLLM, Langfuse, MetaMCP, and a dozen others covering vector stores (Qdrant, Weaviate, Chroma), transcription (Faster Whisper), and TTS (Piper).

If you specifically want to run model inference on your own hardware, Ollama + Open WebUI is available too. It's resource-hungry (16 GB RAM minimum for usable 7-8B models on CPU, more for faster inference), so size your VPS accordingly.

Automation & workflows

The Zapier-replacement category is particularly strong. n8n is the headline act (we've covered the self-hosting setup in detail), joined by Activepieces for no-code business automation, Windmill for production-grade workflows, Appsmith and Budibase for internal tools, and Lowcoder for internal apps. Inngest and Hatchet cover the background job queue angle. Prefect handles data pipeline orchestration. For developers who need to connect APIs together, there are more options here than in most hosted platforms.

Databases & search

Beyond the standard PostgreSQL and MySQL (which deploy as part of most app stacks), the catalogue covers specialized data stores: MinIO for S3-compatible object storage, Qdrant and Weaviate for vector databases, Meilisearch and Typesense for full-text search, Elasticsearch when you need the full ELK experience, InfluxDB for time-series data, and NocoDB when you want an Airtable-like UI on top of your database. Admin interfaces like pgAdmin, phpMyAdmin, and CloudBeaver are one-click deployments too.

Collaboration & communication

Mattermost and Rocket.Chat are the main Slack alternatives in the list. Matrix Synapse for federated chat. Jitsi for video conferencing without the Zoom bill. NodeBB and Discourse-adjacent forums. ONCE Campfire from 37signals for simple group chat. Chatwoot when you need customer-facing chat with ticketing. For communities that outgrew Discord's restrictions, the full stack is available without touching a config file.

Project management & productivity

Maybe the deepest category in the catalogue. Plane as a Jira alternative, Vikunja for personal task management, Leantime for goal-focused teams, Twenty for CRM, Redmine for the Trac-era faithful. On the docs side: Outline, Docmost, BookStack, Wiki.js, DokuWiki, AppFlowy, AFFiNE, SiYuan, SilverBullet, Trilium Notes. Pick the one that matches your mental model of knowledge management; whichever you pick, it deploys in one click.

File storage & sharing

Nextcloud for the full-featured suite. Seafile for lighter file sync. Immich for photos and videos, with mobile backup. PhotoPrism as an alternative photo manager. Pingvin Share for WeTransfer-style one-off sharing. Pydio Cells for larger team deployments. Syncthing for peer-to-peer sync. On the object storage side: MinIO, Garage, SeaweedFS, RustFS. All one click, HTTPS already handled.

Media & entertainment

If you self-host media, the standard stack is all here: Jellyfin and Plex for the server, Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Bazarr and Prowlarr for the arr-stack management, qBittorrent and Transmission for the download clients, Jellyseerr and Overseerr for request management, Audiobookshelf for audiobooks and podcasts, Navidrome for Subsonic-compatible music streaming, Castopod for hosting your own podcast. MeTube for downloading from YouTube and similar sites.

Game servers

Because Dedimax VPS plans include unlimited bandwidth (which matters a lot for game servers), the one-click gaming lineup is deliberately strong. Minecraft (any version, auto-downloaded on start), FiveM for GTA V roleplay, Valheim for viking survival with up to 10 players, Satisfactory for factory-building, Project Zomboid for zombie survival, Enshrouded for co-op RPG, Terraria, Factorio, Foundry VTT for tabletop. Plus Pterodactyl Panel if you want to manage multiple game servers from a web UI.

Monitoring & analytics

Uptime Kuma for the uptime side (the one we specifically recommend running on a separate server from what it monitors). Grafana for dashboards. Beszel for lightweight server resource monitoring. Glances and Dozzle for quick visibility into system and container state. OpenObserve as a cheaper alternative to Elasticsearch/Splunk for logs. On the web analytics side: Matomo, Plausible, Umami, Rybbit, GoatCounter, Swetrix, PostHog. Every one of them a privacy-respecting alternative to Google Analytics, each deployable in one click.

Security & password managers

Vaultwarden for Bitwarden-compatible password management (the single most popular self-hosting win in the community). Authentik and Keycloak for SSO and identity management. Logto, Pocket ID, SuperTokens for authentication solutions. Passbolt for team password management. Infisical and Vault for secret management. OneTimeSecret and Cryptgeon for self-destructing sensitive shares. The complete access and secrets stack, pre-configured.

CMS, websites & developer tools

The classics: WordPress, Ghost, Drupal, Joomla, ClassicPress. For developers: Code-server for browser-based VS Code, Gitea and Forgejo as lightweight Git forges, GitLab when you need the full DevOps platform, Jenkins for CI/CD, Portainer for Docker management, SonarQube for code quality. Plus Strapi and Directus as headless CMS options, PocketBase as an all-in-one backend, and Convex as an open-source reactive database platform.

And beyond

The 10 categories above cover roughly half of what's in the catalogue. The rest spans more specialized territory: VPN tooling (WireGuard Easy, OpenVPN Access Server, NetBird, Cloudflared), DNS ad-blocking (Pi-hole, AdGuard Home), e-commerce and billing (Odoo, Invoice Ninja, Cal.com, Paymenter), personal finance (Firefly III, Actual Budget, Maybe), home organization (Grocy, Homebox, Mealie, Baby Buddy), newsletter and email (Listmonk, Stalwart, Plunk, useSend), smart home (ESPHome, Mosquitto), file conversion (ConvertX, Stirling-PDF, Gotenberg), and a long tail of niche tools that each solve one specific problem well.

How it works

The flow is intentionally boring: open your panel, pick a VPS, click "Deploy app", select from the catalogue, confirm. The app installs with Docker under the hood, orchestrated through our standard compose templates. Each app's deployment surface mentions its minimum RAM and vCPU requirements upfront, so you'll know before clicking whether your VPS can handle it.

For HTTPS exposure, Traefik sits in front of every deployed app as the reverse proxy. Point a subdomain at your VPS, and Traefik automatically requests a Let's Encrypt certificate, routes traffic to the right container, and handles WebSocket upgrades for apps that need them. No Nginx config to write, no certbot renewal cron to maintain, no "WebSocket headers forgotten in the proxy block" debugging session.

For apps that need persistent storage, data volumes are created in a predictable location so your backups capture them automatically.

Nothing stops you from SSH-ing in afterwards and customizing further. The one-click deployment is a starting point, not a cage. Edit the compose files, add containers, swap configs, add Traefik labels for your own services alongside the deployed app. The panel tracks what it deployed but doesn't fight you if you take over manual management of the stack.

Who this is for

If you're a sysadmin who could write every deployment config from memory, this probably doesn't change your workflow. You'll still SSH, you'll still prefer your own templates. That's fine, the panel doesn't force anything.

Where it changes things: small businesses that want to self-host their password manager and project management without hiring an ops person. Agencies that provision a new VPS per client and want to standardize the initial stack. Developers who want to spin up Postgres + Redis + a monitoring stack for a weekend project without burning the weekend on infrastructure. Home-lab enthusiasts who want to try six photo managers over a weekend to pick the one they like.

The common thread: the time between "I want to try this" and "it's running on my server" shrinks from hours to minutes.

Where to find the full list

The complete catalogue of 300+ apps is browseable from the panel under the "Deploy app" section of any VPS. New apps are added continuously, both from popular community requests and from the broader self-hosting ecosystem as projects mature. If an app you'd want isn't there, our support can either add it to the catalogue for everyone.

Head to your panel to browse the full catalogue. The feature is available on every VPS tier starting at 9.99€/month, with no setup fees and no commitment.
