Hosted in Germany • GDPR-ready

Bitwarden self hosted, without the DevOps tax.

Official Bitwarden self-hosting is heavy and expensive. We host Vaultwarden: the lightweight, Rust-based alternative that gives you premium Bitwarden features on a flat-rate server. No per-seat licenses. No complex Docker maintenance.

The Better Way

Why smart teams choose Vaultwarden for Bitwarden self hosted setups\n\nIf you have tried to follow the official Bitwarden self-hosting guide, you know the pain. It requires a massive Docker Compose file, a heavy Microsoft SQL Server instance, and at least 4GB of RAM just to start the engine. Even then, you are locked out of 'Premium' features like TOTP second-factor storage or emergency access unless you pay for an enterprise license key.\n\nVaultwarden changes the math. It is a community-driven implementation of the Bitwarden API written in Rust. It is built for performance and efficiency. It uses a fraction of the resources while giving you every single feature the Bitwarden apps support.\n\n### Everything is included\nWhen you run Vaultwarden on Opsily, you are not getting a 'lite' version. You get the full suite: shared organizations, collections, directory sync, and file attachments. You use the official Bitwarden mobile apps, browser extensions, and desktop clients. The only difference is the backend: it is faster, lighter, and entirely under your control on a private German server.

Managed Bitwarden self hosted excellence

We take the 'self' out of 'self-hosted' so you can focus on security, not server patches.

Blazing Rust Performance

Vaultwarden is written in Rust for extreme efficiency. While official Bitwarden crawls on small servers, our managed Vaultwarden instances remain snappy even with thousands of entries. You get sub-millisecond response times for every vault sync.

Hardened Security

Your vault is protected by automated SSL, daily encrypted backups, and a dedicated firewall. We manage the infrastructure security layers so your master password remains the only key that can ever decrypt your data. No Opsily employee has access to your vault.

Zero-Touch Maintenance

Security updates for Vaultwarden are released frequently. We handle the container updates and database migrations automatically. You never have to log into a terminal or debug a failing Docker pull. Your password manager stays current and secure.

Security you can verify

GDPR Compliant

All data is hosted on ISO 27001 certified data centers in Germany. Your data never leaves the EU jurisdiction.

End-to-End Encrypted

Vaultwarden uses the same encryption standards as Bitwarden. Only you hold the decryption keys.

Daily Off-site Backups

We perform daily encrypted backups of your database and attachments. Recovery is just one click away.

Dedicated Infrastructure

Bitwarden Self Hosted Questions

Migration is straightforward and takes less than five minutes. First, export your current vault from bitwarden.com or another manager as a JSON or CSV file. Then, log into your new Vaultwarden instance on Opsily and use the Import Data tool in the web vault. All your folders, logins, and notes will sync across immediately. You can then connect your mobile and browser apps to your new server URL.
