Migration guide →Team migration plan · Codeanywhere July 2026
Codeanywhere shuts down July 1. Here is your week-by-week plan.
Whether you are moving a solo workflow or migrating a team, this page gives you a structured four-week plan to get everything exported, tested, and running in a new workspace before the July 1 deadline.
Four-week migration plan
Week 1
Inventory and assess
- List every Codeanywhere workspace your team uses
- Identify which contain unique files not in version control
- Document all server connections and credentials stored in Codeanywhere
- Assign ownership — who is responsible for exporting each workspace
Week 2
Export everything
- Push all uncommitted code to remote Git repositories
- Download non-versioned files via SFTP or the Codeanywhere file manager
- Export all .env and config files from each workspace
- Copy SSH private keys to a local keychain or password manager
- Take SQL dumps of any databases accessible from the workspace
Week 3
Test your new tool
- Create a free account in your chosen replacement (ServerDesk if managing SSH servers)
- Add one or two server connections and verify SSH authentication works
- Open a terminal, browse files, and test the editor
- Run a basic deployment or script to confirm the workflow
- Share access instructions with your team
Week 4
Complete the move
- Move all remaining server connections to the new tool
- Update team bookmarks, runbooks, and internal documentation
- Cancel or downgrade your Codeanywhere plan to avoid post-shutdown charges
- Verify all team members can access what they need in the new tool
- Delete or archive any Codeanywhere workspaces you no longer need

AI reads from your actual server. Explains errors in context, helps with config and logs.
Flat monthly pricing

Frequently asked questions
- Is the Codeanywhere shutdown definitely July 1, 2026?
- Yes. Codeanywhere has confirmed the shutdown date as July 1, 2026. The export deadline — last day to access and download files — is June 30, 2026. Plan around those dates and do not wait for extensions.
- What if my team is still using Codeanywhere on July 1?
- Access ends on July 1. If your team has not migrated by then, you will lose access to any files, credentials, and server connections still stored in Codeanywhere. Start the move now.
- How much does it cost to switch to ServerDesk?
- The free plan is available at no cost and includes one server connection with terminal, file browsing, and editor. Paid plans start from a flat monthly rate. Use code CODEANYWHERE at checkout for 50% off the first 3 months — valid until July 1, 2026.
- Can multiple team members use ServerDesk?
- Yes, in the practical sense that multiple people can work against the same infrastructure from their own accounts. Today, ServerDesk is strongest for connection-heavy agency workflows rather than fully built-out shared permissions and RBAC.
- How do I migrate a database that was on a Codeanywhere DevBox?
- Export a SQL dump from the Codeanywhere terminal using mysqldump or pg_dump, then import it to your new server. If the database was on a Codeanywhere DevBox rather than an external server, you will need to provision a new database server and import the dump.
- What do we need to do about Codeanywhere billing?
- Cancel your Codeanywhere subscription before July 1, 2026. Codeanywhere may continue billing until you explicitly cancel — do not assume that the shutdown will trigger automatic cancellation.
- Is there a ServerDesk trial before committing to a paid plan?
- Yes — the free plan is permanent, not a trial. You can use it indefinitely with one server connection. Upgrade when you need more connections, AI assistance, or higher-volume operational features.
