Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has plenty of faults and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered weaknesses by most people. But just because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most crucial differences between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain name and billing very easy, from a one single place.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panels - one for your website and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 main domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia Control Panel, you can take advantage of drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. In spite of that, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain a lot of cost-free bonuses.
With cPanel, the free-of-cost extras you receive depend on the web hosting provider, which implies that you can also receive a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel hosting CP.
While with the cPanel you can get the work done, it's built on ideas from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten different web sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is not harder than managing one or two web sites.
Hosting 10+ websites under a single cPanel hosting account is really difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP lists only the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel Control Panel displays all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you constantly have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel offers a full-fledged demo version with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a whole web site and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel web hosting Control Panel offers a bare-bones demo, which will only offer you a basic idea of what the cPanel Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But instead of merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting CP a try with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy hosting can be?
