Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous hosting Control Panel out there. But that does not imply that it is the best - it has a lot of faults and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered flaws by most people. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most essential differences between the cPanel hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your site, domain name and billing easily, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel interfaces - one for your website and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate 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 CP, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click contextual menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Still, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get a myriad of free-of-cost extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-charge bonuses you obtain depend on the web hosting provider, which implies that you can also receive a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that the Hepsia Control Panel is three to five times faster than the cPanel hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel CP you do your job, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten separate websites with Hepsia is as difficult as administering 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting more than 10 websites under one single cPanel web hosting account is indeed hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
the cPanel web hosting CP shows all available icons on the home page. To navigate between sections, you constantly have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel offers a fully fledged demo version with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up an entire web site and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to sign up.
cPanel offers a bare-bones demo version, which will only offer you a crude idea of what the cPanel hosting CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than merely reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel a shot with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
