Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous hosting Control Panel today. 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 only because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most crucial distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain and billing with ease, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel tools - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one principal domain folder and all other add-on domain names are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you can take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. However, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain a plethora of charge-free bonuses.
With cPanel, the free extras you get depend on the hosting provider, which suggests that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia web hosting CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel hosting CP you can get the job done, it's based on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten separate websites with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is not harder than administering one or two websites.
Hosting more than 10 sites under one single cPanel account is really tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia CP lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
the cPanel web hosting Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you constantly have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia web hosting CP features a full-fledged demo account with only several functions disabled. You can even set up a whole site and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to register.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel offers a bare-bones demo, which will only give you a vague idea of what the Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than simply reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting Control Panel a whirl with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy hosting can be?
