Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous hosting Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has plenty of flaws and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered weaknesses by most users. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most critical distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your site, domain and billing easily, from a one place.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel interfaces - one for your web site and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one principal domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting CP, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click contextual menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Nonetheless, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get tons of free bonuses.
With cPanel, the free extras you obtain depend on the hosting provider, which implies that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel web hosting Control Panel you can get the work done, it's built on ideas from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 separate sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is not harder than managing one or two websites.
Hosting 10+ websites under a single cPanel account is really tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia hosting CP lists just the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you always need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia offers a full-fledged demo version with just a few functions disabled. You can even create an entire web site and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to register.
The cPanel CP offers a bare-bones demo version, which will only offer you a rough idea of what the cPanel CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting Control Panel a shot with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
