Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used web hosting Control Panel today. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has many flaws and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered faults by the majority of people. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be OK now.
Here are the most essential differences between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain name and billing easily, from a one place.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel tools - one for your site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own independent 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 website hosting CP, you can take advantage of drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click contextual menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Nonetheless, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive numerous charge-free bonuses.
With cPanel, the free-of-charge extras you get depend on the web hosting plans provider, which implies that you can also receive a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel is three to five times faster than the cPanel hosting CP.
While with the cPanel you can get the job done, it's built on ideas from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different websites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as managing one or two web sites.
Hosting more than ten web sites under a single cPanel hosting account is really difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia CP lists only the most essential 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 invariably have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia offers a full-fledged demo version with just a few functions disabled. You can even build an entire web site and see how it looks like before deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel web hosting CP features a bare-bones demo version, which will only offer you a crude idea of what the cPanel CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of simply reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting CP a whirl with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
