Hepsia v cPanel
cPanel is the most popular hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has lots of weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered imperfections by most people. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most critical 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 place.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel interfaces - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have one main domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia web hosting 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 certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Still, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive a myriad of charge-free extras.
With cPanel, the free extras you get depend on the web hosting plans provider, which suggests that you can also get a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that the Hepsia Control Panel is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel hosting Control Panel you can get the job done, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different web sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is not harder than managing 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting more than 10 web sites in a single cPanel web hosting account is really hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia 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 CP displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you invariably have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting CP features a full-fledged demo version with only a few functions disabled. You can even create a complete site and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to register.
The cPanel hosting CP features a stripped-down demo version, which will only offer you a rough idea of what the cPanel hosting CP can do.
This list can carry on and on. But rather than simply reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia CP a shot with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
