Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular web hosting Control Panel out there. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has lots of imperfections and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered imperfections by most people. But just because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK 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 website, domain and billing easily, from a one location.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel tools - one for your website and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 main domain name 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 right into 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. In spite of that, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive a lot of free-of-cost extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-cost bonuses you get depend on the web hosting accounts provider, which suggests that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that the Hepsia web hosting CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel web 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
Administering ten separate web sites with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is as difficult as managing one or two websites.
Hosting more than 10 sites under one single cPanel account is indeed difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia Control Panel 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 hosting CP displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you always have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia CP offers a full-fledged demo account with only a few functions disabled. You can even set up a whole website and see how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel web hosting Control Panel features a stripped-down demo version, which will only offer you a crude idea of what the cPanel hosting CP can do.
This list can carry on and on. But instead of merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia CP a shot with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy hosting can be?
