Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used web hosting Control Panel out there. But that does not imply that it is the best - it has lots of imperfections and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered faults by the majority of people. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay nowadays.
Here are the most critical differences between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing with ease, from a a single place.
With cPanel, you have two separate Control Panels - one for your website and another one for your billing transactions and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 main domain name folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia CP, you can take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions 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 functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain a myriad of cost-free extras.
With cPanel, the free bonuses you get depend on the hosting packages 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 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel hosting CP you do your job, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering ten separate web sites with the Hepsia CP is not harder than administering one or two web sites.
Hosting more than ten websites under a single cPanel hosting account is indeed difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia 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 CP lists all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you constantly need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting CP offers a full-fledged demo version with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a complete site and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel Control Panel features a stripped-down demo version, which will only give you a crude idea of what the cPanel web hosting Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of merely reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting Control Panel a go with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
