Hepsia vs cPanel
cPanel is the most popular hosting Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has lots of weaknesses and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered imperfections by most people. But only 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 administer your site, domain and billing easily, from a one place.
With cPanel, you have two separate Control Panel tools - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one principal domain name folder and all other add-on domain names are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, 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. Still, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain many free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the charge-free extras you receive depend on the hosting solutions provider, which implies that you can also get a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel is three to five times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel hosting Control Panel you can get the job done, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten separate sites with the Hepsia hosting CP is not harder than managing one or two web sites.
Hosting more than 10 web sites under one single cPanel account is really difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia Control Panel 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 hosting CP shows all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you constantly need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia features a full-fledged demo version with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even create a whole website and check how it looks like before choosing whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel offers a stripped-down demo version, which will only give you a crude idea of what the cPanel hosting Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than simply reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia Control Panel a whirl with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy hosting can be?
