Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous web hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not imply that it is the finest - it has a lot of weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer regarded as flaws by most users. 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 important distinctions between the cPanel hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain name and billing easily, from a a single place.
With cPanel, you have two separate Control Panel tools - one for your 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 1 main domain 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 context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Nonetheless, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain a plethora of free extras.
With cPanel, the free bonuses you get depend on the web hosting solutions provider, which means that you can also receive a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have demonstrated that the Hepsia Control Panel is three to five times faster than cPanel.
While with the The cPanel Control Panel you can get the job done, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering ten different sites with the Hepsia CP is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 web sites.
Hosting 10+ web sites in a single cPanel hosting account is indeed tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia Control Panel lists just the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
The cPanel CP shows all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you always need to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel offers a full-fledged demo version with only a few functions disabled. You can even create a complete website and see how it looks like before choosing whether or not to register.
The cPanel web hosting Control Panel offers a bare-bones demo version, which will only give you a basic idea of what the cPanel hosting CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of merely reading about these hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia Control Panel a shot with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
