Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used web hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has many 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 okay in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most essential differences between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing very easy, from a one single place.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel tools - one for your website and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 main domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting CP, you can take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Yet, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive tons of cost-free bonuses.
With cPanel, the free-of-cost extras you obtain depend on the hosting plans provider, which means that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel CP you do your job, it's built on ideas from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as administering 1 or 2 web sites.
Hosting 10+ websites under a single cPanel account is indeed difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel lists only the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel Control Panel displays all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you constantly have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel features a fully fledged demo account with only a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a complete site and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel Control Panel features a bare-bones demo, which will only give you a basic idea of what the Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But instead of merely reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel a whirl with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy hosting can be?
