Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous hosting Control Panel these days. But that does not imply that it is the best - it has many weaknesses and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered flaws by the majority of users. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most critical distinctions between the cPanel hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your website, domain name and billing easily, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel interfaces - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 principal domain 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 directly in 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 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain a multitude of free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the free extras you get depend on the hosting solutions provider, which means that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have demonstrated that the Hepsia web hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel hosting CP you can get the work done, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different web sites with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is not harder than managing 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting 10+ web sites under one single cPanel account is indeed hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting 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.
cPanel lists all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you invariably need to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia CP offers a full-fledged demo version with only a couple of functions disabled. You can even create an entire website and check how it looks like before choosing whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel hosting CP offers a stripped-down demo version, which will only give you a vague idea of what the cPanel hosting Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than merely reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting Control Panel a shot with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
