Hepsia v cPanel
cPanel is the most popular Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has many faults and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered weaknesses by most people. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most essential differences between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain and billing easily, from a one place.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panels - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name 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 web hosting CP, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click contextual menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Nevertheless, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get loads of free-of-cost extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-charge extras you get depend on the web hosting packages provider, which implies that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel web hosting Control Panel.
While with the cPanel 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
Administering 10 separate web sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as administering 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting more than 10 websites in one single cPanel web hosting 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.
cPanel displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you constantly need to return there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia offers a fully fledged demo account with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a complete site and see how it looks like before deciding whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel web hosting CP offers a bare-bones demo, which will only offer you a basic idea of what the cPanel web hosting CP 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 see for yourself how easy hosting can be?
