Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has plenty of imperfections and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer regarded as weaknesses by most users. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be OK now.
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 administer your website, domain name and billing with ease, from a one single place.
With cPanel, you have 2 separate Control Panel tools - one for your web site and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
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 web hosting CP, 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 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 myriad of free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the cost-free bonuses you get depend on the hosting provider, which implies that you can also obtain a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia web hosting CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel web hosting CP you can get the work done, it's based on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different websites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as administering one or two web sites.
Hosting 10+ sites under one single cPanel hosting account is really tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
Hepsia lists just the most important 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 move between sections, you always need to return there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia offers a full-fledged demo account with just a few functions disabled. You can even set up an entire website and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel offers a stripped-down demo version, which will only give you a basic idea of what the cPanel web 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 hosting Control Panel a whirl with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
