Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel out there. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has numerous imperfections and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered weaknesses by most users. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK now.
Here are the most important distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing with ease, from a one place.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel tools - one for your site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name 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 hosting CP, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload directly in 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. However, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive a multitude of free-of-charge bonuses.
With cPanel, the charge-free 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 proven that the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is three to five times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the cPanel you do your job, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering ten different websites with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting 10+ sites under one single cPanel web hosting account is indeed tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
the cPanel web hosting Control Panel displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you invariably have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel features a full-fledged demo version with only a couple of functions disabled. You can even create a whole web site and see how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to sign up.
cPanel features a stripped-down demo, which will only give you a vague idea of what the cPanel Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But rather than simply reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia web hosting CP a whirl with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
