Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular Control Panel nowadays. But that does not imply that it is the finest - it has numerous weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer regarded as weaknesses by most people. 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 important distinctions 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 and billing very easy, from a a single place.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel interfaces - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domains.
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 domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After certain 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 functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get a lot of charge-free extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-cost bonuses you get depend on the web hosting solutions provider, which implies that you can also obtain a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that Hepsia is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel hosting Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel web hosting CP you can get the job done, it's built on ideas from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different websites with the Hepsia web hosting CP is as difficult as administering 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting 10+ sites under one single cPanel hosting account is indeed hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
Hepsia lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel shows all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you constantly have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia Control Panel features a fully fledged demo version with just a few functions disabled. You can even set up a whole web site and check how it looks like before deciding whether or not to open an account.
cPanel features a stripped-down demo version, which will only give you a rough idea of what the cPanel CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia Control Panel a go with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
