Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most famous Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has a lot of flaws and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered imperfections by the majority of users. But only because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most critical distinctions between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain name and billing very easy, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel tools - one for your site and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 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 take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click context menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Nevertheless, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive a plethora of free-of-cost extras.
With cPanel, the free extras you receive depend on the web hosting accounts provider, which suggests that you can also receive a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have demonstrated that the Hepsia hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel web hosting CP you do your job, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten different web sites with Hepsia is not harder than managing one or two websites.
Hosting more than ten sites under a single cPanel account is really difficult.
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 each section.
cPanel displays all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you invariably have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia features a full-fledged demo account with just a few functions disabled. You can even create a complete site and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to open an account.
cPanel offers a stripped-down demo, which will only give you a rough idea of what the cPanel Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But instead of simply reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting Control Panel a go with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy hosting can be?
