Hepsia versus cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used hosting Control Panel out there. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has lots of weaknesses and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer regarded as flaws by most people. 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 essential 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 easily, from a one location.
With cPanel, you have 2 separate Control Panel interfaces - one for your web site and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have one principal domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting CP, you can take advantage of drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Yet, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain many free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the cost-free extras you obtain depend on the web hosting accounts provider, which means that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia web hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel web hosting Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel web hosting Control Panel you can get the work done, it's designed on ideas from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different web sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as managing one or two sites.
Hosting 10+ sites in a single cPanel web hosting account is indeed hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel 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 displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you always need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel features a fully fledged demo version with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a whole web site and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel CP offers a stripped-down demo, which will only give you a rough idea of what the cPanel hosting CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than merely reading about these hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting CP a try with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
