Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has numerous weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer regarded as imperfections by most users. But only because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay nowadays.
Here are the most important distinctions between the cPanel hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your site, domain and billing with ease, from a a single place.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel interfaces - one for your site and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one main domain name folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you can take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click contextual menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Yet, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive tons of free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the free bonuses you get depend on the hosting services provider, which implies that you can also obtain a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel CP you do your work in time, it's based on ideas from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering 10 separate web sites with the Hepsia hosting CP is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting 10+ sites under one single cPanel web hosting account is really hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia hosting CP lists only the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
The cPanel hosting CP shows all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you invariably need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia Control Panel offers a fully fledged demo account with only several functions disabled. You can even build an entire web site and check how it looks like before deciding whether or not to sign up.
cPanel features a stripped-down demo, which will only give you a crude idea of what the cPanel hosting CP 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 shot with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
