Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel these days. But that does not imply that it is the best - it has many imperfections and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered imperfections by most users. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most important distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your site, domain name and billing very easy, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 separate 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 one principal domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia hosting CP, you can take advantage of drag-and-drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. However, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive plenty of cost-free extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-charge bonuses you obtain depend on the web hosting services provider, which implies that you can also receive a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have proven that Hepsia is three to five times faster than cPanel.
While with the The cPanel hosting Control Panel you do your work in time, it's built on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering 10 different web sites with the Hepsia Control Panel is not harder than managing one or two web sites.
Hosting 10+ web sites in a single cPanel web hosting account is really tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
Hepsia lists just the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To navigate between sections, you constantly have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel features a full-fledged demo version with only several functions disabled. You can even set up a complete site and check how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel features a stripped-down demo version, which will only offer you a vague idea of what the cPanel web hosting CP can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of merely reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia CP a shot with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
