Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular web hosting Control Panel nowadays. 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 weaknesses by the majority of people. But just 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 web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing very easy, from a one single location.
With cPanel, you have two separate Control Panel tools - one for your website and another one for your billing transactions and domain names.
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 domain names are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia web hosting CP, you can use 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 performs and looks much better. In spite of that, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain tons of charge-free extras.
With cPanel, the free bonuses you get depend on the hosting packages provider, which implies that you can also obtain a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have demonstrated that the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is three to five times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the cPanel 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
Administering ten different sites with Hepsia is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting more than ten sites under a single cPanel account is indeed difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia CP lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel CP shows all available icons on the home page. To navigate between sections, you always have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia features a fully fledged demo account with just a few functions disabled. You can even build an entire site and check how it looks like before deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel hosting CP features a stripped-down demo, which will only offer 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 web hosting Control Panel a try with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy hosting can be?
