Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has many flaws and it has had them for so long that they are no longer regarded as weaknesses by most people. But only because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK now.
Here are the most important distinctions between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing easily, from a one single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panel tools - 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 1 principal domain name folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia web 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 certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. However, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you obtain multiple free extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-cost bonuses you obtain depend on the hosting accounts provider, which suggests that you can also get a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia hosting CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel CP you can get the work done, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing ten separate sites with Hepsia is not harder than managing 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting 10+ websites in one single cPanel web hosting account is indeed difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP lists just the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
the cPanel web hosting Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you always need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel features a fully fledged demo account with just several functions disabled. You can even set up a whole site and check how it looks like before deciding whether or not to register.
cPanel features a stripped-down demo version, which will only offer you a crude idea of what the Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of simply reading about these hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia Control Panel a try with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
