Hepsia vs cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not imply that it is the best - it has a lot of weaknesses and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered faults by the majority of users. But just because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most crucial differences between the cPanel hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your site, domain name and billing with ease, from a one single location.
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 independent folder.
With cPanel, you have one main 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 'n' drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click contextual menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Nonetheless, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get many free-of-cost extras.
With cPanel, the charge-free extras you receive depend on the hosting provider, which implies that you can also receive a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the cPanel 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
Administering ten different web sites with the Hepsia web hosting CP is as difficult as administering one or two sites.
Hosting more than 10 web sites under one single cPanel hosting account is indeed tough.7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia Control Panel lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
The cPanel hosting Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you constantly have to return there.8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia Control Panel features a full-fledged demo version with just several functions disabled. You can even build a complete website and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to sign up.
The cPanel CP features a bare-bones demo, which will only give you a crude idea of what the cPanel web hosting CP can do.This list can go on and on. But instead of simply reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel a go with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
