Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has plenty of weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered weaknesses by the majority of users. 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 Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your website, domain name and billing with ease, from a one location.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel interfaces - 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 separate 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 web hosting CP, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click contextual menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Yet, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get plenty of free-of-cost bonuses.
With cPanel, the cost-free extras you get depend on the hosting services provider, which implies that you can also receive a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that Hepsia is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel web hosting CP you can get the work done, it's based on ideas from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.6. Mutli-domain controls
Managing 10 different sites with the Hepsia CP is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting more than 10 web sites under one single cPanel account is really tough.7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel lists just 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 move between sections, you always need to go back there.8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel features a full-fledged demo account with only a couple of functions disabled. You can even set up a complete site and see how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel web hosting CP features a bare-bones demo, which will only offer you a vague idea of what the cPanel hosting Control Panel can do.This list can carry 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 discover for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
