Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular web hosting Control Panel these days. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has numerous weaknesses and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered flaws by the majority of people. But just because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be OK nowadays.
Here are the most crucial distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your website, domain name and billing easily, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have two different Control Panel tools - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one main domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting CP, you can use drag-and-drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Nonetheless, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get plenty of free-of-charge bonuses.
With cPanel, the cost-free extras you get depend on the hosting services provider, which implies that you can also obtain a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have revealed that Hepsia is three to five times faster than cPanel.
While with the The cPanel CP 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 separate web sites with the Hepsia CP is not harder than administering one or two websites.
Hosting more than ten web sites under one single cPanel web hosting account is really tough.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP lists only the most essential sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
cPanel displays all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you invariably have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia CP offers a full-fledged demo account with just a couple of functions disabled. You can even build a complete site and see how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to open an account.
The cPanel web hosting CP offers a bare-bones demo, which will only give you a crude idea of what the cPanel web hosting Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But rather than merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia CP a go with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy hosting can be?
