Hepsia versus cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used web hosting Control Panel out there. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has numerous flaws and it has had them for so long that they are no longer regarded as flaws by the majority of users. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be OK now.
Here are the most essential distinctions 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 place.
With cPanel, you have two separate Control Panel interfaces - one for your website and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain has its own independent 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 Chicago website hosting CP, you can take advantage of drag 'n' drop file upload directly in the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive functions and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Still, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive a lot of free-of-charge extras.
With cPanel, the free bonuses you receive depend on the web hosting plans provider, which means that you can also get a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have demonstrated that the Hepsia Control Panel is 3 to 5 times faster than cPanel.
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
Managing ten different websites with the Hepsia CP is as difficult as administering one or two websites.
Hosting more than ten websites under one single cPanel hosting account is really hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
Hepsia lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in each section.
The cPanel hosting CP lists all available icons on the home page. To move between sections, you invariably need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
Hepsia offers a fully fledged demo version with only a couple of functions disabled. You can even build a complete web site and see how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to sign up.
cPanel features a bare-bones demo, which will only give you a vague idea of what the Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But rather than simply reading about these Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia CP a shot with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy hosting can be?
