Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has plenty of flaws and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer regarded as faults by the majority of people. But just because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay nowadays.
Here are the most crucial distinctions between the cPanel web hosting Control Panel and the Hepsia hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain and billing with ease, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panels - one for your site and another one for your invoices and domain names.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have one principal 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 context menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. However, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get multiple cost-free extras.
With cPanel, the cost-free extras you receive depend on the web hosting packages provider, which implies that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia hosting CP is three to five times faster than the cPanel CP.
While with the The cPanel web hosting CP you can get the work done, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering ten different websites with the Hepsia web hosting CP is not harder than administering 1 or 2 sites.
Hosting 10+ sites in one single cPanel web hosting account is really difficult.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia web hosting CP 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 Control Panel lists all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you invariably need to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia web hosting CP offers a full-fledged demo account with just a few functions disabled. You can even set up an entire website and check how it looks like prior to choosing whether or not to sign up.
cPanel offers a bare-bones demo version, which will only offer you a crude idea of what the Control Panel can do.
This list can carry on and on. But instead of merely reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia web hosting CP a try with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
