Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most widely used Control Panel today. But that does not imply that it is the finest - it has a lot of faults and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer regarded as imperfections 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 critical distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your site, domain name and billing with ease, from a a single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 different Control Panels - one for your web site and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 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 contextual menus.
After certain recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. In spite of that, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive options.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you get loads of free-of-cost bonuses.
With cPanel, the charge-free bonuses you obtain depend on the web hosting provider, which means that you can also get a bare-bones cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that Hepsia is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel web hosting CP.
While with the The cPanel CP you do your job, it's based on concepts from the year 2000 and can be sluggish at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering 10 separate websites with the Hepsia Control Panel is as difficult as administering one or two sites.
Hosting more than ten websites under one single cPanel web hosting account is really difficult.
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 each section.
The cPanel hosting CP displays all available icons on the home page. To switch between sections, you invariably have to go back there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia hosting CP 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 before deciding whether or not to register.
The cPanel web hosting Control Panel offers a stripped-down demo, which will only offer 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 hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia hosting CP a try with our Live Demo and see for yourself how easy web hosting can be?
