In the Internet hosting field, a control panel is a web-based instrument that makes it possible to control your hosting account via a graphic interface using various instruments. As the alternative is to enter commands in a command line, most of the people prefer to use a control panel to manage their website content. There're many control panel brands and the simplicity of administration through each one is different, still the vast majority of tools provide a basic set of services which you can manage from a point-and-click interface. For example working with files and folders, managing emails and databases or viewing access and error logs. Several control panels will enable you to do many more things too, so when you get a web hosting solution, you should check the advantages and disadvantages of the software tool which you will use to control your new account.
Multiple Control Panels in VPS
Our virtual private server packages come with 3 different control panels to choose from during the signup process. Hepsia is in-house built and it will help you to take care of all your domains in one place together with domain registrations, plan renewals and support tickets. It's also the easiest one of the three to start using as it has an exceptionally intuitive interface. With cPanel and DirectAdmin you'll have more flexibility as you will be able to create a separate account on the server for each domain name that you host and you'll have full root-level access, still they are more difficult to use. They also have a reseller level that will enable you to start your own hosting company. If you need additional power for your Internet sites and you haven't had a VPS account before, Hepsia may be the better option to begin with.
Multiple Control Panels in Dedicated Hosting
If you go for one of the dedicated server packages that we offer, you'll find as many as three different control panels on the order page. The first one is our Hepsia Control Panel, that will allow you to manage the entire server as a single account, so you'll see all your domain names, emails, databases, invoices and support tickets in one place. The other two, cPanel and DirectAdmin, will permit you to make multiple accounts and in case you get the server with some of them, you will also get full root access. Both of the control panels will also provide you with the opportunity to make your own hosting company since they have a reseller level that will allow you to create hosting plans and manage multiple server-side settings. Hepsia is the optimal choice if you want everything to be simple, while cPanel and DirectAdmin are suitable if you would like to have additional control and if you have some experience in maintaining your own server.
