In the hosting world, a control panel is a web-based tool which will make it possible for you to control your hosting account via a graphic interface using various instruments. As the alternative is to type in commands in a command line, most people prefer to use a control panel to take care of their webpage content. There are many different control panel types and the simplicity of administration through each one is different, yet the vast majority of software tools offer a basic set of services which you'll be able to control using a point-and-click interface. For instance working with files and folders, managing e-mail addresses and databases or viewing access and error logs. A few control panels will allow you to do many more things too, so when you get a hosting package, you should check the advantages and disadvantages of the software tool which you will use to manage your new account.
Multiple Control Panels in VPS Servers
The VPS server plans that we sell include three separate control panels to pick from and you'll be able to choose any of them during the registration process based on your specific needs and level of experience. Hepsia is the easiest to use one and it will make it easier to use a VPS even when you have never had any hosting account before. It is an all-in-one tool through which you can manage not only your web content, but also support tickets, renewal payments and domain name registrations. With cPanel and DirectAdmin you will have additional control because you will receive server root access and you’ll be able to make a different account for each site that you host, but these two control panels are more difficult to use compared with Hepsia and require some experience. Since they have client and reseller levels, they will also give you the opportunity to start a reseller business and have clients of your own.
Multiple Control Panels in Dedicated Servers
If you decide to acquire one of the dedicated server packages that we provide, you'll have as many as 3 control panels to make your choice from for your machine. The easiest one to work with is named Hepsia and it's in-house built. It will allow you to do a lot of things in one place, so even if you have little experience, you will not have any problems to handle your website content, domains, payments and support tickets without the need to log into another system. Hepsia also has the most user-friendly interface. In contrast, the other two control panels - cPanel and DirectAdmin, are more complicated to use, so you need more technical skills to properly use them, but they'll give you additional control over various server settings and will allow you to host every domain in an individual account. The aforementioned option makes these two control panels ideal for running a reseller business and selling hosting accounts to other users.
