In the hosting field, a control panel is a web-based tool which allows you to control your hosting account via a graphic interface using various tools. Considering that the alternative is to input commands in a command line, most of the people prefer to use a control panel to manage their web content. There are many control panel types and the ease of administration through each of them is different, still the vast majority of software tools supply a basic set of services which you can manage using a point-and-click interface. For example working with files and folders, managing email addresses and databases or looking at access and error logs. Several control panels will enable you to do many more things as well, so when you buy a hosting package, you should check the benefits and drawbacks of the instrument that you will use to control your new account.

Multiple Control Panels in VPS

Our virtual private server plans feature 3 different control panels to pick from during the registration process. Hepsia is in-house built and it'll allow you to control all your domains in one place together with domain registrations, service renewals and support tickets. It's also the easiest one of the three to start using as it has a very user-friendly interface. With cPanel and DirectAdmin you'll have extra flexibility as you can create an individual account on the server for every single domain name that you host and you will have full root-level access, however they're more difficult to use. They also have a reseller level that will allow you to start your own web hosting company. If you need additional power for your websites and you have not had a VPS account before, Hepsia could be the better choice to begin with.

Multiple Control Panels in Dedicated Hosting

If you decide to buy one of the dedicated server plans that we offer, you shall have as many as 3 control panels available for your machine. The easiest one to work with is named Hepsia and it's in-house built. It'll allow you to perform everything in a single place, so even when you have little experience, you will not have any problems to take care of your web content, domain names, payments or support tickets with no need to log into a separate system. Hepsia also has the most user-friendly interface. In comparison, the remaining two control panels - cPanel and DirectAdmin, are more complex to use, so you are required to have better technical skills in order to use them, but they will give you increased control over various server settings and will allow you to host every domain in an individual account. The latter option makes these two control panels suitable for running a reseller business and selling hosting accounts to other users.
