Hepsia vs. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular hosting Control Panel nowadays. But that does not mean that it is the best - it has numerous imperfections and it has had them for so long that they are no longer considered flaws by the majority of people. But only because something was OK in the year 2000 doesn't mean that the same thing will be okay nowadays.
Here are the most essential distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can administer your website, domain name and billing with ease, from a one single location.
With cPanel, you have 2 separate Control Panels - one for your site and another one for your invoices and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own independent folder.
With cPanel, you have 1 main domain folder and all other add-on domains are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia 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 some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager works and looks much better. Still, it offers neither drag-and-drop file upload functionality, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
