Control Panels

We offer a wide range of both Linux and Windows supported control panels that are all built to simplify server and website management.

  • cPanel Linux

  • Plesk Pro Edition
  • Plesk App Edition
  • Plesk Hosting Edition
  • Plesk Admin Edition
YesUser Interface

cPanel is more popular, and since more users are familiar and comfortable with it, they’ll argue that its interface is friendlier.
NoUser Interface

Plesk is generally regarded as having the cleaner and more attractive interface, and I personally agree with that.
YesCost

cPanel costs up to $425 per year on its dedicated plan, which breaks down to $35 per month for unlimited use.
NoCost

Plesk, for a similar plan, costs $40 per month.
NoWindows Support

cPanel only runs on CentOS, RedHat and CloudLinux. It doesn’t run on Windows.
YesWindows Support

Plesk, on the other hand, adds a host of other Linux distributions to the list, in addition to Windows support.
YesAdmin Panels

cPanel comes with Web Host Manager (WHM) as standard, although shared hosting users will never see WHM unless they upgrade to reseller or VPS hosting.interfaces.
NoAdmin Panels

Plesk, on the other hand, has a single login for administrators and users. They look similar – the options are quite different.
YesEase of Migration

Both Plesk and cPanel make it easy to migrate from one server to the other, assuming you move to and from the same control panel.
