What is the distanges of cPanel hosting ?

• cPanel is really designed for websites of small and medium firms. The cost of license can also be a problem for smaller businesses, as it may be a bit expensive for them as well as start-up firms.
• Easy Target – It is extremely sad that such a proficient and powerful control panel would lack some basic security but it does. cPanel relies on the server of the software that it is managing. This always puts it at risk of becoming a soft target for the hackers as they can make their way in through a third-party source. Hence, encryption is a big problem with cPanel.
• Different layout for WHM and cPanel   the reseller control panel,  which can make usage difficult for the user:    Web Host Manager,  cPanel’s reseller control panel,  uses a different layout than that of the cPanel interface.  The WHM offers a framed layout,  with an elongated navigation on the left,  and an icon-based menu in the right window.  Although navigation in the Web Host Manager interface is incredibly easy,  it can prove to be confusing for some resellers.  Many other control panel software use the same base layout/design for both the reseller control panel and the end-user panel.

cPanel is an extremely powerful control panel.  It’s advantages far outweigh it’s disadvantages,  as you can deduce from the above.  As we know,  a company’s control panel choice is based solely upon an opinion.  cPanel can not be considered the best because it is the most widely used – there are many comparable control panels available on the market,  and the term ‘best’ is simply a matter of opinion.  Regardless,  cPanel is an excellent piece of web hosting software,  and it would most certainly be an excellent choice.
