cPanel
cPanel, which stands for “control panel,” is a web-based management tool created for the purpose of making the administration of web sites as easy as possible. With a cPanel Dedicated Server, web hosting becomes as simple as clicking a button. cPanel is feature rich and Vault Networks is pleased to offer both cPanel for Linux as well as Enkompass, cPanel’s Windows control panel. Because cPanel was designed with end users in mind, your system users will be able to control all aspects of their web sites, including adding and removing email accounts and administering databases.
cPanel hosting is simple because it puts you in complete control of your server. cPanel simplifies system maintenance tasks like:
- Creating email accounts
- Backing up data
- Uploading and managing web pages
- Installing web-based applications like shopping carts, blogs and forums
- Generating and viewing statistics about visitors
- Reviewing error logs to resolve broken links and other issues
- Protecting a site’s content and bandwidth from abuse
For Linux: cPanel/WebHost Manager (WHM)
The cPanel and WHM software package makes life easier for web hosts and the website owners they serve. It offers easy-to-use, powerful tools that perform essential tasks quickly, easily, and reliably.
WHM is cPanel’s solution for dedicated server management in reselling. Designed for server administrators and web hosts, WHM serves as the control center designed to cover all aspects of web hosting. This includes setting up and managing accounts and supervising bandwidth and services. With the cPanel WebHost Manager package, all it takes to effectively manage the accounts on your server is an internet connection and a mouse.
