cPanel and WHM, in a nutshell
cPanel is the interface the end customer uses to administer their hosting: domains, emails, files, MySQL databases, SSL certificates, backups. WHM (WebHost Manager) is the administration layer above it: it is what lets you create and manage multiple cPanel accounts — the heart of our reseller plans aimed at agencies.
What official partner status guarantees
cPanel's partner program is not a mere badge: it governs access to the vendor's licenses and support.
Concretely, for your services
- Authentic cPanel/WHM licenses, activated and verifiable — not diverted licenses that stop working overnight.
- Security updates applied continuously, following the vendor's official release channels.
- Direct access to cPanel technical support for vendor-level incidents, complementing our own support.
- Guaranteed compatibility with the official ecosystem: AutoSSL (Let's Encrypt), Softaculous, JetBackup backups.
What it changes for agencies and resellers
If you resell hosting under your own brand, the provenance of licenses is a serious matter: an infrastructure built on non-compliant licenses exposes your customers to outages without notice. With an official partner, every WHM account you open rests on a license declared to the vendor — your business is backed by a clean contractual foundation.
Verify a host's status
cPanel publishes the list of its official partners on cpanel.net. Before entrusting your sites or your clients' sites to a host, make it a habit to check that it appears there.
