Frequently asked questions
What is a cPanel/WHM license? +
cPanel is the most widely used hosting control panel: WHM manages the server (accounts, resources, security) and cPanel gives each user control over their sites, email and databases. The license is tied to your server's IP and billed by number of accounts: Admin (up to 5 accounts), Pro (up to 30) and Premier (100 and above).
What is CloudLinux OS? +
CloudLinux is an operating system that isolates each customer in their own environment (LVE technology): a site that consumes too many resources no longer takes the others down. It's the stability foundation of shared hosting servers, compatible with cPanel/WHM and Plesk.
What is Imunify360 for? +
Imunify360 is an all-in-one server security suite: web application firewall (WAF), antivirus, proactive intrusion detection, and automatic patching. It protects hosted sites against malware and attacks with no manual intervention.
What is JetBackup? +
JetBackup automates backups and one-click restore for cPanel/WHM, to local or remote storage (S3, FTP, Google Drive…). Your clients restore a file, a database or a whole account themselves from their panel.
Plesk or cPanel: which to choose? +
Choose cPanel/WHM for large-scale Linux hosting (reselling, multi-account), and Plesk if you need Windows or a unified developer-oriented interface. Both are available here, tied to your server's IP.
