cPanel Alternative – Reliable and Affordable

With recent cPanel price increase, it is not affordable anymore especially for VPS and even Dedicated Servers, this recent cPanel price increase is going to force a lots of Web Hosting providers to switch to other Control Panels.

There are very few good alternatives to cPanel as cPanel is feature rich, stable and was not very expensive until now. Some of the alternatives to cPanel are:

  1. Plesk
  2. Direct Admin (Free with Hosteons VPS)
  3. VestaCP (Free)

Plesk is also owned by same parent company as cPanel, so it’s not big deal that even Plesk follows same path as cPanel hence it’s no brainer to switch to Plesk

Direct Admin is a very old, mature and stable web hosting control panel, it just does not have all the good looks of cPanel but it is very stable and secure and also provides regular updates, also unlike cPanel it works not only on CentOS but also many other linux variants like Debian, Ubuntu and many more, it even supports FreeBSD

Direct Admin is much cheaper then cPanel infant we at hosteons provide it for free with most of our VPS Packages, just use coupon code “DA” to get Direct Admin for free with your VPS

VestaCP is another web hosting control panel, but its a free control panel and had some vulnerabilities in past, so it’s OK to use for personal use, but commercial or production use is not recommended.

Free Direct Admin With VPS

To add more value to our services and to make VPS management easier for our client we are now offering Direct Admin Control Panel for free with most of our VPS packages. Since Direct Admin has certain resource requirements, we are going to offer Direct Admin on following VPS Packages:

KVM VPS: 

VPS 2 – VPS 7

OpenVZ VPS:

OVZ 2 – OVZ 7

To get Direct Admin for free you need to use coupon code “DA” while placing order and after placing order please submit a support ticket to install Direct Admin on your VPS, we will reinstall your VPS and also install Direct Admin for you and reply back to you within 24 hours (We do have 24×7 support but Direct Admin Licenses are handled by Billing hence we cannot activate it immediately)

Please note it is applicable only on new VPS Orders.

Hosteons – First Anniversary – Journey So Far

Time Flies yes that’s true, sounds like yesterday when we launched our services in May 2018. We started with just one KVM VPS Node in Los Angeles and a web hosting box in May 2018 and basically no team just a one man show but today within one year we are now offering KVM VPS Hosting from three different data centres and two locations – Los Angeles Psychz, Los Angeles InterNAP and New York InterNAP. Not only this we are now even offering DDOS Protected Dedicated Servers from Los Angeles (New York Also coming soon). We are now even offering OpenVZ 7 based VPS from Los Angeles Psychz. Now we have a 24×7 support team with working round the clock to assist our valuable clients.

We faced a lot of hurdles during this journey. Most important was to gain trust of clients since so many hosting companies and summer host companies pop up every day and then dead pool within few months but by offering affordable and stable services slowly we were able to overcome this hurdle. Again thanks to our clients for trusting us.

One year ago we had zero clients but today we are serving more than 4000 VPS and also hosting tons of websites on our network.  All the credit goes to our valuable and loyal clients, affiliates and our rockstar support team.

I Kapil Jain – Founder of Hosteons.com would like to thank all our clients, affiliates, our vendors and support team to help us grow so quickly.

I would also like to share some of our future plans for the upcoming year:

1) Launch OpenVZ VPS Services in New York

2) Provide Dedicated Servers in New York

3) Add more locations for our VPS Hosting Services

VPS Nodes and Web Hosting Server Migration and Downtime

We are constantly working on improving our network and services hence to improve our VPS as well as Web Hosting services we have decided to change Datacenter for our services.

Currently all our VPS Nodes as well as Web Hosting servers in LA are hosted with Psychz but to provide even better services we are migrating all our servers to InterNAP

During this migration we will be physically moving servers to InterNAP and your IP will remain same, there will be no change in your services as we will be using same hardware.

We will be sending out email to all clients once we schedule a date and time for migration, but this migration will lead to about 5 hours of downtime, all our services in LA will be down during these 5 hours, but once it’s migrated we are sure all our clients will really enjoy and like the new services as they will be much better then our current services, all clients will get much better network latency.

Following customers will be affected with this migration:

1) All LA KVM VPS Users who are on Node 1 – Node 12  (Users on Node 13 will not be affected as it’s already at INAP/InterNAP)

2) All OpenVZ VPS users

3) Web Hosting Users

Our NY KVM VPS users will also not be affected with this migration.

But we still advice all our clients to take backups of their important data as servers are electronic equipments and there is always a possibility of things going wrong when such migrations are involved though we will be doing our best to make sure all data and servers are securely transferred.

We will email all our customers once we finalise date and time for migration, we will even post an announcement about it here.
