Dedicated web hosting

The most radical of all webspace hosting alternatives, the dedicated servers furnished by Universal-Hosting feature various Control Panel alternatives: (a) Hepsia (with the Debian Linux Operating System exclusively; without charge; unmetered hosted domain names; 1 hosting account login; no root access; our topmost suggestion because of the addition of the state-of-the-art Domain Manager – not added by default in any other website hosting Control Panel in the whole market); (b) DirectAdmin (cost-free); (c) cPanel (a monthly price involved). Both DirectAdmin and cPanel support CentOS only; unmetered hosted Top Level Domains; request another account login for domain, billing transaction and client support ticket handling activities; complete root-level access. All dedicated web servers are available only in the United States data center.

Control Panel 1 - The Hepsia hosting CP is a normal device only in combination with the Debian Linux OS and is delivered for free. With Hepsia you can host unlimited domain names under one single hosting account. This is accomplishable because of Hepsia's efficient Domain Manager platform. The other hosting CP tools, i.e. cPanel and DirectAdmin, are obtainable solely in combination with CentOS. Unlike Hepsia, with them you have to use TWO different user accounts. This is so, because cPanel and DirectAdmin do not deliver any domain name registration/transfer/management functionalities. If you choose Ubuntu as an Operating System for your dedicated hosting server, there will be no web hosting Control Panel opportunity.

Domains Hosted 2 - unlimited domain names can be hosted with all offered hosting Control Panel interfaces, but only with Hepsia you can register/transfer/administer your domain names in a single hosting user account. Unluckily, the cPanel/DirectAdmin web hosting Control Panel devices do not offer such function at all - there is no Domain Manager section and hence they need TWO separate user account logins: 1 domain name administration/billing/support account and 1 web site management user account (i.e. the actual cPanel/DirectAdmin CP).

OS (Operating System) 3 - you will note that the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel is offered with Debian Linux only. It's free of charge to run it on your dedicated server. Hepsia is not available with CentOS or Ubuntu. The cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting CP setups are offered solely with the CentOS Operating System. Neither of them is offered with Debian or Ubuntu.

Dedicated Server Root Access 4 - unavailable solely with the Hepsia web hosting CP and offered in all other cases.
