Get a VPS with a hosting control panel already installed. Choose the panel that fits how you work, pick a plan, and manage websites, applications, and services from a web interface.
What Is a Control Panel?
A control panel is a web interface that sits on top of your server and handles the everyday hosting jobs for you. Depending on the panel, you can add a website, deploy an application, create a mailbox, set up a database, or configure HTTPS.
You still get full root access to your VPS, so you can drop to the command line whenever you want. The panel just makes the common work faster and easier to hand off to someone else.
- Add websites and domains in a few clicks
- Deploy apps or manage email, depending on the panel
- Set up databases and storage
- Issue free SSL certificates automatically
- Schedule backups and restore files

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch panels later?
Switching panels means reinstalling the server, so move your sites off or take a backup first. Most panels can import from the others.
Do I still get root access?
Yes. Every plan is a full KVM VPS with root access, whichever panel you choose.
Which plans can I get a panel on?
Panel availability and minimum resources vary. Each panel page lists the suitable Intel and AMD plans with Order buttons.
Is this managed hosting?
The base plans are unmanaged. You can add managed services at checkout if you want us to handle updates, monitoring, and patching.
