Hello forum, thank you for reading my post lah. After cPanel price increase make my reseller account cannot sleep well, I move to HestiaCP on Contabo VPS. Six months already, so I want to share slow-slow.
What I like:
- Web UI is clean, no need click-click many times
- DNS cluster can, but I not try yet
- Backup to SFTP work straight, no plugin need
- Let's Encrypt wildcard can with DNS challenge
What still make me headache:
- Mail stack (Exim+Dovecot+Rspamd) super heavy on 2GB RAM
- No Softaculous, must install WordPress manual-manual
- File manager cannot extract .tar.gz with password
- API documentation still kurang, many "TODO" in github
I make small comparison table also:
| Feature | cPanel | HestiaCP |
| SSL auto | yes | yes |
| NodeJS selector | yes | no |
| Git deploy | no | yes |
| MultiPHP | yes | yes |
Thank you for any correction, I still newbie in control panel world wkwkwk.
wrap it, ship it, pray it
