Web hosting tools
File manager, FTP accounts, phpMyAdmin, MySQL databases, remote MySQL access, backups and one-click restore.
Fast, simple and powerful. MyPanel puts your websites, email, domains, backups and security in one clean dashboard that works on any device — with no cPanel licence costs passed on to you.
Legacy control panels grew feature by feature into dense grids of icons. MyPanel was designed by people with more than 20 years in hosting and is improved through regular user testing, so everyday jobs — creating a mailbox, adding an SSL certificate, restoring a file — take a few clicks.
Because it isn’t tied to a single server like cPanel, MyPanel also unlocks platform features such as autoscaling, a global CDN and built-in failover.
| Feature | MyPanel | Typical cPanel hosting |
|---|---|---|
| Autoscaling cloud hosting | Yes | No — tied to one server |
| Redundant web servers with failover | Yes | No |
| Global CDN built in | Yes | No |
| Website acceleration suite | Yes | No |
| Isolated web, database and email servers | Yes | No |
| Email stored separately from website space | Yes | No — uses your disk quota |
| WordPress staging | Yes | Varies by host |
| Google-based DNS | Yes | No |
| Fully responsive on mobile | Yes | Limited |
| Licence cost | Included | Often passed on to customers |
Comparison based on a standard single-server cPanel setup.

Yes. MyPanel is fully responsive, so you can create mailboxes, check backups or clear the CDN cache from any device.
