One factor to make a website run smoothly is the control panel the website is using. Most people are using the cPanel control panel. If you ask any webmaster which control panel they are using, they will probably say cPanel. If you ask them have you heard of Vdeck? They would probably say no.
Vdeck is very new in world of internet. Most webmasters have no idea how it operates. So, what is this Vdeck control panel and why is it causing a stir in the internet industry. Is it better than cPanel? To find the answer to this, we should look into what this Vdeck really is.
Unknown to people, Vdeck is already in its 3rd edition of control panel in managing a website. In its official website, it claims Vdeck is "More than just a control panel, vDeck is the next generation in Web site management. With vDeck, creating, managing and promoting your Web site is as easy as 1-2-3!"
In other word, Vdeck is a very useful tool to promote and build your website if you have no knowledge about HTML. It also possesses features like pre-installed design templates ready to be used, advertising services and content manager. It is virtually a complete system suitable for business professionals. It has more depth compared to cPanel which is more suitable only for normal or small business. Among the providers who use this control panel are iPowerWeb and Startlogic. It is known to users that this control panel is slightly harder to learn, therefore, there are mixed reviews about Vdeck.
The complication of Vdeck has made cpanel a better option for many users because of its simple interface and user friendly approach. One of the most popular applications for cpanel user is the Fantastico. It contains applications like Joomla, Tikiwikiand Moodle. Users really enjoy using it because of its functionality. This is something that they don't get with Vdeck. Users find Vdeck very unfamiliar and complicated. Therefore, you can see why the top 2 hosting companies, Blue Host and Hosgator are using cPanel as their control panel in their packages.
However, there is some negativity about cPanel. They only provide basic tools for webmasters to exploit. So, if you are running an e-commerce website, cPanel would not be a smart choice for you. This is where Vdeck is useful. Vdeck provides a lot of e-commerce solution and it has a search optimization function plus a submission service which is really useful for an e-commerce website.
The bottom line is, you should choose whatever control panel that suits your need. If you are planning to run a personal website, you should probably go for cPanel because it would be simple to use.
On the other hand, if you are running a website that is related to e-commerce, then perhaps, you should choose Vdeck because it is made for this sort of website. Although it may be a little more complicated to understand, the time you use to study it will be worthwhile when you see you e-commerce running in great style and see the profits raking in.
At the time of writing, StartLogic is one of the very few hosting companies that is offering vDeck control panel; while for cPanel, both Bluehost hosting and Hostgator hosting are using. Article by Phil Anderson. |
