- ScalaHosting Announces New SPanel-Based Hosting Plans
- Their team will take care of customer migration free of charge
- SPanel for non-ScalaHosting shared hosting plans
American web hosting provider ScalaHosting has released an update to SPanel allowing it to be used on shared hosting plans. The update gives shared hosting customers (and resellers) of one of the best web hosting providers more flexibility and choice when it comes to hosting panels for their hosting, as cPanel increases prices for 2025 .
SPanel has been widely considered one of the best alternatives to cPanel and offers a variety of features for people looking to move away from cPanel.
SPanel is developed by ScalaHosting to efficiently manage servers, websites and email accounts. It offers enhanced security, resource management, and user-friendly tools. There are other panels, but they have always struggled to compete with cPanel, either due to being locked into one hosting provider or lacking features and value for money.
The final step in creating a viable alternative to cPanel/WHM
Chris Russev, CEO and co-founder of ScalaHosting & SPanel.io, told TechRadar Pro: “Making SPanel available to shared hosting customers was the final step in turning it into a full-scale cPanel/WHM alternative. What truly defines our control panel. What stands out is its community-driven approach to development. He added: “Instead of building features based on our preferences, we took a different route: allowing web developers and hosting users to shape them based on their actual needs.”
Russev went on to say: “To features.spanel.ioanyone can suggest new features and vote for existing ones. We prioritize and develop requests from users who receive the most votes, ensuring that the platform evolves to meet the needs of its community.
Transform any self-managed hosting into fully managed hosting
A key feature is the mount directly integrated into the panel. Russev explained: “Another major difference is the 24/7 live technical support included with every SPanel license, making it the first ever fully managed hosting control panel. This unique feature can turn any self-managed hosting service into a fully managed service. »
For existing ScalaHosting shared hosting customers, the option to upgrade to SPanel will be offered by March 1st. Technical support can manage the migration seamlessly and without downtime. Those who wish to stay with cPanel can do so.
