A hosting control panel is a web-based interface that allows users to manage their hosted services in a single place.

Read below and you may find the information you need in order to choose the right control panel for your requirements.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, when choosing a control panel for your web hosting needs you may be interested which programming languages are used for the control panel&#8217;s frontend and its backend, what services are supported etc. For that reason, we created the table below. <em><strong>The hosting control panels are not listed in any particular order. They are neither alphabetically-ordered nor based on quality. Purely random.
