Here's a quick overview of what to expect.When will the price increase go in effect? We will adjust the prices for our cPanel pricing tiers on February 15, 2022.cPanel Admin Cloud will be retired: Kindly be informed that on February 15,2022, our cPanel Admin Cloud service will be terminated. All active users will be automatically upgraded to CPDirect Pro Cloud. You can connect with our sales team if you have questions here. What about shared hosting customers? Prices remain the same for our shared clients who have managed hosting and a cPanel per user for now.

Why continue to use cPanel?
Many cPanel customers are wondering whether or not to continue with the company. This is dependent on the needs of each individual user. Consider the following factors while making your selection.
1. Years of stellar experience
With 20+ years of experience, cPanel is the industry leader in website hosting control panels. During the period that cPanel has been in operation, they have released several upgrades to improve their service. As a result, users of cPanel have access to a more refined control panel.
2. Layout that Is simple to use
cPanel has built a well-designed user-friendly control panel that is simple to use for both novices and professionals. It takes time to become acclimated to a new control panel, which might have a detrimental influence on production.
3. Loss of data
Data must be transferred or recreated when switching control panels. Many customers choose to move their information. When you migrate data, you expose it to the risk of data loss or corruption. Make a backup of your data before moving it.
4. Only bill once a month
Businesses may pay for services in advance rather than having to schedule monthly payments throughout the year with an annual billing plan. The option of yearly billing has been removed from cPanel. In order to stay up with monthly payments, customers must budget monthly for it.
The verdict
It's easy to upgrade or downgrade your license if you choose to have additional cPanel accounts. This is an opportunity for you to weigh the pros and cons, and where the pros outweigh any cons, it's best to keep doing what you do. If you need assistance to modify your subscription, we can help.
