    Many providers may not offer this option. However, you can provide backup file to them to restore for you. Are you going to use this option frequently?

    You can restore backup of separate services like mysql, home dir, email on any hosting provider.

    Full restore is related to security issue so I think no one will allow it.

    Full cpanel restore is not available to resellers. This would be a root level permission. You are able to create an account and restore individual sections at a time although. Allowing resellers to have this would be a huge security concern.

    Hello.

    The full backup restore option is not available for normal resellers and it should not be given to them due to security reasons. Master reseller panels such as WHMPHP have this option but most providers still disable the backup option due to security reasons. If a reseller or master reseller can do a root level restore that would be a clear security risk to the server.

    Ask the host that you have a reseller account with. It's a couple button clicks.

    You need a managed cpanel VPS if you really need this.

    If you feel this an option that you really need (but want to stick with a reseller account), take a look at Plesk or DirectAdmin based reseller accounts.

    You can generate full backup file of any resold account on cPanel and your hosting provider can be restore it for free. There is no option to generate backup or restore on WHM for resellers.

    Yes that would be the only safe option that I can think of in addition to going with some master reseller plans. Hope you he is not planning to give this option to his customers (resold accounts/resellers), as again there would be a security risk.

    Most people don't even know whether their host is a reseller or the original host as the reseller host may have its own staff to handle their customer needs.
    I believe that the reseller web hosting service price is normally higher than the parent host's price, but their response to their customers may be more effective due to a relative small number of customers. Choose medium sized web host.

    There is a very explicit reason why this feature is not in the product. Allowing non-root users to restore accounts is a significant security concern.

    The current restoration system expects and anticipates that only the root user will request a restore, meaning that it trusts the information within the backup to be what the root user wants to restore. If this were extended to resellers, then a reseller would be able to restore an account with any custom features they wanted (unlimited bandwidth, unlimited disk space, etc)
