Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Cloud Hosting : cPanel license provider for my Cloud server.

[whrss]

I am looking for a cPanel license provider for my Cloud server.

Do you know who provides the license at a cheaper rate?

Thanks for the inputs.

Take a look at http://www.instantcpanellicense.com

I presume a cloud server would be considered a VPS because its still a shared system so your looking at $15 a month.

Thanks Rob. But I have heard of providers offering VPS Cpanel license for $11-$12. Any idea if that is true?

[Thomas]

That is true, what rate are you getting now?

[Rob]

11 - 12usd may be internal license prices depending on who your provider is... If they are a partner NOC then you will be able to get licenses much cheaper.

I contacted Rackspace for a Cloud server but they don't provide any internal license. All I heard was that, external Cpanel license costs around $15.00.

I am planning for a cloud server with Cpanel license for testing (don't need a demo license though). Any affordable Cloud providers like RackSpace, who offers an Internal Cpanel license?

Or any External Cpanel license provider who is cheaper?

[Rob]

Rackspace do Plesk licenses though.... cPanel cheapest external licence I have ever found was $14 / $15

Thanks Rob.. Running Plesk CP might take more CPU than a Cpanel/WHM server, so I will buy a Cpanel license from an external license provider.

[Ekin]

You'd be suprised to see that Plesk actually uses less resources then cPanel

[whrss]

You mean less RAM/CPU?

[Ekin]

Yes, RAM and CPU wise is definitely less then cPanel.

Hi

Try cpanelsource.com for external licence's they do discounts on non VPS licences when you buy a certain amount not sure on the VPS side.

Thanks

HiVelocity I think does cpanel vps for 10 / month but I THINK it might be internal only.... you can ask.

if you are just out to test something, then get a trial cpanel. Some cloud providers has preinstalled cpanel images, so you can setup your cpanel server in seconds fully installed and ready to rock.

If you'd like something really lightweight, you should consider ISPmanager PRO. It's a very nice setup that works well for 'light' servers.

There is a "partners" page on cpanel.net - you'll find a good cPanel reseller there. If you're choosing between Plesk and cPanel, definitely go with cPanel. You'll have too much grief with Plesk, and looking at where the company is going (Parallels), Plesk prices are only set to grow.
