Default VZ demo?

Preface : I've used Cpanel for years, and you offer a Cpanel Demo on your sales page.


I'm looking to switch to a VPS but am unclear of the navigational/usability difference between VZ stand alone version and Cpanel with VZ.

Is there a VZ power panel demo available?

I ask because Its a $120/year difference LESS on a level 3 VPS if one goes with only a VZ as stand alone option.

In the 'real' world one tends to get less when one pays less.

Default Re: VZ demo?

The vz panel is not a web hosting panel but rather just a VPS administration panel. A VPS without cPanel will not come with Apache, MySQL, PHP and other necessary services required for websites to operate. You would need to install and configure them yourself. If you are not familiar with linux administration it is strongly recommended you opt for cPanel. If you do not have cPanel you would also not have an easy interface to use to add accounts, websites, manage e-mail, etc. unless you install a 3rd party software like webmin, or another hosting panel.

I am not aware of a vzpanel demo at this time.

Hope this helps you out in your decision!
