Do I need a control panel for VPS?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 3:21 pm

If you are using a VPS for a single purpose – such as development, testing, or a single website – then you do not need a control panel. However, if you are using a VPS for multiple purposes, such as hosting a website and a business, then you will need a control panel.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to use a VPS, you should check with your provider to see if a control panel is included in the price. Some VPS providers do not include a control panel, which can add an extra cost to your hosting bill.

There are several different types of control panels, and each one has its own benefits and drawbacks. Some of the most popular control panels include cPanel, Plesk, and HAProxy.
