Server Control Panels

14 providers in this category.

Server control panels, a kind of cloud cPanel, provision and operate servers on top of your own provider account, installing the stack and handling backups, staging, and scaling for you. They suit agencies and teams that want a tuned application stack without running their own DevOps, while keeping their own cloud bill. The separators are which clouds they manage, the entry price, and what is included.
