As we move into 2025, cPanel has announced adjustments to their license pricing structure, affecting current subscriptions and introducing in June 2024 an updated Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) program.
We understand that any price increase can impact your business, and we want to ensure this transition is as smooth as possible for our clients. With that in mind, we are committed to maintaining competitive pricing for cPanel licenses, ensuring our rates remain below those of cPanel directly, even with the new adjustments.
Current cPanel license holders will keep their price lock for cPanel licenses until January 1st, 2025. The ELS fee was introduced in June for those using CentOS 7 or CloudLinux 7, ensuring continued support and security updates for affected servers.
If the new prices don’t align with your needs, we offer a FREE aaPanel or CloudPanel control panel with any of our VPS, cloud hosting, and dedicated server packages. Alternatively, DirectAdmin is available as a paid option on both Cloud VPS and Dedicated servers.
Contact our sales team for assistance transitioning to a server running aaPanel, CloudPanel, or DirectAdmin.
