s we all knows cPanel announced a massive price increase and a complete change to their billing model, by adding an additional layer of billing per account.
The company, which specialises in interfaces aimed at simplifying website and server management, announced the increases without any warning, with licences purchased or renewed from now hit immediately, with monthly licences sticking with the old structure until 1 September, 2019
Annual licences are also for the chop and will be converted to monthly billing as they come up for renewal.
The gang previously had three tiers for users to enjoy – cPanel Solo, at $15/month, cPanel and WHM VPS at $20/month (or $200/year), or a dedicated version aimed at larger web hosts for $45/month or $425/year.
The tiers have now been renamed to Admin, Pro and Premier (at $20, $30 and $45/month respectively) but - and this is what has really enraged customers -an account limit has been applied. The top level, Premier, is limited to 100 accounts. Additional accounts will require an extra $0.20/month each.
The company explained the change in its updated licensing guide, saying that: "Historically, cPanel has based its services and pricing around a VPS or Dedicated license with unlimited cPanel Accounts" but improvements in hardware means it needs to change its pricing structure.
Measures taken by Hostmalabar, that users can follow or not:
1.Users can stay on Cpanel Servers / Hosting Itself, but the updated tarrif will be applied.
2.If the users can't handle the updated tarrif, you can move to our newly configured server with Control Panels like Plesk/DirectAdmin/Interworx.
All Existing resellers need to reply with your required control panel server details on or before 28th July 2019.
