Plesk and cPanel are the two best-known hosting control panels. At Tremhost, which one you choose decides whether the server can be managed for you.
Plesk at Tremhost
You run Plesk on an unmanaged KVM VPS with your own Plesk licence, and you look after the server.
Tremhost’s KVM VPS plans start at $15 a month for KVM 1 (2 dedicated cores, 2 GB RAM, 40 GB NVMe) and go up to KVM 9 at $300 a month (24 cores, 124 GB RAM, 640 GB NVMe). Every plan has 32 TB to 128 TB of monthly traffic, one IPv4 address and full root access. See the KVM VPS plans.
Tremhost sells Plesk Web Host Edition licences from $5 a month. See Plesk and other licences.
cPanel at Tremhost
Tremhost does not offer a managed Plesk server. Its managed option is the Managed cPanel VPS, from $80 a month plus a $7 setup fee, with cPanel & WHM, LiteSpeed, CloudLinux, Imunify360, core updates by Tremhost’s technicians and daily backups kept for 7 days.
Which should you choose?
- Choose Plesk on a KVM VPS if you know Plesk and are comfortable running a server.
- Choose Managed cPanel VPS if you want Tremhost’s technicians to maintain the server.
