Diarmo recommends some foreign panels for you toSupport for OpenLiteSpeed, faster site speeds, better performance to support more concurrency, isThe perfect replacement for pagoda panels.
Shared hosting performance is not good, the renewal fee is also expensive, can not put more than one website and complex large-scale website. Managed hosting price is high, the general public can not afford to use.VPS hosting both performance and price, is the majority of people who know the technology to build foreign trade sites and e-commerce site preferred.
VPS only bare metal, you need to install your own panel, there are not many optional panels on the market, Cpanel minimum $26 a month is too expensive, CyberPanel features and user experience does not work. The vast majority of people will choose Pagoda panel, free, easy to operate, powerful, professional version 699/year, enterprise version 1399/year.
Pagoda is quite good, the light of national products, but there are many problems. Poor compatibility, easy to crash, ads everywhere, all features cost money. Pagoda understands profit, and only focuses on optimizing/maintaining popular systems and features, and ignores systems and features with few users, so compatibility is poor.
The official Pagoda forum staff said to give up on OpenLiteSpeed maintenance because of the small number of users. Diamo (www.diiamo.cn) has been using Pagoda for many years, encountered quite a few compatibility problems, and posted dozens of times in the Pagoda forum for help, which is quite tiring.
Newbies love Pagoda, veterans hate Pagoda, and even start looking for alternatives. 1panel and other alternative panels are also doing well, with good reviews. Do foreign sites, especially OpenLiteSpeed system, it is recommended to use foreign panels, more stable, faster.
Overseas Panel Recommendation
Foreign panel technology is more stable, their customer service can really solve the problem, professional enough (except Xcloud). The domestic ones don't know what to ask, they answer and don't seem to answer, and sometimes they can't find anyone. At present, the compatibility and stability of domestic panels and speed are not as good as foreign countries.
xCloud Panel
Mo recommended a foreign panel: xCloud. it has a rental hosting business, but also sell panels ↓. 1 server, 10 sites within the free! Support Nginx, OpenLiteSpeed and other systems with firewalls, backup features, performance monitoring and so on. For the vast majority of users, the free package is enough.
If you have more than 1 server or 10 websites, you need to pay up to $5/month, more than 11 servers $3/month, cost-effective. Click here to see the difference between the 2 versions:xCloud free version vs xCloud paid version.
Diamo (www.diiamo.cn) read some foreign website reviews and user sharing, xCloud deep optimization of WordPress, faster than Cloudways.Cloudways technology stack is actually very old, a little behind.
xCloud can quickly link Vultr, Akamai, AWS and other VPS servers, and one-click installation panel. Supports automatic free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate renewal, incremental site backup, online customer service, multi-account management, MariaDB database, and Chinese language support.
The free version of xCloud does not support the backup function and performance monitoring. For backup function, you can use Pagoda's snapshot backup function, which costs about 2 dollars a month for 10 sites, which is actually better than using the paid version of xCloud to save time. Performance monitoring is not actually okay, only when the site card need to use it, of course, with xCloud paid version is better.
xCloud Panel Disadvantages
It's pretty good for the price and speed, but the customer support and is crap, extremely slow to reply and set up no replies. The problem solving is also for the user to read the tutorials themselves or to say that the problem doesn't exist. I emailed them 3 times and got no reply....
So this panel should not be used by novices, out of the problem can only rely on themselves, certainly can not get it. Veterans with the ability to deal with problems can use it.
TrustpilotThe comments above agree with Dee's: fast speed, crap customer service support.
