Best Hosting Control Panels for Debian

Cockpit is a web-based graphical interface for servers, intended for everyone, especially those who are new to Linux, familiar and expert admins. Thanks to Cockpit intentionally using system APIs and commands, a whole team of admins can manage a system in the way they prefer, including the command line and utilities right alongside Cockpit. See your server in a web browser and perform system tasks with a mouse. It’s easy to start containers, administer storage, configure networks, and inspect logs. Basically, you can think of Cockpit like a graphical “desktop interface”, but for individual servers. Have a favorite app or command-line tool that you use on your servers? Keep using the command line, Ansible, and your other favorite tools and add Cockpit to the mix with no issues. Cockpit uses the same system tooling you would use from the command line. You can switch back and forth between Cockpit and whatever else you like.

GNUPanel is a completely free replacement (GPL) for web hosting server automation software. The current version of GNUPanel is focused on Debian, however, a total revision of the code is contemplated, with many improvements and changes for the next few months. It is an application written mainly in PHP 5, born to run on Debian GNU/Linux servers in their 32 or 64-bit versions. It consists of a traditional web interface scheme with three levels of privileges, administrator, reseller and user with SSL access. The administrator can create public and private hosting plans, accept payments with Paypal, Digital Account or DineroMail, send messages to their users, use an integrated support ticket system, control transfer, disk space and establish account suspension policies. Users have all the usual functions, creation of mail and FTP accounts, databases, redirects, directory protection, etc.
