When you order your server devoid of hosting Control Panel, the only software that will be set up on top of Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, therefore you're able to use a console to gain access to the server and to create a software environment of your liking. If you order your server with our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll have a world wide web interface with which you're able to manage almost everything just as easily as you control an ordinary shared account and all essential MySQL, FTP and email server software are pre-installed, but the root access to your server is restricted.
