Control Panel Price Increase
End of June, cPanel® had released their new licensing model and new pricing structure. In general, it changed from VPS and dedicated server licensing type to account-based licensing model. This directly affected to any customers who are currently using cPanel WHM as their server control panel. You may find out more about the licensing update at cPanel® blogs and here is the cPanel licensing guide for your reference.
In line with the new licensing model, our control panel pricing has been adjusted as per below table with effective from 1st September 2019. All existing client’s licenses will be converted and reflect in next billing date.
