Moving from cPanel to Enhance: what changes for you
Moving from cPanel to Enhance? Where File Manager, phpMyAdmin, mail and cron went, the two habits to unlearn, and what can break during the move.
We cost more per month than a Namecheap reseller plan and give you a different platform rather than a cheaper copy of the same one: the modern Enhance panel, five times the NVMe, and PostgreSQL alongside MySQL.
Nebula: $25.88/month with monthly billing, or $22.88/month when billed $274.56 annually. Annual renewal: $274.56. The comparison uses annual billing on both sides.

With annual billing, Namecheap is cheaper: Nebula renews at the same price, as we do, and comes to $1,372.80 over five years against our $1,499.50. What the difference buys is in the table below — more NVMe, PostgreSQL alongside MySQL, and the Enhance panel.

Their column is what their pricing page lists; where it lists nothing, we say so rather than guess. Ours is the same table as on our plan pages.
The usual reseller arrangement: Namecheap supports you, on cPanel and WHM, and you support your clients.
The same arrangement — you sell and support, we run the platform — except that the people behind you are the senior SRE/DevOps engineers who run it, and platform incidents are theirs to handle.
Your clients keep running out of disk, or you want a panel from this decade — per-site containers, a cleaner client view, PostgreSQL for the one app that needs it. Or the infrastructure under your business is worth having senior engineers on.
Your clients specifically ask for cPanel and will not learn another panel, or the price per account is the number that decides your margin. Namecheap is cheaper per account and will stay cheaper per account.
Free on every plan, done by an engineer rather than handed to you as a tool, and with the old host left running until you have checked the new copy.
Send the login to the current host, or a backup file. One site or forty — the migration is free on every plan.
The site comes up on our platform on a temporary address. Nothing points here yet, so you can click through it before anything changes.
When you say go, the name points at us. Done outside your busy hours if you ask, and with the old host still running until it is finished.
Moving your client accounts to inSave Reseller hosting is free, and we do it rather than hand you a tool. Send the reseller login or per-account backups; we restore them here, you check them on temporary addresses, then the domains move when you say so.
Your clients will notice the move to Enhance: it looks nothing like cPanel, and pretending otherwise would waste your first support week. It is white-labelled to your brand, and the everyday things clients actually do are fewer clicks than they were.
Your brand, your domain, your logo in the panel your clients log into. Our name does not appear in front of them.
Premium managed WordPress on Google Cloud, priced for enterprises. The same managed features cost a fraction here.
The cheapest headline on the market, on a four-year commitment, renewing at roughly four times the price.
Renewals stopped on 1 October 2026 and the plans shut down a year later. Where a reseller and its clients can go instead.
A $14 managed server, with malware protection and safe updates sold per site on top. Ours includes them for one WordPress site.
$2.99 a month for the first year, $17.99 a month after it. Ours is the same price at every renewal.

Do you need PostgreSQL, or is MySQL enough? When Django, Rails and your data really call for Postgres, when it is cargo cult, and how to test it.
Renewal two to four times your first bill? Five questions to ask before you buy hosting, and how to compare hosts over three years, not one month.
