All About Your cPanel
cPanel
Your cPanel is a powerful hosting manager with dozens of features. For most DataMax clients, you will use cPanel as a quick and easy way to both check your business mail and manage and set up additional mailboxes for your employees. Most clients will log in to their DataMax Hosting dashboard to access cPanel and mail. Since your website is WordPress and is provided with the Elementor plugin drag-and-drop website builder, you will likely have little more need for cPanel. You can, however, find out much more in the video on the left and below.

Your cPanel is a web hosting control panel software developed by cPanel, LLC. It provides a graphical interface (GUI) and automation tools designed to simplify the process of hosting a web site to the website client or the “end user”. It enables administration through a standard web browser using a three-tier structure. The most common use for most Enterprise Website clients at DataMax is simply to manage and provide access to your business mail related to your domain.
cPanel provides front-ends for a number of common operations, including the management of PGP keys, crontab tasks, mail and FTP accounts, and mailing lists. Several add-ons exist, some for an additional fee, including auto installers such as Installation, Fantastico, Softaculous, and WHMSonic (SHOUTcast/radio Control Panel Add-on). The add-ons need to be enabled by the server administrator in WHM to be accessible to the cPanel user.
