7. WordPress Installer

The CloudPanel installs and configures the latest version of WordPress. It allows a one-click WordPress installation.

You receive all the credentials for your WordPress site once the installation is finished. This includes the site details, database, and admin credentials.

8. File Manager

CloudPanel v2 comes with a built-in File Manager to organize the site files. The File Manager is a graphical interface to manage, and edit the files and folders. Single files are edited easily with the included syntax highlighting.

A drag-and-drop feature lets you upload files directly from your browser.

Features of the File Manager:

• Adding or deleting files and folders
• Drag & drop file uploading
• Editor with syntax highlighting
• Extracting Files (.zip, .tar, .gz)
• Compressing Files
• Changing Permissions
• File Downloading
• Copy and paste files

9. Integrated Firewall

The integrated Firewall in CloudPanel version 2 is based on an Uncomplicated Firewall (UFW). UFW is a frontend for iptables and is specifically well-suited for host-based firewalls. You can allow or restrict access to any port or service.

10. Site Isolation

CloudPanel offers fully isolated sites on a system level for improved server security.

Hosting different sites and applications on the same server can be a risk in terms of security. In case an application gets hacked without isolated sites the full server gets compromised.

11. User Roles

Collaborate efficiently while working with multiple users and running several sites on the same server.

CloudPanel offers various user roles to restrict access and manage user privileges. Each role has specific permissions as shown below:

• Admin Users with an Admin role have full permissions to the frontend, backend, admin area, and all sites. The Admin can add new Site Managers and Users.

• Site Manager The Site Manager has full access to manage all sites but has no access to the admin area.

• User The User role only has access to the assigned sites. They cannot access any other sites or areas of the panel.

12. Cloudflare Integration

Cloudflare is a network security solutions provider that offers DDoS mitigation. CloudPanel version 2 now supports Cloudflare integration. You can route your traffic from Cloudflare to get services:

• DDoS
• DNS
• Web Application Firewall
• Bot management
• Load Balancing
• API protection

13. Automation

CloudPanel CLI offers commands that automate server management tasks.

The CLI commands include:

• Install Let’s Encrypt Certificates
• Allow traffic from Cloudflare
• Manage User permissions
• Enable or disable Basic Auth
• Manage Database
• Import vhost templates.

A complete list of all CLI commands is available at CloudPanel v2 Docs.

CloudPanel Version 2 is now available for FREE to manage your server and applications.

Our latest release supports ARM and x86 architectures for Debian and Ubuntu operating systems. It is developed for better price-performance and offers a lightweight tech stack.

Launch sites quickly and deploy PHP, NodeJS, Python applications, and static sites. We invite everyone to check out the latest version 2 of CloudPanel.
