What is DirectAdmin - Definition
DirectAdmin is a graphical control panel with a simple interface for hosting services and websites (e.g., shared web hosting or VPS server). Thanks to its simple structure and intuitiveness, it allows performing administrative activities quickly and easily without entering commands in text mode. Those tasks include separate backup, creating and managing databases, managing domains, hosting accounts, and creating FTP accounts and mail accounts within the server. DirectAdmin, alongside CPanel, is one of the simplest server management panels that contains all the features, delivering sophisticated solutions for beginners and semi-advanced users.
DirectAdmin stays in step:
Due to Cpanel's recent price hikes, DirectAdmin features are becoming a very appealing alternative constantly evolving. A significant advantage of the DirectAdmin panel is the tool's availability in the new language pack and an extensive help database, which will support the novice user step by step in operating the essential functions.
Primary functions of the DirectAdmin panel:
- management of domains,
- subdomains, SSL certificates
- control of domain DNS settings,
- creation of FTP accounts, MySQL databases/MariaDB databases,
- adding, deleting e-mail accounts, the configuration of redirects and autoresponders,
- Cron job management,
- access to files on the server,
- creation and restoration of backup copies,
- access to server logs and statistics.
