Neytom vs classic control-panel hosting
Classic control panels are familiar. Neytom keeps the “get a site live” job simple while replacing shared packing with Shared free Nano or one LXC/CT per domain.
| Typical classic shared panel | Neytom | |
|---|---|---|
| Isolation | Shared account space | LXC/CT (Micro+) · Shared free Nano |
| UI | Legacy control panel | Modern Neytom panel |
| SSL / email | Often manual / add-on | Included on plans |
| Backups | Host-dependent | ZFS backup + snapshot |
| Deploy | File manager / FTP | ~60s templates + Git path |
Why people stay on classic panels
Muscle memory. Support articles and agency SOPs assume File Manager, autoinstallers, and “create email account” in the same places for years. Leaving feels riskier than living with slow PHP and surprise inode limits.
Why people leave
Shared panel hosts still pack many customers together. Resource limits are opaque. SSL and backups vary by reseller. Neytom keeps the “panel ships a site” job but draws a hard LXC boundary per domain.
Feature translation map
- File Manager / FTP → deploy templates + site files inside the isolated stack; use SFTP when you need it.
- One-click WordPress → Neytom WordPress stack (~60s). Guide: Deploy WordPress.
- Email accounts → included mail path on hosting plans; recreate aliases after DNS cutover.
- Host backups → ZFS backup + snapshot on Neytom hosting.
- Reseller multi-tenant panels → isolate each client domain instead of sharing one panel user.
Migration playbook
1) Inventory domains, DB names, cron, and mailboxes. 2) Create matching stacks on Neytom. 3) Move files + databases. 4) Test on the Neytom hostname. 5) Lower TTL, cut DNS, watch SSL and mail. Full detail: Migration guide.
FAQ
Can I leave a classic panel without learning raw Linux?
Yes. Neytom’s panel deploys isolated stacks; use Cloud VPS only if you want full root.
How do I migrate?
Follow the migration guide, point DNS when ready, and keep SSL/email/backups on the new stack.
Do you clone classic autoinstaller catalogs?
Neytom uses its own ~60s templates and stacks instead of classic autoinstaller catalogs — see Templates.
What about reseller / multi-tenant panel workflows?
Neytom is not a reseller-panel clone. Agencies usually run one isolated stack per client domain under one account.
Will my email accounts move?
Export mail or recreate mailboxes on the Neytom mail path after DNS. Plan the cutover; do not assume IMAP sync is automatic.
Is there a free way to test?
Nano is free for new users for 30 days so you can validate the panel and WordPress deploy before leaving a classic shared host.
