What is CyberPanel hosting?
CyberPanel hosting is a Linux VPS with the free CyberPanel control panel installed, running the OpenLiteSpeed web server. From a browser you create websites, mailboxes, databases, DNS zones and SSL certificates without typing server commands.
The panel is free software; the VPS underneath is what you pay for. CyberPanel's own documentation says both editions of the panel are identical and differ only in the web server: the standard build uses OpenLiteSpeed, free for unlimited domains, while CyberPanel Enterprise uses LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise, which is free for one domain and needs a paid licence beyond that.
| Job | Software CyberPanel installs |
|---|---|
| Web server | OpenLiteSpeed (or LiteSpeed Enterprise with a licence) |
| DNS | PowerDNS |
| Mail transfer | Postfix |
| File upload | Pure-FTPd |
| Object caching (optional) | Memcached and Redis |
| Recovery | Kernel watchdog that reboots a hung system |
Who should choose CyberPanel hosting?
CyberPanel suits WordPress owners, freelancers and small agencies who want a VPS with a graphical panel but do not want to pay a monthly cPanel licence. It also suits anyone who wants LiteSpeed-style page caching at the server level rather than through a stack of cache plugins.
- Good fit: one busy WordPress site, or a handful of client sites, that has outgrown shared hosting.
- Good fit: developers comfortable with SSH who still want a panel for routine tasks.
- Poor fit: teams that depend on cPanel tutorials, WHM reseller accounts or Softaculous-style workflows; they are better on a cPanel VPS.
- Poor fit: Windows applications such as ASP.NET, which CyberPanel does not run.
How much does CyberPanel hosting cost in India?
The CyberPanel software costs nothing with OpenLiteSpeed; the cost is the VPS, and WebJi® VPS plans start at ₹499 a month before 18% GST. The right VPS size depends on how many sites, mailboxes and databases you will run, so confirm the plan with support before ordering.
| Item | Cost | Note |
|---|---|---|
| CyberPanel with OpenLiteSpeed | Free | Unlimited domains, per CyberPanel |
| WebJi® VPS | From ₹499 a month before 18% GST | See VPS hosting for sizes |
| LiteSpeed Enterprise licence | Paid, from the vendor | Optional; free for one domain only |
| cPanel licence, for comparison | About USD 15–26 a month for small tiers; Premier (100 accounts) about USD 69.99 | Vendor list prices checked 27 October 2026, not WebJi® plans |
The ₹499 starting price is WebJi®'s published VPS rate; checkout shows the final figure for your chosen size before you pay.
What server does CyberPanel need?
CyberPanel's install guide asks for a fresh server with at least 1,024 MB RAM and 10 GB disk, on Ubuntu, AlmaLinux or CloudLinux. Treat those as the floor for the panel alone; mail, Redis and several WordPress sites need more memory, which is why sizing matters more than the panel choice.
- Operating systems listed: Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04 and 22.04; AlmaLinux 8 and 9; CloudLinux 8 (guide last updated June 2024, so check the current list for newer releases).
- Fresh install: the OS must be clean, with no other panel or web server already present.
- Root access: the installer must run as root; a WebJi® VPS includes root.
WebJi® VPS images include Ubuntu and AlmaLinux, the two families CyberPanel supports best; Ubuntu VPS hosting explains that option.
CyberPanel vs cPanel and Plesk on a VPS
Choose CyberPanel to avoid licence fees and get OpenLiteSpeed caching; choose cPanel for the largest tutorial ecosystem and reseller tooling; choose Plesk if you need Windows or a WordPress Toolkit. No panel makes a slow application fast on its own; PHP version, caching and server size matter more.
| Panel | Licence | Web server | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| CyberPanel | Free (OpenLiteSpeed edition) | OpenLiteSpeed | WordPress on a budget VPS |
| cPanel/WHM | Paid monthly | Apache, or LiteSpeed with a licence | Agencies and resellers used to WHM |
| Plesk | Paid monthly | Nginx + Apache on Linux; IIS on Windows | Mixed Linux/Windows estates |
For the web-server side of the decision, LiteSpeed vs Apache covers the caching and .htaccess differences, and LiteSpeed hosting is the shared alternative if you do not want to manage a VPS at all.
How do you install CyberPanel and launch a WordPress site?
Log in to the VPS as root, update packages, run the official installer, then create the website, install WordPress and issue SSL from the panel. CyberPanel says the installer finishes in about 5–10 minutes on a typical server.
sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)- Choose OpenLiteSpeed (free) or LiteSpeed Enterprise (licence key) when prompted.
- Accept Full Service to get PowerDNS, Postfix and Pure-FTPd; replace the default admin password with a strong one.
- Open the panel, create the website and pick its PHP version.
- Point the domain's A record at the VPS, then run the WordPress application installer.
- Issue the certificate once DNS resolves, and add mailboxes after the MX record points to the server.

Frequently asked questions
Is CyberPanel really free?
The panel with OpenLiteSpeed is free for unlimited domains. The VPS it runs on is not, and LiteSpeed Enterprise needs a paid licence for more than one domain. Your monthly bill at WebJi® is the VPS, from ₹499 before 18% GST.
Can I move cPanel sites to CyberPanel?
Yes. CyberPanel can import cPanel backup files, although email, cron jobs and custom .htaccess rules should be checked after the move. Plan a test run on a staging domain before switching DNS for a live business site.
Does OpenLiteSpeed read .htaccess files?
Only partly. OpenLiteSpeed reads rewrite rules but does not apply every Apache directive, and changes may need a web-server restart. WordPress permalinks work normally; complex legacy .htaccess files deserve a test first.
Which port does the CyberPanel login use?
The panel listens on port 8090 by default, so you log in at https://your-server-ip:8090. Keep that port open in the firewall, or restrict it to your own IP address for better security.
Is CyberPanel suitable for an agency hosting 20 client sites?
It can be, on a VPS sized for the load, and CyberPanel supports separate users and packages. Agencies that resell hosting with per-client billing usually find cPanel/WHM or reseller hosting simpler to operate.
