panelOwl is a self-hosted web hosting control panel for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, built for small and efficient hosting companies that are leaving cPanel. It installs in five minutes with one command on a fresh server and issues a free 14-day trial licence on the spot. For clients: a panel with one tile per task (domains, DNS, email, files, databases, PHP, backups, SSH/SFTP, cron, logs), plain words instead of state codes, and server-rendered pages with no JavaScript framework. For admins: standard Ubuntu packages instead of a patched stack (Apache, PHP-FPM, MariaDB, Postfix, Dovecot, Rspamd), per-account resource limits with cgroups, nightly backups, Let's Encrypt and bought certificates, signed updates installed with one confirmation, and an audited helper daemon so the web panel never runs as root. Moving from cPanel is one command: the full account backup comes back with its domains, files, mailboxes, databases, forwarders, cron jobs and passwords. An optional AI assistant runs on your own model key, uses only the panel's own tools, and asks before it changes anything. Pricing: $34.95 per month per server, unlimited hosting accounts, cancel any time. Free installation by the panelOwl team on request.
