CyberPanel vs CyberPanel Ent

CyberPanel comes with OpenLiteSpeed and is completely free for an unlimited number of domains and worker processes.
CyberPanel Ent comes with LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise and it is free for 1 domain. If you need more than 1 domain, you can view our pricing page 1.5k. The CyberPanel license includes the price of your LiteSpeed Enterprise license.

Installing CyberPanel

Step 1: Connect to your server via SSH

The installation of CyberPanel is quite simple. First, log into your server via SSH as the root user (sudo will not work). You can get the login details from your web host.

Step 2: Update packages

For Ubuntu: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
For CentOS/Alma/Rocky:

sudo yum check-update
sudo yum update

Step 2: Run the installation script

Run the following command. It will initiate the automated installation script, which will prompt you for a few decisions about which version of LiteSpeed and which add-ons you would like to install.

sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)

If, for some reason, you are not able to log in as root, you can use this command

sudo su - -c "sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)"

Step 3: Select the version of LiteSpeed that you would like to use

Select which version of LiteSpeed to install. If you select LiteSpeed Enterprise, please ensure that you have obtained a license key first. It is free for 1 domain, but you still need to obtain the key. Visit the pricing table 1.5k to decide your desired plan.
