Visit Vesta Control Panel

Vesta Control Panel is an open source hosting control panel licensed under GPLv3 that centralizes server and site administration. It addresses the need to manage websites, DNS records, mail, databases, backups, and related services from a single web interface, with a CLI available for terminal-based control.

Its modules cover User, Web, DNS, E-Mail, Databases (MySQL and PostgreSQL via phpMyAdmin), CRON, Backups, Packages, IP, Graphs, Statistics, Log, Updates, Firewall, File Manager, and Server management. It includes Let's Encrypt integration for SSL/TLS certificates, SSH and FTP user management, a File Manager with drag-and-drop upload and syntax highlighting, cron job scheduling, role-based user management (Admin, Site Manager, User), firewall rules, and monitoring of CPU, memory, and disk usage. The web interface supports 26 languages and regions. A WAF and container support are listed as coming soon with Vesta 2.0.

Vesta is aimed at developers, site managers, and hosting businesses. Core functionality is free under GPL, with commercial plugins available; SFTP Chroot and File Manager are offered at no cost, while a Payments & Billing plugin is listed as coming soon. Plugin licenses are IP-based and limited to one per installation, and special licensing options exist for hosting companies.
