Why now

The control panel market is broken. You've been paying for it.

Three patterns hosts live with every day—priced in, locked in, and explained away as "how it is."

  • 01

    cPanel raised prices 400% in 2019. Then again.

    Every server you add costs more. Every account costs more. You're not growing your margin - you're growing their revenue.

  • 02

    Vendor lock-in disguised as stability.

    Migrating away means touching every single customer account. So you stay. And they know it.

  • 03

    UI designed in 2003, still running in 2026.

    Your customers open a ticket every time they need to change a DNS record. That's your support cost, not theirs.

cPanel works. DirectAdmin works. But they were built for a different era.

We're not here to trash the competition. They've powered the internet for 20 years and that's real. But the pricing model, the architecture, and the UX haven't kept up.

Integrations

Plugs into the stack you already run.

Billing, backups, mail delivery, security — adminbolt is built to sit alongside the tools hosting providers depend on, not replace your whole toolchain overnight.

Partner program

Partner & Reseller Program

Grow your hosting business. We'll power the infrastructure. Join hosting companies already reselling Adminbolt. Get wholesale pricing, direct access to the team, and a seat at the table when we decide what to build next.

How partnering works

  1. Step 1

    Wholesale Pricing

    Volume discounts start at 5 servers. The more you manage, the less you pay per server. No per-account fees, no surprises as you scale.

  2. Step 2

    Dedicated Technical Support

    Partners get direct access to our engineering team, not a ticket queue. When something breaks in production, you're not waiting in line.

  3. Step 3

    Shape the Roadmap

    Tell us what to build. Partner feedback directly influences our development priorities. You're not a customer, you're a stakeholder.
