NES Africa gives all accounts access to the leading control panel software on the market: cPanel. This powerful package puts control of your entire site at your finger tips. Making it easy to manage your hosting account from creating email accounts, setting up subdomains, MySQL databases, viewing your web statistics and more.
We can easily migrate your website over to our servers if you are currently hosting with another provider. If your site currently runs on a cPanel control panel, we can take a full backup and simply restore this on our systems, this would be free. If your site runs on a custom or other control panel we can still help. You will need to contact us after placing your order or include exising cPanel login details in the order notes. We can also handle the migration of your domain names over to our management which will ensure minimal downtime during the transfer process. Please contact us if you would like to discuss a transfer over to NES Africa.
