Familiar Modules
Common Workflows Similarities
Same architecture and layout
Accounts, domains, email, databases, SSL, backups, and cron live where hosting customers expect them
Admin / customer split
PCAdmin and PCUser preserve the operator and customer separation providers rely on for support and security
Terminal-first option
Operator actions can have PCCLI counterparts with the same permissions and audit trail
Evaluation Path
Before Migration Approach
1. Stand Up A Test Server
One command on a fresh Linux-based server VM gives you the full platform, including panels, CLI, API, and operational records
2. Move One Real Site
Bring over a single account, files, database, DNS, email, and SSL, then run it side by side with production
3. Compare Operations
Walk your support, integration, and account workflows in PCAdmin, then check the audit log to see every step recorded
One Command Installation
One command on a fresh Linux-based server gives you the full platform to compare hands-on
