What is WHM? [Important| Revised 2019]

There are basically two types of users who could access WHM either you are a reseller or you are Root.

In the case of Reseller, you get WHM to host multiples of cPanel accounts. You can create multiple cPanel accounts as per the plans you have purchased. In WHM(Reseller) you get limited powers as compared to WHM(Root).

On the other hand, if you have access to WHM(root) then one thing you need to understand is that you are the owner of the server and can manage things as an administrator with ultimate power. You get the authority to provide shared hosting, reseller hosting, VPS to end-users. You also get many other features with WHM like installation/Uninstallation of software and adding plugins as per your need. You can also create Multiples of Reseller and Master Reseller accounts as per norms.

Whereas cPanel is your website’s control panel and allows you to do tasks such as edit files, create email addresses, and set up databases. The cPanel accounts themselves are managed by Web Host Manager, commonly referred to as WHM. WHM access is not available in Shared Hosting.

Hence we can say that Web Host Manager, or WHM, is a powerful interface that allows administrative access to the back end of cPanel.
