Features
Everything you need to run a server
Reqad bundles the whole hosting stack into one clean, fast dashboard - without the weight or licensing of a commercial panel.
Hosting accounts
A single-admin dashboard built for one VPS with many domains.
- One hosting account per domain, with disk usage and status
- Add DNS and a Let's Encrypt certificate at creation time
- Search and pagination across accounts and email
- Per-account PHP version and handler (PHP-FPM / mod_php)
Migration from cPanel
Move to Reqad without re-building everything by hand.
- Guided transfer wizard under Backup → Transfer
- Tests SSH and queries whmapi1 for domains, PHP and databases
- Pick domains and databases to bring over
- Built on the same stack - nginx, PHP-FPM, MariaDB, exim/dovecot
Integrated email
A complete mail stack, configured per domain.
- exim + dovecot with Roundcube webmail
- SpamAssassin filtering
- Email settings checker: SPF, DKIM and DMARC
- Forwarders and autoresponders
- SNI certificates for secure IMAP/SMTP
WordPress Toolkit
Install, speed up, secure and manage every WordPress site from one page per site.
- One-click WordPress install, with sites in subfolders detected automatically
- A page per site: WordPress version flagged Latest, Outdated or Insecure, PHP version, active theme, plugins with pending updates, disk usage and SSL status, next to a screenshot of the home page
- Log in to wp-admin as an administrator without a password - even when the login page has been moved
- Performance switches applied live: nginx page cache, a real system cron instead of WP-Cron, search engine indexing on/off for staging copies, and maintenance mode with HTTP 503
- Optimized stack: full-page FastCGI cache in nginx - logged-in users, cart, checkout and wp-admin are never cached - with OPcache and APCu in PHP-FPM
- Reqad Cache Purger companion plugin - installed automatically when you enable the nginx cache, so the page cache clears itself whenever content changes (GitHub, WordPress.org)
- Security tab with 17 hardening measures: block xmlrpc.php, wp-config.php, sensitive files and author scans, no PHP in uploads, security headers, hidden login URL, fresh salts and tight file permissions
- Restrict wp-login.php and core updates to your own IPs
- Google PageSpeed scores for mobile and desktop, with FCP, LCP, TBT, CLS and Speed Index
- Custom 403/404/5xx error pages that do not name the web server
- Wordfence CLI malware scanning and per-site PHP version control
