Where each falls short
The honest trade-offs — what you give up with each, versus the proprietary tools they replace.
1Panel
- More of a server/hosting control panel than a git-push PaaS; no native buildpack or git-deploy pipeline.
- No horizontal autoscaling or clustering across nodes.
- Documentation and community are strongest in Chinese; English resources lag.
- No managed cloud option or edge/CDN.
Easypanel
- No multi-server / cluster support in the community edition
- Build caching and CI integration require manual setup
- Less mature than Coolify with a smaller plugin ecosystem
Bottom line
Choose Easypanel if you want the lower-effort setup; choose 1Panel for the larger community and ecosystem. 1Panel has seen more recent development. Open each guide below for deploy steps and the full feature gap.
