It is best suited for VPS and Dedicated servers because it is user-friendly. Plesk manages a range of systems and activities across one or more servers.

What is the difference between cPanel and Plesk?

[Blake Acy]

I know one difference.
The Plesk migrator tool is used for Plesk migration, whereas the WHM cPanel transfer tool is used for cPanel migration. It's not possible to do it alone with cPanel.

For Plesk password protection can be used to protect sensitive data in backups. Functionality for automated treatment and recovery to fix technical issues without the need for expert assistance.
And for cPanel Websites can be redirected to HTTPS with a single click, and Node.js applications can be built.
