We built the panel that runs our own servers — and we sell it

Nelcbyte Technologies is the company behind NelcPanel. We built it to run our own hosting business, and we sell it to the general public — buy a license and install it on any Ubuntu 26.04 server you own or rent.

Our story

Why we built NelcPanel

The story started with a simple frustration. Running a hosting business means facing the same fork in the road: pay premium licensing fees forever for a proprietary panel, or glue together a patchwork of scripts, cron jobs and half-finished tools. Neither felt right.

So we built our own. NelcPanel started as an internal tool to run a handful of servers — and it still does. Today it powers every Nelcbyte server, and because we rely on it ourselves, we sell it to the public too: order a license and run it on your own hardware, wherever it is.

Own your stack

No black boxes, no forced upgrades, no vendor lock-in. NelcPanel runs on mature open-source software and stores nothing in proprietary formats.

Fair, simple pricing

Buy a NelcPanel license with one transparent price and choose your term — 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months or lifetime. No per-account fees, no licence surcharges, no premium tiers that gate basic features.

Security first

Encryption at rest, restricted sudo surfaces, hardened permissions and automatic signing built in — secure by default, not by checklist.

Fast, always

Clean, dependency-free HTML, CSS and JS. The panel feels instant because it is — no heavy front-end frameworks in sight.

Open by default

Public repository, documented source, real installer scripts. You can read every line that runs on your server before it ever touches it.

Built for operators

Every feature ships because an operator needed it — from the Billing API to the in-browser terminal to mail deliverability tooling.

The software behind Nelcbyte

One panel, three faces

NelcPanel

The end-user control panel every hosting client gets. File manager, domains, email, DNS, databases, FTP, SSL, backups and analytics — on every plan.

NelcWHM

The admin and reseller panel that ships with every NelcPanel license. Account provisioning, packages, service management, server terminal, mail tracking and SSL automation.

Billing API v1

REST provisioning for WHMCS, Blesta, ClientExec or custom billing — create, suspend, terminate, upgrade and one-time-login accounts.

The journey

From internal tool to software anyone can buy

The beginning

An internal tool for running our own servers

NelcPanel begins life as a custom admin interface to provision and manage hosting accounts on Ubuntu servers, born from frustration with the status quo.

Early days

The full stack comes together

Postfix, Dovecot, PowerDNS, Pure-FTPd and phpMyAdmin are wired into the panel. Email deliverability — SPF, DKIM, DMARC — becomes a first-class feature, not an afterthought.

Growing up

NelcWHM and the Billing API

Reseller features arrive: packages, suspend/terminate workflows, a service manager, an in-browser terminal and a documented REST API for billing automation.

Today

Sold to the general public

NelcPanel runs every Nelcbyte server on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS with PHP 8.5, multi-version PHP and one-click WordPress — and you can buy a license to run it on any server you own. The source is public on GitHub, by design.

What powers NelcPanel
