cPanel VPS or RunCloud + Vultr + cPanel shared hosting

Hi, I have a problem, I cannot decide what to use.

I develop apps in Laravel, and sell them on CodeCanyon. I also have some scripts running (not in Laravel) for application uploads, customer support and so on.

I need to host demo versions of my applications.

I alsk need to host email.

Now, is it better to use:

cPanel VPS

I can install Composer
I have root and ssh access
I can install supervisord (still dont know how)
friendly panel to manage server
host non Laravel apps
DNS editor and all other features that come with cPanel and VPS

Is cPanel VPS good for Laravel hosting?

RunCloud + Vultr + cpanel Shared Hosting

I have RunCloud and can have git push to deploy
panel optimised, does not use much RAM as cPanel
easier to work with Laravel applications
only services I need in panel
another shared cPanel account to host email and non Laravel apps

So what is better, all on one place using VPS or separated but with better user experience using RunCloud + VULTR

Price is equal ~20$. Lowest packages, until more resources needed.

I would suggest you use Laravel Forge for Laravel applications and ditch cPanel altogether. You will increase your performance as the admin panel is separate from your server. It will optimize your servers for Laravel hosting.

then just use cPanel for other stuff you may use, such as wordpress sites, etc.
