# The WebGee Cloud Console
Source: https://docs.webgee.com/en/servers/cloud-console







The **Cloud Console** at [console.webgee.cloud](https://console.webgee.cloud) is
where you manage a WebGee cloud server: power state, operating system, backups,
networking, SSH keys and console access. Applies to all VPS and dedicated
servers.

## Two places, different jobs [#two-places-different-jobs]

There are two interfaces, and knowing which does what saves time:

|                                     | Client area (`my.webgee.com`) | Cloud Console (`console.webgee.cloud`) |
| ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Billing, renewals, cancellation     | Yes                           | No                                     |
| Live resource usage                 | Summary                       | Full detail and history                |
| Power controls                      | Yes                           | Yes                                    |
| Rebuild the OS                      | Yes                           | Yes                                    |
| Rescue mode, boot media, boot order | No                            | Yes                                    |
| Reverse DNS, DNS resolvers          | No                            | Yes                                    |
| Backups and schedules               | Yes                           | Yes                                    |
| Sharing access with someone else    | No                            | Yes                                    |

Everyday tasks are available in both. Anything involving the server's
configuration rather than your account lives in the Cloud Console.

## Sign in [#sign-in]

**From the client area**, which is the easier route — you are signed in
automatically:

1. Sign in to [my.webgee.com](https://my.webgee.com).
2. Go to **Services** and select your server.
3. Select **Open Cloud Console**.

**Directly**, at [console.webgee.cloud](https://console.webgee.cloud), using your
client area email address and password.

<Callout type="info">
  If **Open Cloud Console** does not work — usually a popup blocker — use the
  **Open in this window** link beneath it, or sign in directly. If your password
  is not accepted, select **Reset Credentials** on the client area page.
</Callout>

## The dashboard [#the-dashboard]

* **Account** — two-factor status, last login and timezone. Turn on two-factor
  authentication if it shows `OFF`; this console can rebuild and destroy servers.
* **Notifications** — service messages relating to your servers.
* **Traffic Consumption** — inbound, outbound and total, weekly and monthly.
* **Recent Servers** / **Bookmarked Servers** — select **Manage** on a server to
  open it. Bookmark the ones you use often.
* **Recently Completed Tasks** — every action taken on your servers, with
  duration and outcome. This is where to look when something did not appear to
  work.
