Updated: 28 September 2026 · Applies to: Magento Open Source 2.4

Softaculous in cPanel lists Magento among its one-click apps. Before you install it, check the requirements: current Magento (Adobe Commerce open source 2.4) needs a search engine service (OpenSearch), a supported PHP version, and more memory and CPU than a typical shared hosting account provides.

Install with Softaculous

  1. Log in to cPanel (for example at https://yourdomain.com:2083, or from the Ucartz client area).
  2. Open Softaculous Apps Installer and search for Magento.
  3. Click Install, choose the domain and folder, and fill in the store and admin details, including the search engine host if asked.
  4. Click Install.

Note: If the installer reports that OpenSearch is not available, your plan cannot run Magento. For an online store, we recommend a VPS, where Magento, OpenSearch and Redis can run with enough resources; our engineers can set it up for you. For small shops on shared hosting, WooCommerce is a lighter alternative.
