 * What is the purpose of this plugin if it require cPanel, and cPanel already provides
   a fully automated AutoSSL system that takes care of every action and generally
   is enabled by most if not all providers now?

   Let’s Encrypt Itself

 * Hello [@scarecr0w12](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scarecr0w12/)
 * The plugin is targeted toward non-technical users who want to install the SSL
   certificate via WordPress and automatically re-direct http to https.
 * GoDaddy, for example, does not support LetsEncrypt and a lot of our users want
   free SSL certificate via LetsEncrypt, that’s the need we are trying to cater 
   to.
 * I hope I have answered your questions, feel free to reply or ask more questions.
