I like cPanel and WHm because of it's ease of use.

I think it is the best.

+1 to cPanel/WHM. It is really good. It makes managing servers so much easier.

The nice thing is that we do have a choice. Everyone thinks a little different, so what appeals to one person doesn't appeal to another and vice versa. Both Plesk and cPanel have their Pros and cons. I do think that cPanel for the end user offers advantages over Plesk since to my knowledge Plesk does not offer the ability of addon domains. As far as the backend for root, Plesk is more intuitive even though it is lacking in functionality compared to WHM. As I have been using WHM more I like what it does compared to Plesk even though Plesk is a bit easier to use. And that's only my humble opinion, your opinion is valuable also.

I don't see Plesk or DirectAdmin's as contenders in the control panel market. The biggest turn off to Plesk is their licensing scheme. It reads as if they are punishing the host for being popular or growing, whereas cPanel offers flat rates no matter how many clients you have.

I've looked at DirectAdmin but it just doesn't seem as robust as cPanel. All three products have their place, but I don't see cPanel being knocked off its perch any time soon unless some of these others really refine themselves and polish the interface.

Just my
