Control Panels for managing web hosting accounts

Hi everyone,

I guess that most of us have been using cPanel both on personal and server level as it is the most popular hosting automation panel in the industry. However, there are a number of other similar software automation apps.

My questions is -Which one of them have you used and if you are provider, do you offer services based on any other control panel, different from cPanel?

I have a personal server that i use Centos Web Panel as it is free and you can migrate accounts too and from cpanel

We like DirectAdmin.

It's cheaper, faster and easier to use than C'Panel

We use Plesk. The older versions weren't great but starting with 11.5 we've been super happy with it.

I've messed with cPanel and DirectAdmin a bit and found cPanel easier to use just because I have more experience with it.

Plesk used to be a huge pain but I hear it's improved - I haven't tried it recently though.

I've dealt with some proprietary control panels, but for now, at least, I'm sticking with cPanel.

We have used cPanel, Plesk and VestaCP. If you are looking for a free control panel then we would recommend VestaCP.
