cPanel/Plesk Alternative?

[kunnu]

Hello,

We decided to switch from cPanel, I thought Plesk is good alternative but both are owned by same company and cPanel is no longer trusted.

Can you suggest good alternative to cPanel?


Thanks.

Plesk is still great, the other alternative is DirectAdmin but the issue is that control panel is so dated, never was popular till now! if you required to change the settings with DA you need to use more SSH instead of control panel, in my opinion if I do use more SSH (I don't have any issues to use SSH) but what the point to pay for GUI?

CWP is free,
for commercial user, there is no other than cpanel/plesk/directadmin, maybe you can try vestcp

DA is the best option right now. Not only it has better gui than others but because of its enterprise level support. You can also go to cyberpanel and Hysteria panel both have good user interface but in the end DA is premium in comparison to them (ofcourse not as premium as cpanel). I am also experimenting with DA. It is taking time but lets face it we have to do something if we want to get rid of cpanel black mailing.

A lot of users are switching to DirectAdmin and CWP panel after the sudden price increase in cPanel. A choice can be put on the customers they can stay on the servers they are on and have a price increase for using cPanel, Or they can move to one of the alternates.

IspConfig is pretty powerful and open source (free). We are looking at setting up some production servers with it for our shared plans and leaving cPanel altogether in the future.

ISPConfig Hosting Control Panel

I have made a list of control panels for web hosting. If any of the panels is missing let me know or other information that might be useful for others.

Directadmin is the best alternative to cPanel/Plesk. It is easy to use and affordable. Although it has less features than the other two but it wouldn't be a problem if you know how to use SSH.

Hello,

Check this Control panel ISPmanager, it's the best analogue of cPanel or Plesk.

I like the Debian fork of VestaCP the most. VestaCP used to be popular until its owner started to neglect necessary maintenance and the panel became known for being a security risk, however one of the Admin of VestaCP who is administrating a number of Debian servers, decided to share his fork at myvestacp. I used to use CentOS so then had to change to Debian, which after learning how nice and streamlined it is in comparison with chaotic and voluminous CentOS was a change for the better.

One of the stable alternative is DA and in free try Cyberpanel.

Directadmin is a superior alternative to cPanel/Plesk. It's simple to use and economical.

I use Directadmin for hosting a few personal projects, always found their support to be amazing and helpful too as when I used cPanel you can email them with an issue and simply get told "not an issue with cPanel" but directadmin will either fix it for you or at the very least point you in the right direction to get everything solved without wasting hours going back and forth between software vendors.
