Plesk vs cPanel

    I'm more comfortable with cPanel, but am wondering what peoples' thoughts are, for or against, either.

    Plesk never grew on me. Maybe I'm missing out.

    My first choice is also cPanel. It is easy to use.

    i prefer Cpanel because EVERY billing system out their supports it (WHMCS, Ipanel, WHMautoPilot, ) those are the major one anyways, and it just works.. no matter what, its decent software all around, and the Reseller options are nice, Zamfoo and somthing else. cant remeber right now lol. so Cpanel wins in that aspect, and everyone know how to use it.

    cPanel. Way better functionality, then again it's what I'm most comfortable with.

    plesk is cheap cp and have less feature compare to cpanel. Cpanel is expensive but easy to use.

    i was fedup with my plesk hosting .. so now i get rid of that.

    as cpanel is used by the majority of web-hosts you can easily move your sites from one host to other by using the whm site copy feature

    Plesk development is pretty slow.

    My vote goes to cPanel.

    Im new in this world of hosting and im using Cpanel and it is really good, easy to use. Have a friendly interface. Is easy to creat the emails acount, the ftp acounts, and have the disk manager and file manager to manage your file. Also you can install a virtual hard drive that made you able to manage your virtual space like another unit in your pc. It function like a map drive in the network. :)

    Hi guys,

    As I have worked on both control panels. Thoug to be honest i found cPanel easier than plesk. In cPanel server, you can solve any problem in few minutes or if you google your issue, you will get number of solution.

    if you are looking for something easy to use go with cPanel,

    Plesk is also great and more professional, but its not easy to use...
