    The config is:
    RAM - 4 GB
    Disk Space - 150 GB RAID
    Bandwidth - 4000 GB

    Cost is $88/year from ServerMania. Thanks! :D

    For single account I'd recommend webuzo panel. You can also check out DirectAdmin. Nice and lightweight panel.

    By the way, if you prefer a commercial panel (advantages are usually more frequent updates and faster bug/security fixes), you should have a look at http://www.liveconfig.com/en/. It's still somewhat new, but I've been using it for several eCommerce servers great results. It's really light-weight, easy to understand/manage and offers nice features like NGINX as a reverse proxy infront of Apache out of the box (with cPanel you need additional plugins for that), the licenses are very afforable and I also like the fact a lot that it keeps manual config changes and doesn't overwrite them, like cPanel and Plesk does (although this might be more interesting to sysadmins than to the end users).

    Looks like all the good alternatives like zPanel, Webuzo have already been suggested.

    If you are looking for something paid, Plex would be my second choice after cPanel and DirectAdming would be my third.

    If you are looking for something free, other than the things that have already been mentioned like zPanel, Webuzo, Kloxo-MR, you can use VestaCP http://vestacp.com/ which is free, open source and actively developed. I have been using this on one of my production boxes and it runs stable and does not have a lot of unnecessary bloated features like Kloxo.

    Since paid panels usually have faster updates, better security and better support, if you are going to be hosting something important i would recommend getting something paid. If its for a personal website or something less important go for one of the free options. Good luck
