I know theres a bunch different software out there but im looking for something that is for a single server that I can add a preset hosting package, and that will add ftp accounts, email accounts ect, and I would like it to do my billing as well. Is there something like this?

There are hundreds of threads on this....

On our own Servers we use Ensim 3.5 Pro because for us, it's what works with our business and our clients like it.

On our Leased Server, we use Cpanel and WHM which our clients hate.

It comes down to finding one that works for you. Ensim, Plesk, Helm, DirectAdmin and CPanel offer either demo's or trial versions of the software to try. We spent over a month trying different packages and interacting with the companies and found Ensim to be our preferred choice.

The biggest key to remember is that you have to support it and know how to support it should it break, that's why stability should be your number one deciding factor. Your customers count on you to provide them a level of service and ease of use through your control panel and nothing could be worse than shrugging your shoulders when it breaks.

As for Billing, you may want to look towards ModernBill, Clientexec and a few others. Again, it comes down to what will work for yor company, not just what everyone is using.

Cheers! :)
