For anyone that has used both GUIs, which do you prefer?

We're considering adding a "white box" with Plesk as an option and would like any feedback that anyone might want to post on the Plesk interface.

Thanks in advance,

I would strongly consider Plesk, Cobalts are known too much for their limitablity and buggyness....

Id be quite surprised if anyone found the cobalt interface superior to Plesk :)

True, if you enjoy comparing apples to oranges. It is like this - you have a lawn tractor and a BMW. What controls do you like more? You would be stupid to say the tractors. Now try putting BMW controls on a tractor - it doesn't work.

Cobalt is an *appliance*, with everything built in and included. Nice and easy; plug and play. Plesk makes *servers* easy to manage. You are comparing a hardware based solution to software based.

Put Plesk on a Cobalt, and no contest. Cobalt wins.

Cobalts are ALOT more expensive and they are alot more error-prone and cobalt charges a TON to fix problems. THey once released a bad update and were CHARGING for info on how to uninstall it :)
