Hi all there,

I am from a newly established hosting firm. Please let me know about WHM & ModernBill.

I prefer ModernBill more than WHM. We will use cPanel at our server. Shall we use cPanel/WHM + ModernBill or which one is better?

Can I combine that three to use?

I am sorry if my question is so lame.

Sincerely,
Samuel

Cpanel and WHM is a packaged software. Cpanel for the customers, WHM for you to "manage" the server itself. You will not get Cpanel without WHM.

Modernbill is a billing solution which is able to create accounts on a Cpanel/WHM server.

Oh thanks for enlightning me Walter :).

are you sure you didnt get whm mixed up with whmap (whmautopilot)

hmm yes I got mixed up.. Which one is better? ModernBill or WHMAutopilot?

That depends on what type of learning curve you're comfortable with.

WHM-AP is very easy to setup and configure; simply a straightforward package all the way around.

Modernbill is a bit trickier to configure (we never had problems installing it, though) as there are a lot more options, but the extra options give you greater flexibility to have your billing software do what you like. (I especially like the "clone package" feature :D).

We started out with WHM-AP and are slowly migrating to Modernbill as it has more flexibility and will grow better with our company.

To borrow a phrase - there is no "best" software. There's only the software that's best for you :D ;)

Thanks for your advise P-nut :)

WHMap is easy! MB is a bit complicated. which fits you, go for it.

For expanding business MB is better

ModernBill works fine for us

Is ModernBill difficult to install/configure/setup?

Not at all, and they can even install it for you for about $49 I think.
The setup is a long process because there are so many options and modules.
It is a great program.
