Hello,

I currently am with a reseller, this is my first month, and before the month is over I'm just looking around at some other hosting companies. My question is when comparing WHM and Plesk's Reseller panel, which one would really be a better choice? For exmaple, I was looking at the plans on www.acunett.com with a plesk panel, and what they offer seems to me like a hosting company that does reselling with WHM would never do (50GB transfer/month for $20/mo). I am currently with a reseller which is $40/mo and 12GB/bandwidth. Also I've noticed some of the very low-cost hosting sites I've been too offer Plesk as thier control panel. Any feedback appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan

I personally think its a matter of preference. Some clients prefer WHM/CPanel, some prefer Plesk. The price of a hosting package shouldn't depend on the control panel software, though.

AcuNett.com. They are relatively new but their reseller package seems attractive enough. I think one reason they are able to offer so much bandwidth is because they are with RackShack.

Have you had any first hand experience with them?

The service seems great so far, got the control panel working and all, support is super, havn't really got into the actual hosting yet. I think I'll want custom nameservers, they say $5/month extra off thier very low-cost plans.
