If your using a RAQ or provide raq hosting, I would like to see who your using and what type of plan you have. Also post any thoughts on your RAQ, I have used Plesk and cpanel in the past and don't require a lot in the control panel so I figured a RAQ might be nice.



If your using a raq, who do you host with, and general details of your plan. Is my general question. Of course if you feel like I shoudl stay away from someone feel free to post it without bashing a host too bad.

I'm not entirely convinced you'd like a RaQ coming from a cpanle/plesk server. Have you used one before? Even as a user? There is a demo on the Cobalt site you might want to look at. I personally have no problems with them, but I do wonder if you'd like it.

Some things are easier with the RaQs (like setting up accounts is slightly less confusing and a bit quicker IMHO), and the cp is a bit more intuitive for both the server admin and the users -errrr... somewhat more intuitive. I've had users say they thought it had too many features and it was too complicated, but I really don't agree with that. Yes, what do your users know anyhow, heh.

Overall, they serve up a site pretty fine, you probably realize they aren't dual PVII's (they do make those right?) monsters...

Kinda like the VW Beetle of servers. Not all that powerful, but generally reliable, and they all leak oil.
