ok, im a web developer myself. I'm currently building a control panel like plesk,ensim,whatever. I was just wondering what you people thought feature wise. Keep in mind that this should be around $99 for a single server license. Is that to expensive? My business motto has always been sell cheap, sell large. All input is greatly appreciated.

Good price. And, that's low.. Plesk costs upwards of $600, and Ensim $199.

well i dont know why people go off payign that much for plesk. first of all its kinda confusing for me the linux n00b and second it doesn't have a file manager. Now ensim on the other hand is a bit better deal and I like them alot though I have found problems with it.

PSA 5.0 has a file manager.

If you didn't know that, then you haven't used PSA 5.0, in which case you wouldn't know if it sucks or not. :)

I don't see what is confusing about it. It is a very straight forward control panel, even for my newbie users.

Also if you are a linux n00b then how do you expect to make a control panel yourself, it takes more then just web dev knowledge.
