  1. [FEATURED] The reality is that you probably shouldn't talk...

    The reality is that you probably shouldn't talk in absolutes. We've received a ton of comments from people that a) they like it quite a bit and b) they prefer it over cpanel.




    Never, eh?...
  2. [FEATURED] It kind of is if they're sending these notices...

    It kind of is if they're sending these notices indiscriminately and collect levied tax from people who don't have to pay it but don't know/don't investigate it.

    In other news, I did receive a...

    It has, hasn't it? Thanks, and the vey same to you.




    It wouldn't surprise me if they had - the user was rather hot. But thanks to the power of Google....

    "I got an email today from...
  4. [FEATURED] cPanel sales tax notice

    I hunted around and can't find anything on this - with the sole exception of a thread at the cPanel forums that apparently was deleted - so I'm posting it here.


    Hello Annette,

    Based on your...

    Sorry, that second part was actually for someone on thelast page. Just lost their nameinthe quote process.

    I'm almost positive someone will continue to run older versions of it, just as they will...

    They haven't listened to thispoint, and you think that's going to change now? Doubtful.



    No, it is not illegal. I really wish people would get this out of their heads. There is nothing at all...

    I was just discussing the collateral damage WHMCS is doing with one of my people today.



    Not all of them...but some will certainly be moving on from WHMCS.
  8. [FEATURED] This sort of thing is almost always misleading....

    This sort of thing is almost always misleading. Legal weasels are paid well to tiptoe on a line for instances just like this. Anyboy who didn't know cpanel had a major stake in WHMCS and didn't see...
  9. [FEATURED] If it's just about clients, sure they can. if you...

    If it's just about clients, sure they can. if you have an owned license (or multiples, as we do), the software isn't going to cut off at 5001 clients (for instance) and refuse to operate. And that...
  10. [FEATURED] They'll point right to your (presumably out of...

    They'll point right to your (presumably out of date) install and rightfully so.



    So you are not a lawyer, have not consulted one, and have no dog in this fight. Got it.

    Look, I get that this...

    It absolutely is capitalism. That's what the C inVC stands for. You may not like it - I don't - but companies exst to make money. Some of them just seemto be intent on doing it the dumbest way...

    I'm incredibly irritated with this, although I understand this is what VCs do, and why they're evil, for the most part.

    When we grandfather people in for their hosting plans, and tell them it's...

    I have never used plesk, so cannot comment on that. We started with cpanel not terribly long after Nick got going (switching from Alabanza - good call, past me!), so we've been through its growing...

    And if Pepsi changed their recipe to be more like Coca-Cola, as many Coke drinkers want, they would make bank.




    Fairly sure they meant "of" not "if".



    Lucky you.
  15. [FEATURED] Good to know. However, having admin experience,...

    Good to know. However, having admin experience, and moving people from the cpanel world, I really prefer to run them as we want to/need to. It's one of the reasons we had to turn off cpanel...

    I've not looked at the file manager much lately (the few people who wanted/needed it for editing were months ago, so...). The subdomain thing I'll check out, since we're ramping up again for...
  17. [FEATURED] Not hard at all. We move, update the cpanel-based...

    Not hard at all. We move, update the cpanel-based cluster. If the user creates a subdomain, adds a domain using the same cpanel-based nameservers, we use that opportunity to get them to change the...

    On this point, yes, it is possible to change user passwords from the admin level.



    I agree their backup system could be a lot more robust, but cpanel's backup system isn't exactly without its...

    OK, so....what's the point? Companies buy other companies all the time and shutter them. Oakley bought plesk before cpanel, and plesk is still here. cpanel is a cash cow enough that they thought...
  20. [FEATURED] It isn't always bad, no - someone doing DNS only,...

    It isn't always bad, no - someone doing DNS only, or maybe a shingle and a forwarder, sure. But this is more about generic shared hosting - a mix of accounts, some larger, some smaller, with varying...
  21. [FEATURED] There is no gorilla in this room. Them wanting to...

    There is no gorilla in this room. Them wanting to be exclusive licensors of their own licenses does not make them a monopoly.



    These are your choices moving forward: buy a cpanel license....

    They can in fact control the pricing of their own licensesas issued to other parties. It doesn't stop anyone from offering their licenses at a price other than what they charge as long as that anyone...
  23. [FEATURED] Didn't we already go through this monopoly stuff...

    Didn't we already go through this monopoly stuff dozens of pages ago? Until and unless you can demonstrate that there are no other, viable control panel software packages from anyone other than...

    All companies have shares, but here in the US, those shares (stocks) are not publicly disclosed unless the company is public (traded on an exchange), the company itself discloses private investments...
  25. [FEATURED] "Certified partner", according to their...

    "Certified partner", according to their announcement. It still isn't a genuine option for general shared hosting, and I wouldn't qualify that as a reduction in pricing. It's just a different product...
