I voted for Cpanel/WHM because I am using them and I think they are best on the net right now.

Cpanel provide way more features and its very user friendly (although its buggy).
Plesk seems more lite and consuming less resources.
Anyway My vote to cPanel/WHM.

I have just left my Virtuozzo / Plesk 8.1 dedicated server for a WHM / cPanel 11 dedicated server. I was put in a corner and had to make the jump.
So far... I miss Virtuozzo and Plesk
Plesk IMHO is definately a lot more stable and easier to work with however it is very simplified in the fact that it does not have anywhere near the amount of features and addons that you get with cPanel. Also there is much more support available for cPanel compared to Plesk. The SWSOFT forums are patheticly slow and not much use if you need answers NOW!
So in summary.... I think once I get used to WHM / cPanel I'm sure I love it also. I just hope it doesn't take me too long to get my head around it.
Due to the amount of support available with WHM / cPanel I would have to also cast my vote towards WHM & cPanel.
Cheers,
Rob

I prefer cPanel/WHM because the WHM-api is much easier to apply then the plesk API. Also there aren't that many billing/customer-scripts that function with plesk.

cPanel/WHM holds my heart! I have used Plesk briefly in a previous version, and noticed that although the GUI is very purdy indeed, it was copied by Virtuoso, and can easily get on my nerves. I am highly impressed by the bug-cleaning done in cPanel 11, and the overall speed of it. It's running much faster than Plesk did when I used it, and in contrast to previous comments stated in this post, is very very stable. I haven't had a problem with it yet!

We offer servers, VPS, and reseller accounts with cPanel/WHM, Plesk, DirectAdmin, and Confixx. Over the past 3 years we see fewer and fewer new customer signing up for Plesk. cPanel is clearly the most popular control panel for both, resellers and single domain webhosts. Part of the reason is that the only problem we saw with cPanel until some time ago, security, is not that big issue anymore -- cPanel programmers have worked on that. Also, every and each software upgrade with Plesk created tons of issues, not so with cPanel.

I remember in my prime when I was a large reseller hoster I had 11 WHM/cPanel server, 1 Plesk server and 1 Ensim server. So, the majority would goto WHM/cPanel from my experience.

Count my vote as 30 votes. When I switched servers last fall (from Plesk to C-Panel), 30 of my customers contacted me to express their gratitude for Cpanel.

voted for cPanel.
Although I haven't had much experience with Plesk we did decide to use Plesk on our offsite support server and it has some nice features.
Who knows maybe as I use plesk more it will grow on me, for now though it's a case of right how do I do this?
