Best control panel I have used for my hosting

  • January 17, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the user interface and robust features. CPanel is the closest rival, but I prefer the Plesk interface for quick and easy tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the icons I have never understood.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Control panel for hosting. We use this on MediaTemple hosting.

Affordable Server Management Software

  • January 17, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easily update and manage multiple WordPress sites
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at the moment. We would like more access to some Mod Security features and Apache. I suppose there might be some plugins for this but native support would be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide hosting services as a courtesy to our clients. Plesks allows us to offer quality hosting, email and server management at a low cost. It works well with most Linux environments and from our observations is less buggy than Cpanel. Most of our clients use WordPress for their sites and we appreciate that Plesk lets us update and maintain their sites through a single interface.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plesk is not for everyone. If you just need a website it might not be worth the overhead. Otherwise if you manage multiple clients and sites it make sense.

Plesk review

  • January 17, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Plesk is well known web hosting control panel, albeit it lags a bit behind cPanel in terms of sheer popularity. Plesk is also a proprietary offering, though it supports both Linux and Windows servers. Most of its frontend has been coded in PHP.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not user friendly like other hosting control panel
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Plesk allows for easy management of domains on our server and to give our clients the ability to log in and manage their own sites which is wonderful.

Easy solution to run your websites and servers without issues

  • January 15, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The easiness to have multiple websites up and running in a few minutes.
The Wordpress management is super intuitiv and comes with a lot of extras
I also like the great reactions in the facebook group of Plesk because if you ever encounter a problem there is always someone with a solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
The first setup was a little bit to long but as it is only a first setup it doesn't disturb that much. In the meantime this has changed and a lot of things got optional.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hosting and operating multiple websites and web projects. You have everything where you want and need it and thanks to extensions you can nearly do everything inside Plesk without leaving the control panel or switch to another tool.
There was a great blog article about setting up your wordpress with varnishe thanks to the docker integration. After having my testsites live with cache I moved nearly all websites on that server behind the varnish cache. Never thought it is that easy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy and professional way to solve all your hosting problems => Go use Plesk

Greatest Panel

What do you like best about the product?
I have seen many Docker integrations/dashboards/etc and I was positively surprised when I saw that Plesk Onyx installed a version of Docker that had been released earlier.
The price quality ratio is really competitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not still not available in north africa, but this something that going to change
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Plesk, SAFOZI helps with its service P4D - Platform 4 Developers Web Agencies to profit from Cloud Infrastructure and to sole easily hosting needs.

Best control panel I've used!

  • January 11, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to manage sites, clients, and everything from the plesk control panel! I feel like it's the easiest to use between all of the ones I've used. It's very convenient having all of your settings in one place, from DNS to databases to email. Plesk allows you to control all of these and much more in a nice GUI. It also allows you to set up different logins which can only control their own domains. We do a lot of web hosting, and this allows us to give those of our clients that need it access to do more with their site. In short, I've never needed to do something with Plesk that I haven't been able to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm using Plesk 10, so I'm not sure what all might have changed in plesk 12 and these are complaints with 10.

Some of this is probably by necessity, but you have to go through extra work to make any changes outside of plesk apply. I also wish you could open certain screens in a new tab without it messing things up. In plesk 10 at least, it's using frames, which means that the left navigation and the main settings window are separate, which doesn't work super well. It's also not at all mobile friendly, but it looks like that's been addressed in Plesk 12, so it doesn't affect my recommendation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Plesk allows us to easily manage hundreds of domains on our server and give our clients the ability to log in and manage their own sites as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to check the requirements and get the latest version you can to work with your environment.
