So What Control Panel Do You Use?

What control panel do you use on your server Plesk/cPanel/DirectAdmin/Others/None?

How happy are with with it? For those who you more than one, which you like best?

cPanel, very happy with it. It has its problems like anything but overall very very good and keeps getting better. If you know how to use it and learn a few commands as well you can take care of 90-95% of things on your own.

cPanel is a resource hog. I love DirectAdmin. Easy to use, great knowledge base and good support. And inexpensive.

Control panels are resource hogs and don't do anything that a good host with real (live) 24/7 support will do for you. But IF you must have one I would cast my vote for Direct Admin.

I prefer not having a control panel. But if it's absolutely required, DirectAdmin.

I use cPanel but can do most of what I need in putty, cPanel is just a nice front-end for my clients.

I use Cpanel accelerated 2 with a Cpanel WebHostManager.

Simple to use, clean looking & never seems to run slow or have any loading problems.

webmin for the file manager, cpanel with fantastico for easy script installs and domain administration and a good web host for the rest ;)

direct admin works too but it's much more confusing than Cpanel

cPanel or nothing!

I recently tried again (after 5+ years on cPanel) to use DA and it was like moving from All Inclusive 5* hotel to the dumpster...

None, but DirectAdmin is much better than cPanel. Everyone knows cPanel, but it's really a piece of shit. Some PHP, some perl, some binary scripts - oops did you edit a file? Silly human.

DirectAdmin is a lot better than that.

I still prefer vim.

The best is NO control panels, but if you do not have the skills to admin your own server or your host cant, then Direct Admin is the best available.

I use DirectAdmin and love it. The only other one I've ever tried was the one godaddy uses... forgot what it was because it was many years ago, but it sucked ass.
