search forums!

tried that, but didn't find the answer

I think the easiest answer to your question - is just look around this forum and that of Ensims to see how many people are struggling with Ensim (and they're not struglling because of their knowledge or ability - theres some really knowledgable visitors to this forum).

I bought Ensim :eek: but the next server wil be Plesk.

I would definitely recommend PLESK *OVER* Ensim. I have never used Ensim personally, but I can tell you that the support I have received directly from people at PLESK in getting PLESK to work tailored to my needs has been above the call of any duty - and there is wide support for PLESK. It seems to be the Ensim boxes are sitting on the RS shelves more and people are just waiting for more PLESK boxes - especially the Intel P3's In short, PLESK is the way to go in my opinion.

since Plesk doesn't offer any templates or ways to modify their CP I'll go with Ensim. I'd disslike to give customers two control panels (Plesk one and mine with additional options, forum etc) and to not be able to translate their menues. So Ensim is my choice but if you don't care about modifying the interface Plesk seems to be better.

For personal use, plesk is better ... more robust.

For a webhosting biz .. ensim is far superior ... the control panel is much easier to use.

I think that's a highly debatable statement. We've got many, many resellers who are very pleased with PLESK and have compared it to Ensim - so far, at least in our part of the hosting world, PLESK seems to be preferred amongst our resellers.

for webhosting?? Get both servers and keep your customers happy..

my 0.02

That's because Ensim is lacking reseller capabilities, but Plesk lacks the virtual hosting capabilities and interface...

I went with Ensim, have I had problems - nothing serious. Do I regret it? Absolutely not. Would I go for Plesk if it were more user friendly? Absolutely.

I have a php programmer hard at work, hacking a reseller panel to interface with Ensim... then my ultimate control panel will be complete.

just tried out this ensim demo, but is it possible to add other websites to your server, cause I couldn't see the option to?
