The fight between Parallels Plesk and cPanel is really quite simple. Plesk is bigger, faster, and simpler than cPanel, and it offers a great deal of flexibility that the older relic cPanel simply hasn’t shown the capability to offer. The fight has been evened up substantially when cPanel released Enkompass for windows, and Parallels latest version of Plesk for Windows has the challenge right back on track. The question now is who is going to take the most market share given that they are both offering Windows-based control panel services?
Plesk for Windows is something that LicenseCube is proud to bring to the market segment. Many people love Plesk for Linux, but without an option to use it on a Windows OS, the Plesk Control Panel was extremely limited. Parallels has now opened many new opportunities for itself by offering Plesk for Windows. Customers will now have the opportunity to host customers on Windows VPS servers and offer them a control panel that can seamlessly and effortlessly integrate with Virtuozzo. The easy-to-use interface on Plesk has always been a huge selling point of this particular software program, and the new Plesk for Windows will have the same type of intuitive interface as the program for Linux.
Additional features that can be found on the new Plesk for Windows control panel are things like ASP, ASP.NET, MS SQL, ColdFusion, and other programming services that cannot be used on the Linux Operating System. Windows has a variety of unique features that can only be found on the Plesk for Windows control panel, and Parallels will now allow customers to take advantage of the new control panel so that they can optimize their virtual Windows environments. Parallels Plesk is one of the leading providers of control panels, and now that they have introduced a version of Plesk for Windows, many people will be testing out the new program to see how well it works for their unique situation.

Some recently announced changes have been made to the latest version of Plesk. All of these exciting features have made Plesk an even better choice as a control panel. The new APS 1.2 support system is revolutionizing the industry by allowing customers to install third party applications with the Application Packaging Standard (APS).
In addition to the APS feature, file sharing is now permitted in the Parallels Plesk control panel. In the past, the SBP (small business panel) handled file sharing, but now it has been replaced and added to the new panel so that everyone can now use the improved file sharing capabilities.
The other features on the new Plesk control panel include increased support for the CentOS alternative repositories. This measure was put in place to ensure that Plesk’s interface can be easily updated to become compatible with alternative repositories.
Small businesses will now be able to utilize the full Parallels Plesk Panel rather than the small business panel that has been used in the past. The migration process is very simple, and the backup and restoration tools provide for a seamless and easy transition to the new control panel.
To make the transition to the Plesk control panel even easier for customers, there are now several video tutorials that can be viewed to answer common questions and give step-by-step guidance on how to begin using the new Plesk panel.
Many upgrades have also been made to the third party components like the MySQL database, the ProFTPd, and the phpMyAdmin modules. This allows users to keep all aspects of the Plesk control panel fully up-to-date. In order to make the upgrade experience even better, the Parallels installer will now perform a self-upgrade to ensure that the very latest plesk updates are being installed to the current version of the panel.

Plesk control panel’s Game Server module allows users to set up game hosting and run virtually any game on their dedicated server or Linux server.

Other games are available on the Plesk panel, but these are just the most popular. You can find a number of different hosting providers that can offer game hosting, and there are other control panels that offer game hosting, also.
In addition to Plesk, cPanel is another program that offers game hosting services that can be run on a Linux server or dedicated server. cPanel has a games module called “cPanel Game Server” which supports over 16 different types of games ranging from Half-Life to America’s Army, and it is packed with features for the gamer. The cPanel Game Server is an interesting way to look at game hosting because it not only offers you the ability to set up your favorite games, it is also part of the cPanel family so it is extremely functional with a wide set of features to make the gaming experience better overall.
You can install the cPanel Game Server directly on your cPanel control panel from the “Manage Plug-ins” tab. After you have installed the plug-in, you can then go on to add any of the supported games and start using them on your Linux server or dedicated server as quickly as you want. There are a number of supported games on cPanel, and you can find an up-to-date list to see if your game and the version that you play is supported by the game server.
Game hosting is a great feature on the cPanel and Plesk control panels, and you can also use this on a Linux server or a dedicated server, whichever you prefer.
