So I ask you, the client, what Control Panel do you want?
Possible Options
- SolusVM
- HostGuard
- Feathur
- Virtualizor
- Proxmox w/ WHMCS Module
Control Panels that I will not consider (in your best interest)
- Virt-Panel
- OpenNebula
Thanks!

I myself want to see more of Feathur.
For the love of god just something that actually provisions or recognizes veth...I beg of you, developers.
Feathur is beautiful and elegant.
Stallion ?
Sure, I'll just ask BuyVM very nicely. (jk)
@jarland, care to enlighten us on why you prefer veth over venet? Advantages / disadvantages? If it's feasible, we can probably get this added in an upcoming HostGuard point release.
Virtualmin
Feathur
CloudMin is possible.
Oops, that's what I meant to say. I played around with it at home and quite liked it.
HostGuard seems pretty decent.
I appreciate all of the support for Feathur. Thank you guys!
That would be sexy. Primarily because it bridges one more gap between openvz and a real virtual machine. That + ploop and openvz is on par with KVM for a lot of software compatibility applications and just short of having it's own kernel. I think people could really shed some of their prejudices against openvz if providers adopted these things, but convenience prevails due to Solusvm support.
Ploop would be just stupid easy to integrate, veth a little more work but not bad.
I agree... it's on my to do list.
Offtopic: When will IPv6 implementation be ready?
Sometime between now and middle of February.
Ploop is awesome.
@NickM Just a heads up, I can't resolve www.hostguard.net. Without www works fine
As a provider, I really like SolusVM, a lot of people bitch about it but I haven't had any issues. The only thing which it lacks at the moment is HA failover features and shared storage support. I have talked to the SolusVM guys about some of these features and they are in the pipeline including live migration. They have actually implemented one of my suggestions in the next version to help with snapshotting clustered LVM's.
The developers are really helpful and will listen to your suggestions if they make sense.
I love RamNodes take on SolusVM. SOOOOO much control over everything, network ports, CD Rom mounting with about 50 different ISOs to mount plus more.
I would have to say presently Cloudmin kicks arse. While it may not look so nice, it does more than I have seen anywhere else. Oh and its perl and NOT encrypted, so I can hack away to make it better.
Presently the pro is the same.
Come back in a year and tell us how much of it actually happened.
I was contemplating writing my own scripts for live failover with SolusVM. Would just have to run live migration like usual in CentOS with failover and then just run the migration scripts on the master. But it's finding the time to do it!
All the ones you listed have trials available. I would honestly let them speak for themselves.
Whenever I choose a vendor, either hardware or software, I also evaluate their support.
Okay so the majority of people want Feathur.
I also might check out HostGuard just because the developer is on this forum.
Cheers!
You comedian, you!
Why don't you like opennebula?
I don't care what panel any provider uses, as long as it's easy to use, stable, secure and gets the job done. That's all we ask for.
From a provider's point of view .. every host should make it very easy for the client to manage their services/invoices/support all from a single panel.
That is something we are working on, and we hope to see many hosts go through this change.
Clients love simplicity.
