Expected as much. It seems they are hard to come by.
Because you have to mark up your whole product line.
It has to be baked in. You can't discount the product because someone doesn't want the license. You're basically forcing everyone to pay for it if they like it or not. Sure, you could make an additional product line but ehhhh.
No ones going to bother with that, especially when you can get Directadmin VPS licenses for $5.00/month, or even free if you pick a badass provider.
On my end of things we're migrating users every week to DirectAdmin, both resellers & VPS customers. I have a few customers lined up to move next week. I suspect by August or so we'll be consolidating more BuyShared cPanel reseller nodes just because of the amount of users migrating.

That's the case it seems.
You deserve more each day for taking the initiative of offering free DA licenses. You did that in the midst of a havoc that cPanel created. You took a challenging decision. More providers followed. In the end, many small businesses were saved.
Thanks a lot for what you did.
We offered it a good bit before cPanel went mental
We're very thankful to DA for everything.

Not many providers will offer solo due to licensing rules. I heard they gave to offer it with every service.
Internal license need to provide free with dedicated server. I think no one signed up for it and did not see any provider offer it.
I did not know that. I hope it turned out as good for you as your clients.
You are right. No one did. They were trying to profiteer from the sheer monopoly they have.
That's where they were wrong. If a user know how to install cPanel, it is not hard for them to install another control panel to manage a single site.
