BlueOnyx, has anyone tried it?
Can you share your experiences?
I always recommend HestiaCP to my VPS clients. I've tried CyberPanel and other free options, but the experience hasn't been good. Any other recommendations?
HestiaCP works very well, but I haven't found a user-friendly theme like cPanel or DirectAdmin.
Thanks
Thanked by 1nghialele

Virtualmin is my goto for the last 10+ years.
First time hearing it. I tried to check their website, but it seems like a PHP panel only at first glance. There aren't many useful details on their site other than some marketing blabber.
My go to panel is always either of cloudpanel, aapanel, and dokploy.
I have mixed experience with hestiacp, I think it's good for one site alone, but when I offered it to my clients for free hosting, I feel the bottleneck easily when there's high traffic, the site will start to slow down. Well, I know the default php-fpm template needs to be tweaked, the issue is that I need to tell them every time to use this specific php-fpm template them or I usually do myself.
There's not really a panel alternative that has somewhat cloudlinux capability, never try to find out whether we can integrate cloudlinux to Hestiacp.
For now, I still use hestiacp to host sites for multiple clients. Providing them with redis per user via unix socket, some QoL interface, I guess, like real-time usage stats.

virtualmin is quite close to cpanel/da/whm. I perfer it.
Now that brings up some memories, used to have a rack of those little blue pizza boxes. In its day about 25 years ago it was great, we ran our customers on them for a long time.
Today I use Keyhelp for my own use, playing, and such.
Good Luck,
Anthony
If you want something stable and that handles the basics perfectly then ISPConfig. If you're looking for something a bit more modern then FastPanel.

Tried to install blueonyx several month ago, but unfortunately no luck.
the things that interested for me : that is control panel for almalinux, but there seem we have to buy some module if needed.
used FastPanel for 1 year, very nice and simple. hopefully they bring almalinux 9 compatibility soon
I can only agree with @kidos. I’ve been using FASTPANEL for about three years on more than 90 servers, and I’m very satisfied with it. It’s very simple and intuitive, the installation is extremely quick, and maintenance is easy thanks to automatic updates. A user-friendly theme is only available with the Extended license for €4.20 per month or the Lifetime license for €99. However, I only use the Standard license, and it’s completely sufficient.
One note of caution: support tickets for FASTPANEL have cost money for some time now — but you won’t really need them, as everything works smoothly.
It just supports PHP yes?
Blue Onyx is a spin of from popular Cobalt Networks server's from the late 1990s. Sun Microsystem had acquired Cobalt Networks in the early 2000's and eventually released as open source. Its been around for a very long time. Not sure why this never became popular. Did try back early 2000s but will give another spin at it since have some idlers.
Yes, currently it supports only PHP. However, the support team told me some time ago that they are planning to add features like Node.js apps and more in the future.
