Alternatives to the hated WHMCS?

I saw a post of WHMDC on lowendspirit and wondering if any provider is going to move to use that. I've seen people saying how much they hate WHMCS, specially the pricing.
It seems interesting
I also love blesta and it comes free with some provider

I tried it when it first released, can't remember the version but it looked like a old php software. Just had a look and the UI looks so much better.
even their website looks much professional now
How not complete is complete?
Compl
It’s missing the ete
I found it

Here https://bserv.uk/z3TXc
When there's a counterexample which disprove its completeness i.e there's feature that hosts demands but WHMCS teams failed to implemented or fix within reasonably time frame, then the counterexample is the not-completeness of complete
I'd say that checks out
while also raising prices?
At least it hasn't been acquired by private equity

If only
Try Hostbill
ClientExec, Blesta or HostBill... Which is best and which is second best?
Custom Control Panel
HostBill
WHMCS
Blesta
I only had experience with blesta but loved it.
Hostbill for sure

Just vibe it, what’s the problem…
Me obviously
Anyone on the screen, I have a new mouse and I click who I want!
Plenty of vibed solutions out there, I would not recommend it one bit, coming from I've built one and it's hard enough doing it yourself 🤣
Sure lets go
Be careful who you click on, might get a shock
Congratulations man
Lets just say, you are missing alot of modules/integrations.

If i go on whmcs marketplace, i can just find whatever i need or even more than that. I will be randomly buying multiple plugins just to enhance the features or integrate anything.
Any payment gateway, any control panel is launched. They focus on whmcs plugin only.
Other provides like you have to build that on their own.
That vibe-coded slop?
Well, WHMCS has somewhat of a monopoly. Tho every new hoster that chooses WHMCS feeds into said monopoly and makes it less likely that another system can catch up. For mosts hosts I see around here a simple Paymenter or even HostBill or HostWare (https://hostware.io/) would do the trick too.
