  Can someone vibe-code a WHMCS alternative for me?

  I use Paymenter & CE.

  90% done.

  Everyone knows the last 10% takes 90% time to finish.

  As the reddit kids say, !RemindMe 2038

  I have to say it, when some hosts are increasing price due to increase in hardware price for ridiculous amount (upto 300%), it is "justifiable".

  But When the license used by hosts increases slightly, here comes the criticism.

  Economy entangles all. When prices increase everywhere, it will also impact products that may not have been related to the initial inflation at all.

  You are also a part of increase of this price for which you (not necessarily OP but lot of members from hosting community) are complaining.

  The problem with WHMCS is that it is becoming bloatware and the price increase is not justified by the features or stability..

  Besides the pricing, who is happy of the software, what is a nice feature they added recently ?

  there are a lot of them already.

  can you name few?

  Not really, they are full of bugs and a few were rooted pretty quickly. Check the forum, a few people presented their panels here.

  I believe the only reliable options are:

  • Blesta
  • ClientExac
  • HostBill
  • Upmind
  • Paymenter
  • WiseCP

  There may be others that I am not aware of, please free to mention them.

  I think there's a learning curve too. I tried to use HostBill and Blesta..but coming from WHMCS - I didn't like them.

  HostBill feels like an ERP system from 2010s..
  Blesta 6's new UI looks like AI Slop..In both of them, you have to do so many extra clicks to perform simple actions in the admin area.
