I recently know a panel called ApisCP, it looks good, but there’s few reviews about it, what do you guys do with it? Or do you recommend it than DirectAdmin etc.

We had like 50 servers loosing their license due to some update of their licencing system one night.. It has become clear that enforcing licencing was more important than stability at some point.

Nothing bad for CE, but their product is lacking so many features that exist on WHMCS and Hostbill that you can't compare them. I would say here is better comparison:

Clientexec - virtualy dead project. Development pace erratic, feature wise not even close to whmcs. Version 7.0 soon™.

You want to become a Hosting provider and cannot afford a CL license cost?

Then I think nothing comes close to WHMCS unfortunately.

1) Blesta is the second best. It's almost as good as whmcs. It needs a few features I'm Waiting to get polished out, and then I will switch to this.
