Hosting Control
Panel - HSphere
H-Sphere, while being a relatively new competitor in the market, appears to have one of the most well rounded offerings. H-sphere has three levels of interface including admin, reseller, and end-user. Automated signup and billing, complete with Internet gateway support, is included for both admin and reseller.
H-Sphere 2 is the second-generation release supports both Linux and NT and promises many improvements over 1.0. A couple of the drawbacks to the system are that it must be installed by
PSoft technicians and attempts to be a little too all-inclusive in the way it automates customer sign-up from a package comparison page.
One of the most notable features of H-Sphere 2.0 is the incredible low cost of only $4.50 one-time fee per user license. On the benefit side
PSoft appears to be constantly adding new features and upgrading existing ones.
