impactgc Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Yes I agree swsoft support is horrible -- and you have to jump through hoops just to get support.. There are lot better products out there with less costly support. Helm and Hosting Controller being two of them-- hosting controller offers free support.

networkegypt Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 Adam what i mean As they buy Hsphere(Psoft) with 2 million end users they can buy any other but what`s next they do as if they are collecting all market 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impactgc Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Doubtfull.. Buying these companies in my opinion didn't make them better. it just increased their numbers that is all.. I can't see them working on two seperate control panels - something has to give -- I am thinking it is the newly acquired cps that will suffer. I say in about 10 months time-- they will have all these customers moved over to plesk. Thanks, Adam 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancy Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I don`t believe that its even possible to migrate from H-Sphere to Plesk for 90% of H-sphere customers(hosts). So, i`m sure that SWSoft will be better maintaining and further develop H-Sphere. There`re lots of inconsistenses and key differencies in Plesk vs. H-Sphere, so it`ll be very difficult to make such migration. And, if we`ll add costs of Plesk, Plesk Expand, HSPc - that`s another one issue. OffTop: I`m wondering if anybody interested in adding H-Sphere`s support to WHMCS ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectoral Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Their support is great, if you buy direct from them - obviously you're not going to get the level of support you want but if your company is a partner you get 24/7/365 US phone support and ticket support with a SLA and escalation if needed with direct access to developers via PartnerNet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
othellotech Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Their support is great, if you buy direct from them The "quality" of the support you get even as a partner varies wildly Anyway the acquistions is to have a bigger custmer base, so the managers become richer when the IPO happens in the new year. No idea about DA, but no, they wont be buying CPanel anytime soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 OffTop: I`m wondering if anybody interested in adding H-Sphere`s support to WHMCS ? Maybe we should wait and see if SWSoft implement Open Fusion for Hsphere first? Otherwise, yes count me in, although I don't have any spare time to look into it at the moment, but I'll happily split any costs to develop a full working module.
