Since I use Plesk on my servers I can configure it to do regular backups.

You are incorrect. I am maintaining my own.

Don't use it then. All I'm doing here is sharing information about what I'm doing. Nobody else is obligated to do it.

Since I have my own Linux server at my NOC, I am considering running a dedicated wire in. The box has a 1TB SSD on it and with the changes I have made recently in cutting costs this would enable me to raise the bar on web hosting. I could host a massive number of clients on that. And with the...

You might be interested to know that I have not gotten any customers at all from this website. I come here to try and share value in what I do to help other companies. Maybe improve your view on things instead of casting false accusations.

That's a personal view, but not true in my case.

Yep, but I like BoxBilling. It's open source and I can actively maintain it anyway since I'm a programmer.

One of many things I like about it is that it's free and open source. I've been able to alter some of the code and add things I want on it and in it.

Although I would like to get rid of the expense for Plesk, it does do a lot. When I ran my first server I ran it on a dedicated SDSL line out of my home in the late 90's on Red Hat Linux. I didn't host websites at that time, I only ran my own on that box. I did it by editing the configuration...

I was very pleased and impressed to find something free that would do what this does. There is a learning curve to it since it's not highly intuitive. But anyone with a brain will figure it out. You basically add hosting plans then you add products to the plans. When I cancelled WHMCS, although...

No, I said Box Billing. ;)

I just saved myself $68/mo and I didn't switch to Geicho ;)🤣 Although I am keeping Plesk for now, I got rid of WHMCS and one of my servers. I moved several domains and consolidated things to cut down on the number of servers I have to keep. I got rid of about 12 of my personal domains as...

It's worth my time to do the coding. $29/mo for 5 years = $1740. I have more time than money.

Unless of course you're a good programmer and you can modify it to make it look better and be more user friendly.

I agree that customers would not like it as much. But also for the price of that I offer I don't think I would lose customers. And with some of the upcoming transitions and thinking of doing I can actually lower prices if I'm not using the popular programs such as plesk, cpanel and whmcs.
