ISPmanager is good for novice users who just want to install and host.
In terms of price / performance, it is probably the best panel you can get, but it also has its negatives.

Pros

ISPmanager has all the necessary functions for classic web hosting. Everything works seamlessly and developers are learning to constantly add new features.
If I were to compare functions with panels at the same price level, then ISPmanager is above average in its functions.

Cons

The disadvantage of ISPmanager is poor support, which usually does not understand what is wanted.
When support after several messages understands what is wanted, it only gives general advice or an excuse and they are not able to give any firm opinion.
Another problem is poor development documentation and because of this, the development of custom add-ons and modifications for ISPmanager is difficult. At the same time, they do not provide developer license.

Alternatives Considered

Plesk and cPanel & WHM

Reasons for Choosing ispmanager

I was looking for a panel with more advanced features.

As a whole the software works, but is WAY to expensive.

After all, they force us to pay for a lic for something as simple as a DNS server.

We cluster our install, meaning one servicer per server. We have 2 DNS servers, 4 email servers and 2 MySQL servers. These cost us over 100EUR a month to run.

Now I get paying for the 10+ web hosting servers. But a DNS server? Come on. Also to be clear that is an ISPManager DNS server, not even a DNSManager server.

Pros

ISPManager is very easy to install once you learn the process. It is moderately easy for users to be able to manage their needs.

Cons

The documentation sucks and lacks sooo many thing. The support points you to documentation that does not contain the answers. The support team does not actually ready your support ticket, in most cases jump to conclusions as to what you are asking and returns a completely useless incorrect answer. The Anti-Spam system does not even remotely work.

Response from ispmanager

Hello John, thank you for the review. Could you tell us a bit more about documentation? E.g. What articles are useless, what information you need etc.

Also, we'd be happy to know more about the functionality you need for the DNS management part.

A couple of years ago, one of my servers just died... Of course I had backups, but I needed to restore everything very urgently. It was at night! I contacted support, and after 2 hours, they helped me deploy the panel on another server and transfer all the sites of my clients. It was a boring night...

Pros

The most important thing is that you do not need to be a professional with deep knowledge to work with the panel ISPmanager. I just go to the server console, enter a few commands according to the instructions - and you're done! Everything is working!

Cons

Perhaps the only thing is that the panel is paid! :)

Quite good, I enjoy using it and the users we have on this server really enjoy it, it's a new and different control experience to the other tools.

It's quick and everything just works - the menu moving from v5 to v6 is definitely a bit different and some things are missing but I could see us using more licenses commercially.

Pros

It doesn't try to be a clone of every other control panel, I feel like they do a unique enough job on a few key things that matter and overall it's a very nice end-user experience.

Cons

It feels like you need to be part of their entire Bill manager, VMManager ecosystem in order to have the best experience and they're all at very different price points, probably a bit higher than what everyone else is charging for equivalent products.
