cPanel is my choice definitely, other panels can not beat it just yet. Also people are used to it and it is most important thing when it comes to business choice. it is very secure and stable and with the greatest number of features compared to other panels. When it comes to free panels, I prefer CWP

I'd recommend cPanel as it is the best control I had ever seen. cPanel is a widely-used web hosting control panel. Based on the Linux operating system, it boasts of powerful features that yield a lot of benefits to its end users like web hosting clients and system administrators.

More than 20 years since its release in 1996, cPanel remains very popular. This can be credited to its inherent advantages such as being user-friendly and feature-rich. Indeed, a person doesn’t need to be tech-savvy in order to manage websites or servers using cPanel.

Personally, i have used both Linux based as well as Windows based web hosting control panels. From my personal experience I found that, if you are a Windows user from the start definitely Plesk & DotNetPanel is what you should prefer and opt. If you are a Linux user then cPanel would be a great control panel for managing your hosting aspects. Linux is preferred by majority of online businesses as it is open source and the patches and updates are frequently released. However, Windows need a license and the updates and patches are released very rarely.

There are many control panels available in the internet but, In my point of view cpanel is the best control panel. Users get many advantages with cpanel. like :

* Easy to navigate, colorful, and vibrant client interface.
* Wide array of supported operating systems, including Redhat, Free BSD, CentOS, Fedora, Debian and Trustix.
* Relatively low-cost solution, if purchased through a datacenter etc.

cPanel is the best one we have ever used. Still, You can use CWP for users who can't afford the current cPanel pricing, it provides almost all the features offered by cPanel. You can find the demo installation on their website. It has a FAQ page which will help you sort out any questions and if you've more to ask, then please make use of their forum.

I think Fantastico is amazing as it allows you to install scripts fast and easily. Website monitoring and management can be done in the best possible way through cPanel control panel.

cPanel has been preferred by all, but I believe after the price hike a lot of users are considering alternatives like Plesk and DirectAdmin for Linux servers. We have been using cPanel as the only panel on our Linux servers, however for now we have added Plesk as an alternative to cpanel on VPS and Dedicated servers.

1. Windows - Plesk

"cPanel" is by far the best linux web hosting control panel. The GUI is easy to use, it is very effective and has simplified features. Their support is helpful too. On the other hand, if you are using Windows server then you may go for "Plesk panel" for management.

cPanel for sure. It has better graphics for the interface and overall the placement of functions is spot on. I think Fantastico is amazing as it allows you to install scripts fast and easily.
The support from developers make it even sweeter in my opinion.

If you are likely to spend the money then cPanel is the best control panel that you can have for your hosting services. If money is an issue then you can go for Plesk, zPanel and VestaCP. These are good alternatives for cPanel and you get them free of cost.

I prefer control panel but I think it's because I was used to it. It took me some time to learn the layout of settings and now I wish they would finish transferring everything from control panel to settings so it's all in one place.

For linux, cpanel while for windows plesk is recommended. If you compare both cpanel and plesk, cpanel is way better than plesk. What I would say plesk had improved alot but it is still lagging behind to cpanel.
