CWP's problems that need to be fixed urgently
1) CWP still uses 7.1 as internal PHP version. That's why roundcube etc. Versions of .com with serious security vulnerabilities are installed (In this way, full access to more servers is gained and hacked every day.) roundcube etc. The current versions of many additional software used in CWP are PHP 7.1. It doesn't work with .
2) The installation package cannot detect/make the right decision about the operating system on which it is installed: When you install CWP on AlmaLinux 9, CWP still uses the service command when starting/stop/resetting PHP FPMs and querying their status as if it were in CENTOS 7 (This causes the command not to work in AlmaLinux 9 and PFP FPM to not work).
3) The backup issue is still very problematic and confusing. Backups taken from the customer panel do not consist of a single file. Also, CWP->CWP migration is very problematic. There is still no simple way to start a backup for a single account via SSH and import this backup to another CWP. (There is no solution like cPnanel's packageacct)
There are many other deficiencies and errors, but even the most critical errors have not been corrected for a long time. If the developers are no longer going to continue developing CWP, they should announce it because it will take a long time for us to take action and move on to other panels.

I would like to know whether the developers and the CWP team intend to address these issues and continue developing and supporting the project, or whether we should start considering alternative solutions.
In addition to the current issue with local backups failing to complete successfully, there have been long-standing problems with the new Backup module. Another recurring issue concerns the backup confirmation email: when it is received, it does not indicate which backups completed successfully and which ones failed, making it difficult to verify backup integrity and status.
Please keep in mind that these servers are running in a production environment, not in a testing or laboratory setting. These are not issues that we, as server administrators, can resolve on our own; they require intervention and fixes from the CWP development team.
I would like to thank in advance anyone who can help me better understand the situation and clarify the future direction of the project.

Im fighting with backup problems for months!
Tickets opened and nothing is fixed.
Im planning to create another 1 or 2 servers and migrating others but with problems in migrations,I'll not even going to start.

I agree with some of what is said.
CWP does need to drop support for CentOS 7, that is way-way past EOL. Now, not in a year or whenever, NOW.
Once they do, they can focus on how AL9 and AL10 commands and packages work.
But until then...
