Information / Re: Current work to improve CWP.
« on: February 04, 2020, 12:37:28 PM »As it stands, CWP (whatever that stands for) is far too volatile to be considered a mainstream control panel. Undocumented, almost daily breaks/fixes puts paid to that. Pun intended.
Pricing in the $4/$5 per month puts it at the level of, for example DirectAdmin and even though I much prefer the CWP GUI, at that price point CWP Pro would fail entirely, IMHO. DirectAdmin is increasingly being offerred for free with VPS packages.
I currently run only one client site with CWP Pro, which is manageable, though I wouldn't trust any more than that! I have another CWP Pro instance, for my own application development. This is in addition to a couple of free CWP instances. I also run WHM (x3), DA (x2), webmin (x4) and other control panels - some purely for personal purposes eg. tertiary backups.
CWP Pro *should* open the gateway to Support Tickets, with the free version only forum based support. This doesn't mean Support caters for people who know little about how to run a server. It's to address issues with the panel itself.
Whilst I voted No in the poll above, there is scope to increase the annual fee a little, without putting too many people off, IMO. The developers of CWP do not do themselves any favours however, as the lack of forum participation and response to critique has a large bearing on the trust from potential Pro purchases, I'm sure.
Double the annual fee, and I'd take my money elsewhere - the risk factor of CWP is high enough as things stand. :-/
Note: I send the occasional voluntary donations to Linux Mint, wikipedia and other helpful sites. Once a blue moon folks have donated to me for my information/files too. Though not as active as a few years ago, I contributed much coding and 'fresh' ideas to a certain open source oscommerce derivative.
I like your comment. Actually, I think it's all about simply limiting the time spent on free customer support and spending that time improving the panel.

I think the most viable option is to limit the support to only customers with contracted support plans, this would help reduce their workload by attending to requests or improve the income by having to pay for support, which would even help them to hire or improve the conditions of current programmers and have more time to spend on improving the panel.
Even the price of the PRO license, seems to me very low for the current features of this panel and the most important functions of it, making them only usable by PRO license customers, all this to help them to get more revenue and improve this system.
The current price of 1.49$ per month, is too low to keep the system stable, I think an updated price of about 4/5$ per month would be a much fairer price and would still be much cheaper than the different options existing today.
If someone thinks it's too much, it's because they don't really know what it costs to maintain a team.
If I have to pay then I will pay for cPanel. You are missing the point about open source.
If anyone should pay it should be paid directly to apache.org. Apache is FREE. Do you think we should pay Apache? No, I didnt think so. Your $$$ ideas are not welcome here.
Of course, the same is $45 against $1.45, or even $4/5.

« on: February 03, 2020, 08:55:54 PM »With present price of CWP Pro it is no way they''ll be able to answer tickets.
But idea can be to make paid for tickets, where sum is paid only for real solution of the issue or for fix.
But, it's just that currently I "think" that they cater to everyone, including tickets from those who don't have a PRO license. Is that right? That's why I meant that they only serve tickets from those who have PRO licenses, it would reduce their applications. Even if we get "demanding", only to those who have a support plan of this page: https://control-webpanel.com/support-services
We use enterprise to collaborate and improve this project, while paying for partner service.

E-Mail / Re: Upgrade CWP to use Postfix 3.X
« on: February 03, 2020, 05:42:37 PM »we didn't say it will be not implemented, it is paused for sometime since we're focused on improving CWP more. Like New File manager is coming
Perhaps, you should think about what gives more functionality and is more necessary. For the whole market that comes from CPanel, this is super important, however, we have a functional file manager, so it is not "so important".
I think the only thing missing is to sort by order of importance.

Current work to improve CWP.
Attached is a list of things that I think are important and necessary to improve CWP for those of us who come from CPanel.
1º Update Postfix to version 3.
2º Auto login in roundcube.
3º Implement IPv6 (We already sent a working module to the CWP team. We are currently using it in our CWP servers)
4º Update PHPMyadmin to the latest version.
5º Improve the support. For this, it would make that only those who have a PRO license can write tickets to the CWP team. Free users can use the forum.
These are the needs that we have found, according to our needs. We know that there are more things, but the most important to be able to transfer accounts from CPanel to CWP are these.
Greetings!

« on: February 03, 2020, 11:03:55 AM »currently testing are paused and no plan for 3.xx will notify in forum when it is available.
Strage becouse I am on 3.X since one month now and everything working fine
Really, this is very bad news. You should give priority to these things, as it is also beneficial for the panel, as we can bring in CPanel customers without so many problems.

This is terrible news. In order to bring in all of CPanel's customers, this is necessary. It is one of the most important points to bring the clients having the least possible problems.
You should reconsider this as you are blocking the option of us bringing CPanel clients to CWP.

E-Mail / Re: Problems sending emails to Gmail IPv6 error? HELP!
« on: January 24, 2020, 12:38:47 PM »
IPv6 is not a problem, the problem is not configuring things properly.
We bet on IPv6 in all our clients' accounts, it has some problems, but the solution is not to forget about it, it is to try to solve the problems.

Okay, I understand that they don't put all the errors that are corrected, but maybe, they could put the new features or any relevant enough information that we should know?

This should be reported through the change log. We can't be blind to every update.
I have already written to the support team several times, but they don't seem to pay much attention.
