Sometime ago Jade from Absolute Hosting recommended Directadmin, I have been using it for a couple of months now. I find it to be very simple and my users appreciate it. I am not sure why it is not as popular as the other big names. I have used Plesk as well.
Of course, cPanel is the dominant package. I know there are quite a few, like Virtualmin etc. I would love to hear what you guys are using and it compares to the big names.

Thanks

cPanel is and has been the house hold name for anything hosting related, but that doesn’t mean it’s the best nor the worst.

But for us we’d choose DirectAdmin over cPanel on any given day.

Their support might not be as fast as cPanel, but it’s so better in so many ways and that’s without factoring in the exorbitant fees that cPanel now charge
 
I have also noticed that users tend to find DirectAdmin quite a bit easier to use than cPanel. Once you get used to it, which I say because a lot of users come from working on cPanel, it is a dream to work on and offers everything a user would need. Personal preference will always be a factor though.
 
How would we compare the security features offered by Directadmin and cPanel/Plesk ?
