Helm?

[domainer50]

What is the helm panel? I was looking at a pretty prominent web host and they use the helm instead of cpanel. Has anyone ever used this? Is it anywhere near the quality of cpanel?

Well Helm is good for windows, cpanel is linux only. Alternative for plesk although plesk would be more popular I think.

Like Brandon said, Helm is for Windows. You can check it out more here, including a demo:

yes brandon very good man

Hawns, thank you for the URL. It was interesting for me to see the demo, because I have only used Plesk and Cpanel, of course. When you see Helm's skin, you definitely can say that it is for Windows

[domainer50]

Thank you for the link. I will have to look into the Helm panel a bit more. The host I am considering uses the helm panel, and I have used cpanel on every site I have ever owned and I do not want to be shell shocked.

To be honest I have never heard of Helm, although I have heard of plesk. Looks like I'm going to have to read up on this to find out if this or cpanel is better!

Well its first time i heard about it. What I like to know is does it has something similar to Fantastico ? This one looks little like vista panel.

I am unaware of all of its features. That is why I was asking about it Unless it offered something off the charts I would not use it over cpanel. So....
