WHMCS or CBM?

[yabado]

I am just starting out with Plesk Panel 11.5 and wanted to reach out for advice on billing.

Should I use WHMCS or CBM ( Customer Business Manager )?

CBM looks better since it is so tightly integrated with the panel, BUT from what I have read it is EOL'd and will no longer be supported. This concerns me.

Would really like to hear back from other users that have used both and that could recommend any advice.

thanks.

Hi,

you could also consider PBAS (http://www.parallels.com/products/pba-standard/).

I would also not go for any Software that's EOL.

Regards,

WHMCs is widely accepted in the market, plugin rich and cheap. Good thing is that for WHMCs we are providing Plesk plugin which is far superior to the default one - it is already available in WHMCs.

But you can also consider smth like HostBill or Blesta.
PBAs is very poerwful, yet you may find it expensive comparing to WHMCs.
CBM is unlikely to have new features, only fixes, so I would discourage starting with it.
