We are using Helm Control Panel on our servers because it has an in built billing system. I know Helm is probably not the best as I have read alot about other Control Panels.

Which is the best Control Panel for a Windows Server and does a billing system come with it if not could you recommend a billing system as well.

Cheers

Is there more of a choice for a Linux Server then a Windows Server, we have always had windows servers that is why I am asking.

Cheers

That is why we have always had windows servers, is there any other Control Panels to use on a Windows server then Plesk/Helm.

It seems a short list to choose from.

There is Plesk for Windows - but it's not any good

DotNetPanel has just had some new features put in and later in the year, there will be cPanel for Windows Server 2008

DotNetPanel - Looks easier to use then Helm, maybe worth looking at that.

Could you recommend a billing system to run with it ?

Cheers

WHMCS No questions asked

Thanks for the help, it looks like it will be DotNetPanel with WHMCS on the new servers.

Cheers

Personally I wouldn't make a decision just like that

Get a demo of them both and see how they perfom for you. With DotNet do a mailshot to customers to see if they like it nor - they may prefer Helm.

We are doing to see how they work together and whether we are happy with it, once we have got to grips we will ask our customers.

Thanks
