H-Shpere was unfortunately bought by the same folks that own Plesk - a company now called Parellels. I would not be surprised if they attempt to move H-Shpere users toward Plesk in the very near future.
Parallels was previously SW-Soft - makers of Plesk and Virtuozzo and a whole host of very popular hosting-related software. They went through a buying spree about 6 months ago - buying up their competitors and absorbing their products and their customers. Some of the victims of this process were Comodo's H-sphere, FreeVPS (a Virtuozzo competitor) and CP+ (a Plesk competitor). Further development on FreeVPS and CP+ has been halted, and Parallels has made no attempts to offer a migration path for customers who were using them. This has cost my company tens of thousands of dollars in migration efforts away from CP+ and FreeVPS. It's a crying shame because both FreeVPS and CP+ were *excellent* products, and served us very well for many years. Parallels also publicly stated that they would offer migration paths for customers who were effected by their acquisitions - this never happened. Despite my phone calls and emails asking for said promised service. They never came through. Parallels lies. I do not trust them. I will not use, nor would I recommend their products, or products owned by them, to anyone.
