Herndon,
VA — July 15, 2004 – Today, SWsoft, the
established leader in hosting automation and server
virtualization software, announced the full production
release of Plesk 7 Reloaded. Plesk 7 Reloaded is a major
product release that incorporates suggestions and feedback
from hundreds of customers and Beta testers worldwide.
The award-winning control panel offers more than 50
new powerful features for hosting providers and end
users alike.
"This latest version of Plesk focuses
on vital enhancements that our community has demanded
but are not available through other control panels on
the market,” Travis Schaffner, CTO, Fastservers.net.
“Plesk 7 Reloaded takes a giant step forward in
overall scalability and compatibility with our system,
and we're looking forward to an increasing presence
of Reloaded in our production environments."
Switching to Plesk Now Easier Than Ever
Used by more hosting service providers than any other
control panel software, Plesk 7 and now Plesk Reloaded
dramatically simplify the management of Linux, FreeBSD,
UNIX and Windows servers. With Plesk 7 Reloaded’s
built-in and fully functional Migration Manager, hosting
providers can painlessly migrate from older versions
of Plesk, in-house systems and cPanel, Ensim or Cobalt
control panels.
“One of our core strengths has
always been our development team constantly retooling
and reloading our solutions with new capabilities and
rigorously testing them,” said Kurt Daniel, director
of marketing, SWsoft. “Plesk 7 Reloaded provides
an even cleaner and easier to use interface, Plesk Anti-Virus
powered by the award-winning Dr. Web, the highly anticipated
Auto Upgrade component and a host of other features.
In addition, hosting providers can take advantage of
deeper integration with our other products such as Virtuozzo
and HSPcomplete.”
