At the core of Ensim WEBppliance Pro are four easy-to-use, Web-based control panels. These are used to automate and control hosting activities such as deploying new sites, configuring users and setting email options. Different user roles receive the appropriate control panel, with hundreds of server and site configuration choices available from the graphical user interface. Users maintain sites with point-and-click ease without technical training or interaction by service provider support staff.

For server owners and their resellers, Ensim WEBppliance Pro dramatically shortens the time and expertise required to deploy new sites. Manual setup of a new domain is typically a painstaking, tedious procedure, consuming 30 minutes or more of precious support staff time. With Ensim WEBppliance Pro, you can install and configure applications, create user logins, submit a DNS entry and secure the domain's file system with a few point-and-click operations that take less than a minute. Once entered into Ensim WEBppliance Pro, information populates appropriately across applications for the new site. Ensim also includes the industry's most detailed bandwidth usage reporting that helps service providers accurately track and bill for all bandwidth used by each Web site, whether it's http, ftp, mail or remote access traffic.

For site administrators, Ensim WEBppliance Pro makes it easy to manage a site's files, configuration and users. Site administrators, for example, can add new subdomains and manage multiple databases. For site users, Ensim WEBppliance Pro provides a simple, single access point to files and email options such as vacation messages and email forwarding. Delegating administration to your site administrators and their users greatly reduces the number of helpdesk calls you receive, which in turn improves customer satisfaction and reduces support costs. Ensim WEBppliance Pro makes it easy for new users to get started. It's the only control panel solution that provides new server-owners, resellers and site administrators with quick start guides, introduces them to relevant terminology and demonstrates key 'how-tos.' In addition, context-sensitive online help provides easy access to information as questions arise. These tools reduce the number of support calls and ensure a high level of customer satisfaction.

Ensim WEBppliance Pro includes the industry's most secure hosting architecture. This architecture helps to balance the needs of professional Web hosting companies that need to keep their customers' data secure, while at the same time enable site administrators to control their site.

With Ensim WEBppliance Pro, every site has its own virtual private file system that "boxes in" each site, giving administrators access to their own, and only their own, site data and files. Service providers can now safely delegate either remote access or scripting capabilities to site administrators, without compromising the security of that shared server and the data of all other customers on that server. Each site administrator sees a file system that makes it appear they are the only site on an otherwise shared server. This prevents users from accessing other users' confidential information or bypassing pay mechanisms to steal commercial content.

Ensim WEBppliance Pro is the only control panel solution to enable the security provided by a Virtual Private File System. Other control panels are open to unauthorized access and theft, site re-configuration, and site downtime. A professional hosting business should not settle for anything less than the security Ensim WEBppliance Pro provides to run their businesses.

Ensim WEBppliance Pro includes service plan management as part of its standard package. These tools help you serve a broader customer base by making it easy to bundle the most popular Web applications into compelling, targeted offerings. Most hosting providers offer one or more service plans, usually purchased on a monthly basis, that include a combination of hosting applications and server resources such as disk space and bandwidth.

Ensim WEBppliance Pro's service plan template tool makes it fast and easy to bundle applications and server resources into any number of individualized and targeted service plans. After setting up a service plan once, you then rapidly deploy new sites with just a few clicks to match your predefined plan. Point-and-click customization lets you quickly and easily create the compelling service plans to reach an expanded customer base. As examples, you could create:
