Plesk Reviews & Product Details

I have been using Plesk for 15 years, starting from the early versions, and it has always been a reliable ally. Over the years, it has evolved alongside technology and has allowed me to optimize the management of my servers (Windows Server) and hosting.

It enables me to automate many recurring tasks such as backups and, today, it is compatible with major storage providers . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It lacks a wide selection of plugins and falls short in terms of security features. A more advanced software firewall would be ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been working with Plesk for server management across multiple client projects, and while it’s established itself as a major player in the hosting control panel space, the experience has been mixed at best.

Its unified dashboard handles site deployment, security configurations, database administration, and SSL management efficiently. The interface simplifies complex server tasks through intuitive controls, making it accessible even for less technical users.

Centralized management works consistently across server environments, allowing unified control over domains, applications, and security protocols without switching interfaces. The automation capabilities handle tasks like one-click WordPress deployments and bulk SSL installations reliably, reducing manual configuration time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing structure becomes prohibitive at scale, with annual increases and premium extensions significantly raising costs.

Resource management struggles on lower-tier servers, occasionally causing performance bottlenecks during peak loads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows me to manage multiple sites, applications, security, and performance from one dashboard—whether on Linux or Windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Plesk offers a lot of features, the cost can add up—especially when you scale or need premium extensions. It’s not the most budget-friendly option for small projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plesk Obsidian has such an easy panel to update server components with latest fixes and additions for the panel itself and a big extension marketplace fullfill our needs. My favourite is WP Toolkit as it informs us for outdated Wordpress extensions and make it more secure with just a few clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Obtaining free ssl (letsencrypt) is just tricky, they should implement an easy one click free ssl button to the panel instead of driving us into SSL menu, i have lost my way on it several times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've used a lot of web services in my career but Plesk is a platform that I am not going to let go. Managing hundreds on website instances, configuring servers, generating backups and updating WordPress plugins have never been so easy. It's centralized, secured in the cloud and reliable at all times. Best, we could install our Plesk server within minutes be it with IONOS Cloud or Google Cloud. Customer support is knowledgeable, kind and professional all the way. While we use Plesk daily, our major updrades are quarterly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Many of the add-ons are costly and it would be appreciated if a subscription package could be made available to get access to all of them at an affordable price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buggy, always something going on with it

expensive, and price increases frequently

Owned by same company that owns Cpanel

Security is lacking Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Plesk is very simple to use with its design and is easy to navigate, as compared to the other competitor like c panel, it's a bit easy to use as cpanel has old traditional setting still in old look. It also has built-in security features, such as SSL certificate management and automatic malware scanning has a built-in WordPress Toolkit which allows users to manage their WordPress installations directly from the control panel. This includes automatic updates, backups, and security scans and the best and flexible licensing options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plesk offers support through its knowledge base, community forums, and paid support plans the database of support is very limited and not easily solvable also i have faced an issue with importing a new website on the hosting, which was little hectic task forme it also requires more server resources than other control panels, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
