Thanks for the great write up! A lot of us over here at Convesio come from agencies. We wanted to make a product that solved a lot of the gripes we had about hosting at other places. That is why we made an easy to use interface, and added a bunch of features that we felt should be easily available from your admin. It is nice to see that our effort is appreciated.
The UI is very easy to use, not everything has to be the mess that is cPanel lol.
