Cast control or WHM sonic?

Hey,

I was doing some research into alternatives which would work best for myself, and discovered WHM Sonic, which seems quite reasonable, site:

http://www.whmsonic.com/sap_features_cpanel.php

Or good old cast control?

It really depends on what you intend to offer with your shoutcast customers.

I work for WHMSonic, so I can get you it cheaper

Cast-control on the other hand - used... but hated.. - Reason?: Because when you start a radio it dies. You can't start all servers at once, you can't get them all online. Cluster is a load of rubbish aswell.

I am amazed on how tech-hosts have accomploished to get there Cast-Control working perfectly.

Well I loved cast-control fantastic just need to know how to install it tidy

WHMSonic is not for all because you need cPanel/WHM to run this

Indeed. I noticed when installing, Cast-Control give the wrong sc_serv and sc_trans files.

Had to download and place them in root/ before I could install. Then on it was easy.

Only problem with it is that it doesn't boot the servers correctly and / or stop them.

That is correct yes. But most web hosting companies would be on this platform now really. Seeing the death of Kloxo really made no choice apart from Webmin, Direct Admin, cPanel and Plesk Power Panel.

It really is up to you. Hey, why don't you start with the Cast-Control lite, it is only $3 so, if all goes wrong, you only lost about £1.90

Our site uses IceCast and we have been looking into a backup system for when DJs are off air.

What do you guys think of this:
