South Bend, Indiana, Dec. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In an effort to show its support and appreciation for the free and open-source software (FOSS) projects that develop and deliver web hosting service management Control Panels, HostColor.com (HC) announced an Open-Source Projects Support Program.
Starting from January 1st, 2023, HostColor will start donating a fixed amount for each Shared Web Hosting account that uses an open-source web hosting management control panel. The donation to the open-source control panel developer will increase 10 times when customers choose to use its server management software on a Virtual Private Server hosted on stand-alone physical servers or on a Public Cloud Server, delivered from the company's Cloud infrastructure.
"The major producers of server management control panels no longer look committed to providing the L.A.M.P. software bundle users and the open-source-based applications with fair and reasonably priced web hosting automation solutions," says HostColor's CEO Dimitar Avramov. He adds that the producers of the most used server automation control panels have constantly been imposing unjustified price hikes and taking advantage of the web hosting services users. "Within the last few years, during the tough economic times, a number of server automation producers are increasing the financial pressure on small and medium businesses, rather than easing it," explains HostColor's executive. According to him, those server automation producers have long been undermining the fundamentals and values of the open-source industry and L.A.M.P.-based digital economy.
"We want to raise the users' awareness and tell the small business owners that there are a number of web hosting automation panels that are distributed either with a free or a fairly priced license", adds Mr. Avramov. His company believes that the developers of hosting control panels such as CentOS Web Panel, Vesta, Froxlor, aaPanel, Webmin, Virtualmin, Ajenti, Sentora, Blueonyx, Easy Hosting Control Panel (EHCP), i-MSCP, ApisCP, ZesleCP, etc.
The list of the open-source-based web hosting control panels, included in the "Open-source Projects Support Program" and the specific amount of the donations are available on the program's web page and on the Cloud services order pages.
