Now Upmind is advertising other products inside of Upmind...

Thank god we've moved away from them, this is why I hated Plesk, paying for a service, then getting advertised to.

Zoinkies i wonder what stops enhance doing the same?

+1 - If I have to install adblock on a paid service or butcher my install to remove bloatware I will have a bitter hateful taste in my mouth. Nothing worse than paid plugins and tools that no joke consume the entire page with advertisements.

❤️ Yep! No doubt every cPanel and Plesk meeting their is a representative from Oakley capital screaming 'Less is More' apart from in the billing department where more is best.

Thankfully Enhance has been very fair with us so far and been as transparent as can be expected.

gmakhs IF Enhance ever does it, I'm done with Enhance, cannot stand companies that charge for a service and then have the nerve to ADVERTISE TO YOU.

Zoinkies i believe there is similarity with Enhance and up-mind sharing the same investor so i can see it coming

How long have Upmind forums been replaced with the new way that apparently is designed to "improve the overall experience for our users"?

gmakhs

i just noticed this on the road map :Framework for integration of external applications (website builders, malware protection, software installers, etc) into the Enhance UI.

so now i am sure that this is coming

gmakhs I see you 2 years later here hahaha on same topic I bet on it lol

gmakhs I would hope that whilst any integration is native that Enhance DO NOT force us to use an account they've partnered to setup but one that we can also manually elect to use i.e user/pass/API key by making or using our own agreements with any said company.

Whilst one-click enablement will be good for some, it should not be enforced or the only option.

I think imunify advertise to your clients?
Or is softaculus ? i cant remmeber, enhance could do the same, if its optional with the option to disable those ads i wouldnt mind it

gmakhs It's mostly cPanel extensions that are advertised(imunify, 360 monitoring, social bee). They can be disabled, but from places you would never think of without asking the support.

No software we use advertises to our clients and that way it shall remain.

I don’t know why anyone would even consider using Upmind!

Your data isn’t self-hosted, and you have no real control over it. If you’re a serious hosting provider, security and customer data protection should be a top priority. That starts with minimizing reliance on third parties.

With Upmind, you’re handing over customer data, access tokens for servers like cPanel or Enhance, and even support tickets that may contain sensitive information. And trust me, you have no idea how they store that data or who on their side has access to it.

WebGee And trust me, you have no idea how they store that data or who on their side has access to it.

Given their inability to make what should be simple changes (if they had clean code), probably not securely.

People treat"serverless" and "cloud" providers like they are magic. Many don't even make backups outside of provider snapshots, trust online billing/accounting to not lose years of data. List goes on. If the livelihood of your business depends on a specific cloud software or provider, someone else's mistake can ruin your business. I prefer to be the one to ruin my business.

WebGee This is the sole reason i left upmind. Not self hosted.
