Default Ensim

Ensim is another major webhosting administration panel, with its own advantages and disadvantages.

Although it has an icon-rich user interface, it has been known to be particularly sluggish to administrate.

Additionally, while CPanel moved forwards with CPanel X, Ensim is still chugging along with a frames-based interface.

Another quirk is that any attempt to use the folder name “/admin/” in the URL of a website running with Ensim running behind it, would be forced into the Ensim administration login - something that has been unwelcome where third-party developers may use this same feature to log into their own website software, which is over-rided by Ensim.

Importantly, though, Ensim offers fewer exploits that the more popular CPanel, and although there are differences in how to administrate a site in comparison to CPanel, it is still relatively user-friendly to some degree.

Overall, Ensim seems a bit heavy and outdated, and could really do with more development to help make the webmaster user-experience a little more friendly in comparison to other admin panels, such as Cpanel and Plesk.
