Control Panel
iPower Web announced in June 2004 that it signed an exclusive contract with SWsoft, a developer of web hosting automation software, to provide Plesk 7 control panel to iPowerWeb's dedicated server customers. SWsoft introduced Plesk 7, the most recent version of its control panel application for managing Linux, Unix and Windows-based servers, in February 2005. SWsoft also offers Plesk Expand, an add-on to Plesk 7, which unifies web hosting environments with multiple servers running on varying platforms.

Customer Support
iPowerWeb had to play a little catch-up in the support department based on its fast growth, but this issues seems to be behind them; they now have a knowledgeable support team in place that can handle their huge base of customers. Support is offered by toll free telephone and live chat 24/7, along with e-mail - which has always been above average at iPower Web. They also offer an excellent "Start Center" with helpful tutorials.
