softaculous 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) My Team has recently developed Sofatculous - An auto Installer : http://www.softaculous.com/ We now have 75 scripts which is much more than those offered by our competitors and we will strive till we have atleast 100+. Softaculous is a FREE Auto Installer, which means you can save nearly $2/month/server if you use paid Auto Installers. Softaculous is different from its competitors in the following ways: 1) We look much better: http://demo.softaculous.com/enduser/ 2) We have latest versions of Scripts making Softaculous MORE SECURE 3) We have a standard and better API to add softwares 4) We are actively developing and adding new softwares 5) We install in just One Step. Please try it at the Demo. 6) Softaculous has DEMOS 7) Softaculous has RATINGS : http://www.softaculous.com/softwares/ 8) Softaculous has REVIEWS systems 9) AND we are FREE! So we encourage you to please install SOFTACULOUS and make many scripts available to your users. If you offer VPS and Dedicated servers, it will help you save some GOOD amounts as Softaculous is FREE and also you will be providing a better SOFTWARE than the other auto installers! Installing Softaculous is just a ONE Minute job. Please see the installation procedure at: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ If you have any comments please post them here.

-Sky- 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Yes, I've used this on my website. I installed WebMail (Squirrel) but could not login to it, nor an admin panel is included. I found it pretty boring without an admin panel with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
softaculous 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Squirrel Mail is like Outlook ExpressYou will need a Mail account supporting IMAP or SMTPAlso SMTP and IMAP settings must be set properly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDisturbedOne 1 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 It looks a lot better than Fantastico, but I prefer to do a manual install especially for the ones that are harder to install. Great for new people though, for a while I never knew how to run a manual install. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And these softwares are added only if they are worth being added! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Sky- 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) Near enough all the software yours has in, Fantastico already has. Name a few things that Softaculous has that Fantastico does NOT have.EDIT: Can't you atleast put on an Invision Power Board v1.3 in the Forums section in your software?

softaculous 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Version 1.3 of IPB ?What license do they use ?Is it GPL ?Also we have 75 softwares and fantastico onll 50 or 52So 23 - 25 softwares more.Moreover we give DEMOS, Ratings and Reviews.And to top it we are free!So now what is better SOftaculous or Fantastico Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Invision Power Board v1.3 is a Security nightmare. It is sitting there waiting for an injection of nasty stuff.I would suggest you do not use Invision Power Board v1.3 even if it is free. The holes in it have not been repaired for years. Also, there are conditions for its use that IPB will enforce, so it is not a suggested Forum Software.Check out AEF Forum Software from anelectron.com. It is included with a Softaculous install, too. Lots of features and plenty of Ajax, including the Shoutbox which is included in every copy. No Mods to allow the use the Shoutbox. Simply enable it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
webishqiptar 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I saw softaculous already installed in my cpnale, how is it possible or did you arrange a deal with Xisto - Web Hosting owner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Sky- 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Maybe so haslip, but AEF sucks compared to IPB. Sorry mate. And the "holes" as wwe speak can be patched up by professional IPB coders I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
softaculous 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 We think both IPB and AEF are good softwares.Softaculous has to cater to all types of users and hence we install so many softwares for the users.Another 15 apps coming soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
