Mint Panel Control Panel Overview

Mint Panel is one of the most unique control panels on the market. Not only does it offer the ability to automate the management of web servers, but FTP, voice and game servers as well. Notably more affordable than competing products, the software bundles reseller and billing support to make it a complete automated server management solution.

Centralized Server Management

Mint Panel makes it simple to managed all installed servers from a single console. Known as the Master Server, this centralized facility allows users of all access to levels to login and manage their respective environments. This approach helps save precious system restores while enabling administrators to be more productive at the same time.

Extensive User Management

Mint Panel has five levels of login, each with its own unique roles and responsibilities that are defined by the administrator in the above tier.

Administrator – The administrator has the highest level of access, able to easily assign access to all other servers and enable those users to handle their respective management tasks. Mint Panel also allows administrators to efficiently manage their entire network infrastructure, thus dramatically reducing the probability of system failures.

Reseller – The reseller has the same level of access as the administrator with the exception of being able to manage the master server and infrastructure. This means the reseller has an extensive level of control over web, FTP, voice and game servers.

Account Holder – The third level of access gives account holders the ability to manage web, voice and game servers as well as create four fourth tier users to manage specific services based on the privileges provided to them.

User – The user represents a login level that is created by the administrator or account holder. These users are usually assigned to specific servers to perform administrative tasks.

Mail User – The fifth level allows a user to login in an access their own provide area for managing passwords, spam filtering and anti-virus configurations.

Integrated Billing System

Mint Panel comes equipped with a complete billing system. This fully featured system allows administrators and resellers to create custom invoices, automatically suspend services for defaulted payments, and set up recurring payments for customers. It also supports multiple gateways with support for custom gateways to be added in the near future. Perhaps the greatest thing about the Mint Panel billing system is that is lets you bill clients how you want. You have the option to go with the traditional recurring monthly invoice, the increasingly popular pay-as-you-go model, or both. For example, you can charge customers $10 a month for a hosting plan or charge them based on factors such as total bandwidth, CPU or memory usage by the unit multiplier of your choosing. The Mint Panel billing system is completely customizable so you have a tremendous amount of flexibility.

Conclusion

Mint Panel is an all-one-control panel that can be useful in a wide range of environments. Aside from the qualities mentioned here, it also offers the secure and scalable platform needed to excel in the hosting business. Expect to hear more about this control panel as it continues to make its rounds and increase in popularity.
