    Oh yeah they stopped the re-newal fees as "Like 99% of population we hate renewal fees. So we no longer charge it from current and future customers - pay only for features you want!"

    But oh this looks so awesome never seen this on their pricing before... More ways to get blood out of a stone:

    Tickets included ---- Price ----- Price per ticket ----- Package valid

    1 ticket ------------ $75 USD --- $75 USD --------------- N/A

    5 tickets ----------- $199 USD -- $39 USD --------------- ticket Valid for 6 months

    15 tickets ---------- $399 USD -- $26 USD --------------- ticket Valid for 12 months

    50 tickets ---------- $999 USD -- $20 USD --------------- ticket Valid for 12 months

    Oh and:

    Pre-Sales that's just $99.95.

    Then for everything else it's $199.57 USD Once per item including cPanel...

    So which one is better? Not HB by far.

    If HB kept their prices around $300 and didn't change prices every other day and didn't charge for support, they would be much higher up there for the higher-end dedicated/colo stuff like Ubersmith, but again the issue lies in the owner's bipolar business practices. If you have to wake up every morning asking yourself if your house loan is randomly going to change this pay period, you need to get the hell away as fast as possible.

    Renew what? HB only have Owned Unbranded Licenses LOL 

    We bought our license for $200, and yet never had to pay nothing more...

    If they constantly change the price, it's their problem, it is up to the buyer, the best time to buy.

     

    Except the guy at Hostbill could very easily change the cost and decide to charge a renewal fee. He's done it already before. A few people have said they bought a license like yours and he suddenly wanted more money from them.

    You use or used HB?

     

    It's not fair when speaking ill of one of the best billing systems.
    It's expensive, yes we all know, but if you want to will have to pay.
    It's like a car, you can have a Renault, but if want to have a Mercedes, you'll have to pay much more.
    We really like Blesta, but why we'll use Blesta if we do not have the required modules?
     
    Just seems strange, it is because no one speaks of Ubersmith? much more expensive than HB, but however is preferred of the large enterprises.

     

    Nobody speaks of Ubersmith because they don't have a wheel they spin every 2 hours to see if they change prices or not. Sorry, but I'm not looking to play "The Price is Right" every time I load up a billing software's website. Sure hostibll is advanced and has these awesome dedicated modules blah blah, but the guy is so bipolar that I'd be scared for my business. Who's to say next year when you have to renew there isn't a $599 fee again that you have no choice but to pay, and if you don't pay it you don't get your data, and then you cannot migrate to other software etc? With the price changes daily, that's definitely something that moron that codes Hostbill is capable of doing.

     

    COME ON DOWN, YOU'RE THE NEXT CONTESTANT ON THE PRICE IS RIGHT!

    Well yeah header/footer is what I'm looking for. Seems like the css may need some specific tweaking though as I did my best and things just don't work well for some reason. If you're up for it I'd like to get it done though!

    Anyone selling site integration for blesta yet? I'm awful with coding, I've followed the guide in the Contribute section but the CSS doesn't play nicely with Blesta at all from what I gather.

     

    Would be awesome! Don't plan to use it in production for a while but I want a fully usable mockup so it's easier when I do migrate off of WHMCS.
