What's New in This Version of Your Plesk Control Panel

Plesk 8 offers you the following new features and enhancements:

Brand-new Desktop interface option - Plesk 8 boasts quick and efficient task-oriented desktop, while retaining the ability to use old, traditional interface.

Enhancement in Backup and Restore Utilities - backup files are no more digitally signed, which allows you to migrate your domains from one server to another. Applications installed on your site are now migrated too.

Domain Aliases support - you can now set up alternative domain names, which act as aliases for websites, and modify their DNS zone records.

SSL support for subdomains - you can now secure subdomains with Secure Sockets Layer protection.

Protection of cgi-bin directory - you can now password protect your cgi-bin directory - the directory where your CGI scripts are stored.

SOA DNS records management - in this version you can manage Start of Authority (SOA) DNS records through Plesk Control Panel.
