annual conference to include the WebPros brands! Plesk®, WHMCS®,

said Ken Power, Vice President of Product Development at cPanel. “Building
on the success of the cPanel Conference by inviting the communities of Plesk,
WHMCS, and SolusVM is the perfect next step!”
Monday, September 23rd: Certification Day
“The WebPros Summit will expand on the cPanel Conference in
a couple of fundamental ways,” said Jesse Asklund, Director of Support at
cPanel. “One of them will be to include a full day of certifications from
a variety of industry-leading companies in hosting.”
Monday of
WebPros Summit,
historically solely an arrival day for attendees, will have certification
seminars that allow attendees to expand their knowledge and become certified in
some of the most common software in hosting. Beginning with the WebPros Summit,
standards like JetBackup, Imunify360, LiteSpeed, and Plesk
will all join cPanel in offering on-site training and testing for
Certifications to attendees.
“On Certification Day, we are bringing the Plesk University
experience into the classroom, where our students can engage with a Plesk
expert face-to-face and get the answers to their questions.” Ivan Butorin,
Manager of Education at Plesk. “If you have been putting away your Plesk
learning, or want to know how to get started with the next version of Plesk,
this will be the perfect opportunity to learn and become one of the first
certified Plesk Obsidian Professionals in the world.”
These exams will be available to the entire industry after the
Summit through the cPanel
UniversityTM or Plesk
UniversityTM sites. Summit attendees hoping to participate in Certification
Day need only indicate that they will be there as they register for the Summit.
Two Full Days of Talks
With topics from technical to business, the robust three-track agenda provides accessible choices for every person in the
industry. The days are packed with keynotes from members of the i2Coalition,
WebPros, and an exciting surprise keynote on Tuesday. They’ll also include
talks for building your product offerings, mergers and acquisitions, making the
best of your current lineup, and lots of other helpful topics.
“Although we’ve been part of cPanel Conference for many
years, I’m excited to be part of the WebPros Summit,” said Matt Pugh, CEO
of WHMCS. “Web hosting is a fast-moving industry, and the WebPros Summit
caters to attendees of all different experience levels with a huge range of
informative and educational talks.”
The full agenda is live on the WebPros Summit Site.
Open Source Alley
Open Source Alley is an exciting new addition to this event and
provides access to exhibitors representing some of the most popular open source
projects in the web hosting industry. MySQL, Dovecot, Exim, CentOS, and The
Apache Foundation will be exhibiting at this year’s WebPros Summit.
“As an industry built on open source software, it is only
logical that we support and give back to the software we all rely on every
day,” said Nick Koston, CEO of cPanel. “This is just an extension of
the ways that cPanel and Plesk already back the open source industry, and we
are excited to strengthen the bonds between these projects and the rest of our
community.”
Exhibitors and Sponsors
One of the goals of this event is to connect the attendees with
companies that they want to talk to, and this year is no different. With the
Summit fast-approaching, we are happy to welcome some new and returning
sponsors. Exhibiting this year will be JetBackup, ImunifyAV, LiteSpeed,
Verisign, Bitninja, BoldGrid, Halon, ICC, RackSpace, and Monarx.
