    Default Softaculous or Installatron

    I'm considering of installing either Installatron or Softaculous .Both are looking good to me Softaculous and Installatron both operate happily alongside other auto-installers and third-party software,and also both provides faster updates unlike other Auto Installers.But Softaculous provides 200 scripts which is great from the customer point of view ,also very reasonable in pricing as compared to Installatron and it is easy in configuration than Installatron.So should I go with Softaculous or Installatron please help me guys?

    It is always recommended to use Softaculous as it offers its own custom scripts which can not be done in many of the other popular script installers which makes it very handy no matter you have custom compiled scripts for any users, or shopping carts and forums etc.

    I prefer Softaculous over Installatron because it is easy to configure
    Think in Softaculous

    I like both equally, but Softaculous seems to have more customers. It's probably because it is cheap and contains bunches of scripts with easy installer. There is also Fantastico De Luxe, which is probably the best, with Softaculous coming right after.

    My vote goes to Softaculous. It offers more scripts for installation including the paid scripts (demo, license can be purchased and activated) and is easier to install and use.

    Softaculous is much better in comparison to Fantastico as well as Installatron. It is being constantly updated and more and more scripts are being added to it. It offers the installation of most of the scripts which are used and hence is more preferred.

    Softaculous provides the most scripts and faster/easier installations, so I would probably say it is the winner of competition among auto script installers. Fantastico and Installatron are good, but Softaculous is the best.

    I vote for Softaculous, since it offers more than 200 free to install scripts. Softaculous has covered a wide range of categories to offer various scripts and is compatible with many web hosting control panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, H-Sphere, etc... It is a basic product that comes free with cPanel web hosting plans.

    We've chosen Installatron after trying both for a while. We found it more reliable and the new version makes a leap in the right direction.

    I can't say that I've personally used either. Just stuck with Fantastico or installed the individual pieces of software myself. Think I'll take a look at both of these and consider them .
