The Plesk GUI

Plesk tools for performing server and account management tasks are
divided between three web interfaces called panels: Server
Administration Panel, Reseller Panel, and Customer Panel:

• The Server Administration Panel is in charge of server maintenance
  and accounts management. Web hosting operations are also available in
  this panel.
• The Reseller Panel is a reduced version of the Server
