I'm a NOOB. Searching for a control panel for my VPS. I've done zpanel and canned it when I couldn't find a File Manager for it and FileZilla didn't work well with it either. I then tried a few other free control panels. Kloxo, Vesta Panel, etc. and they were all the same. Some slightly better than others, but all have one thing in common, they either don't have File Managers, or when they do, they are VERY iffy.
If you are looking for users, then File Manager would make a GREAT difference. There is a whole avalanche of VPS users that are on the rise from Windows environment, previously using shared hosting with cPanel/DirectAdmin and are searching for that ONE in a million control panel that provides an EFFICIENT File Manager that WORKS!
So yes, if you don't have people who can help create it, then better not to even try. But if and when you do, it would make a very big difference in the number of people who would sign up with you.
If you're just going to do what other control panels are going to do, you'll be one in more than a dozen of same control panels that people may look at (although people aren't as happy with zpanel any longer and Sentora would suffer because of its association). But if you are able to offer a File Manager that WORKS!!!!! Then you'll be ahead of those dozen and zPanel would have perfectly redeemed itself as well - or if it is done with Sentora only, you'll be definitely ahead of every one.
