Yes, the stack does seem to run slower on all Windows installs 
The manual upgrade has worked 100% on my production server.
Where I am so far:
Already have the files ready to be packaged up.
Finish off the DB update SQL - need to make an SQL query to find/replace all ZPanel, Zpanel, zpanel, and zpanelcp.com to Sentora, Sentora, sentora, and sentora.org respectively. (I did this manually on an SQL dump and worked fine, want to try to automate it)
(May also work out a way to convert the DB from zpanel_ to sentora_)
Create a tutorial.
So, it is a little way off from completion for the public, but it is in working condition at this point manually. (Advanced admins should be able to do it as is.)
Testers will be needed
As mentioned, the stack does need updating also..
I tried to do a manual upgrade to php 5.6 but couldn't get apache to start
But apache, mysql and hmailserver should be updated too.
phpmyadmin and roundcube updates will be left for the server admins to update on their own. -very easy if you follow their instructions.
