Still, when you click download it provides a free one month trial, once it expires they ask you to buy their reseller hosting, so i went ahead and purchased it. Since it a modified version of sentora, I asked for the source code and they have denied proving the same, which is a violation of the GPL license (this is what i understood reading it). Also with their distributed binaries, they haven't mentioned anything about GPL.It's concerning to see companies misrepresenting GPL-licensed software and forcing users to purchase services to access modified versions, undermining the principles of open-source transparency and accessibility.
I have attached a link to their site: https://www.ovipanel.in/.
I just felt like making this thread since they r forcing people to buy stuff from them so that they can use the modified software. They pretend that it's their software, and will allow you to use if free if you buy servers form them.
