We are currently using the Plesk 9.0 for Windows server Control Panel. As we wait for the Cpanel for Windows which will hopefully be released sometime this year, we are currently evaluating our options with Plesk 9.0. Below is my IMHO findings about Plesk :
a. No PMM (Plesk Migration Manager) for us to be able to change Mail servers one day.
b. MailEnable still doesn't support IMAP , which we would greatly need for a server when customers asks for SquirrelMail or equivalent.
c. SquirrelMail is in the additional software page but sadly again , back to (b) , Plesk doesn't have IMAP support unless otherwise you would buy the software from them (*sigh*)
d. Unlike Linux (which is opensource) and we are very happy with our other server to use Cpanel, their scripts / fixes are very hard to run especially on CLI(command line interface)
e. Plesk data file operates on a separate mysql table / database which is much of a hassle when tracing what went wrong on a particular domain / account.
f. No grant privileges for MYSQL unlike Cpanel for Windows were you can choose which privs you want for each database user.
If there are other things that I did not mention, please do drop a comment or two. Feedback is very much welcome.
