As some of you may know, WHMCS earlier this year changed their pricing structure pretty significantly. Previously, WHMCS customers could obtain a license with unlimited clients for $39/Month, and now their pricing structure has changed to a tiered model whereby you are billed based on the number of customers you have in your system:
$18.95/Month for 250 Active Customers
$29.95/Month for 500 Active Customers
$44.95/Month for 1,000 Active Customers
and so on…
Resellers and hosting providers have determined that the pricing of WHMCS can be quite absurd – the uncertainty can certainly raise a lot of doubt when it comes to business planning. A lot of people enjoy flat-rate pricing and peace of mind, and so they’re naturally seeking WHMCS alternatives. Not to mention, the fact that WHMCS got acquired by WebPros – which generally speaking means that the interest of investors is prioritized, rather than the community.
Clientexec is considered one of the top WHMCS alternatives, with active management and an active community base. Clientexec has been in development since 2003 and is one of the most established web hosting customer relationship management software still in existence and active development today.
When you compare Clientexec and WHMCS pricing side by side, here is what you’re looking at (notice how Clientexec’s pricing stays the same at every tier, even when you have an unlimited number of customers!)
Talk about a huge savings. From what we’ve been able to see, the features between WHMCS vs. Clientexec are quite comparable, and the features that hosting providers would actually use, are most likely already implemented in Clientexec today. In addition, the Clientexec team is actively implementing additional improvements to enhance the feature sets of their software, ensuring it continues to meet the needs of business owners.

I also enjoy using LEBs! I have an empire of little guys for VPNs, larger guys for apps, and big guys for databases and storage. When I'm not in front a screen I'm into German Shepherd dogs, quality knives, target shooting, theology, tabletop roleplaying games, and forest hiking.
I enjoy writing technical articles here on LowEndBox to help people get more out of their systems. You can find me on LowEndTalk @raindog308

If you got 100.000 clients, pay $1.000 USD for WHMCS license still worth it :D
I completely vouch for CE.I have been using them since 2015 and its a very robust platform with top notch customer support built within the admin dashboard of CE vide intercom. You dont even need to contact them on their website. Matt their CTO and Juan are readily available whenever I needed to resolve something. I use both blesta and CE and there are number of things that I can easily do in CE. The only backdrop for CE is in comparison to blesta is that blesta code is 99% open source. I thing that will change with the time but I never needed to do something custom as CE itself is awesome.
Hi @Waqass – absolutely agree with you.
Clientexec is backed by an awesome team, extremely helpful, and humble. We have enjoyed working with them and know that our end users will too. So many exciting upcoming features too. I can see their drive and wish them tons of success.
Great feedback, thanks for sharing, Waqass. Competition is good in the marketplace – everyone knows WHMCS, like cPanel, needs more competition.
Is there any coupon code for CE?
No. You can wait till November for black Friday deal ;)
