Is anyone here a beta tester for cPanel?

Just like all of you, I received cPanel end of the year newsletter... and in it, they mention that they are about to launch a new product and are open to new beta testers, or as they put it, be part of their research and development team.
Wondering if any of you is in the know...

    No. I don't use software which says you can have unlimited subdomains and can't follow through with it.

    I've been a beta tester for a while but I can't really disclose much, nor do I know what you're referring to, since cPanel's team is split by teams. UI, Backend, etc.

    I'm guessing you are referring to cPanel Solo. Well that isn't a new product, just a new license type where you can install it on a VPS or Dedi but you can only have 1 single cPanel account.

    And you can apply in the Google Form they have setup.

    That sounds like an interesting product, depending on price. Got a link?

    Edit: never mind, found it. Pricing isn’t attractive given its limitations.

    The survey to join does state they are only looking for those with cpanel servers hosting a single domain....

    Yep. It's been around a few months, pricing isn't brilliant though.

    $15.00/month for 1 site, or... $13.95 from BuyCPanel for a VM with coupon code. (WHT13XTRA?)

    I guess if you have a dedicated server literally hosting one powerful website it would make sense, but pricing is too expensive IMO.

    Already available for purchase (3rd selection)

    VM license for a dedicated server is only $15/mo. You'd have to be really busy to need that extra few percent of VM overhead. I suspect if your site is that busy, you would be using something other than cPanel.

    Not quite. You'd be surprised the sites that run cPanel. Not everyone runs a hypervisor with a VM to get licensing like we do. Most pay $34.95/mo or the stupider cPanel pricing.

    I'm sure some bare-metal users will pick this up, not an interesting offer though for any of us.
