At the least, with a control panel you know what you need to watch out for and how to secure it. If you're on a server where the host is doing everything by hand, there's a chance that host will make a mistake every single time he adds a domain, or a mysql database or an email address to the server. And if he's using his own scripts to do that stuff, you have no idea what might be going wrong in those scripts that you can't see.

As dynamic as things are right now, it's just not acceptable to have to call, or write to someone and wait every time you want to add a new domain to your account, change an email address or modify something else in your account.

Post a poll anywhere and ask how many people would prefer to submit a ticket and wait for their host to add domains for them, and how many prefer to click a button, type a name, and be on their way. I think you already know what kind of response you'll get.
