    They are as unmanaged as you get, basically here's your server now have at it good luck. You can pay to get your CPanel if that's what you're choosing installed and maybe they sell with it already installed now I forget, but once you've got the server you're on your own. You can hit the chat and won't get many answers but plenty of offers of guys willing to sell you their services to manage for you, and the forums they have are moderately helpful.

          If it says it's installed then yes, but you'll have to figure everything out yourself from start to finish, and once you mess with it, it's not so bad but it's not for everyone. You'll have virtually no downtime ever and if you can figure out what you're doing it's going to be cheap and fairly reliable.

            I have 3 jears experience (used it) with cpanel so that would be no problem, looks like a pretty good deal to me then:D

              Yep cpanel is installed...

              But make sure to put a TT in when you've entered your domains so that they get installed in the DNS servers. They have a habit at times for that to take too long. Probably from the way they handle it.

                Mike, your experience with them must have been awful.
                It must have left a serious scar. I think i've seen you post

                  I have two boxes with Ensim and have been very happy. I have had no major problems and started with zero server knowledge.
