After logging in to Plesk, you will be presented with the Plesk graphical interface. Various tools and controls that can help you run your business are organized by function and arranged into sections, which are displayed on the left side of the screen.
When you log in, you will land on the Home section. From there, you can navigate to different sections depending on the task you need to accomplish. Below is a short description of the sections and the tasks that can be performed in each one:
The Home section provides a high-level view of your account. It displays important information, such as the amount of disk space and traffic your account is currently using compared to the maximum allowed amount (note that this includes both your subscriptions and those of your customers), or how many customers are exceeding their allotted resources. It also includes a list of all subscriptions you own, the name of the reseller plan you are subscribed to, the number of subscriptions and service plans you have created, and more.
The Customers section allows you to view and manage your customers. To onboard a client, you will need to create a customer account, which you can do in this section. You can add or remove customer accounts, suspend and activate them, and change their settings.
The Domains section lists all domains on your account, including domains that you own and those of your customers. Here you can add or remove domains, subdomains, and domain aliases. You can also suspend and activate them, as well as change their hosting settings.
The Subscriptions section contains all subscriptions on your account, including both your own subscriptions and those of your customers. It is important to note that one customer can own multiple subscriptions and each subscription can have more than one domain. In this section, you can add or remove subscriptions, suspend and activate them, change the service plan for one or more subscriptions, reassign them to a different customer, and change their settings.
The Service Plans section allows you to manage your service plans. You can add, clone, or remove plans and add-on plans, as well as change their settings.
The Tools & Utilities section includes a variety of useful tools that can help you monitor your resource usage and change various account settings. You can also use this section to back up websites belonging to you and your customers, and customize the branding of Plesk to match your company’s image.
The WordPress section allows you to view and manage WordPress installations on your own subscriptions and those of your customers. You can manage WordPress installations either from this section or from the subscription settings screen.
The Change Password section allows you to change the password you use to log in to Plesk. It is important to note that you cannot change your username. If you want to change your username, you will need to contact your provider.
The Interface Preferences section allows you to change your language preferences and select your interface view.
