There's Ensim Power Tools - but their versions are usually so out of date as to not be worth installing.

Having said that, automated installs are very much the 2nd best option anyway with a manual install of the very latest version of software being the best option.

I do agree that Ensim is clunky, however don't underestimate the value of it when running sites in High Security Mode as a jailed cgi. It's far more secure than cPanel which regularly gets hacked.

However, in the not too distant future, I do expect Ensim to change. Now that it is owned by the same company that owns Plesk I think the future will be one where Ensim becomes more like Plesk, with Plesk taking on a few attributes of Ensim perhaps - resulting eventually in one product.

Way before then I expect Fantastico, which is available for Plesk, to become available on Ensim.
