Softaculous also offers Demos, Ratings, Reviews and screenshots of the various applications.
“We have been working really hard to make Softaculous, Webuzo and AMPPS the best applications in their respective categories,” said Pulkit Gupta, Softaculous founder and CEO, “and with version 4.0 of Softaculous and version 1.5 of AMPPS we are surely getting there. We have seen tremendous growth in the usage of AMPPS and some new features are also going to be released soon. At the same time some new products are also in the pipeline.”
To address the needs of different hosting providers, Softaculous is available as a Free product or as a Premium product. The Free version has only 60 apps while the Premium version currently has 260 Apps.
The Softaculous apps library already contains popular applications, including: WordPress, b2evolution, StatusNet, Drupal, Joomla, Concrete5, phpBB, MyBB, SMF, bbPress, Coppermine, Gallery, Mediawiki, DokuWiki, TikiWiki, Elgg, Dolphin, OpenX, SquirrelMail, LimeSurvey, Piwik, Mantis, SugarCRM, WHMCS, PrestaShop, Magento, CraftySyntax, osTicket, Moodle, Claroline, etc.
AMPPS can be used by Enterprises, SMB’s and Web Developers. Softaculous AMPPS is available as a Free product which can be installed on Microsoft Windows Desktop and Servers as well as on the Mac OS. AMPPS now has 260 Apps to serve the needs of different users. “AMPPS is specially beneficial to the Web Developers as they will not have to spend time installing Apache, MySQL, PHP, PERL, Python seperately and also they can install various blogs, cms, wikis, forums, etc. on their desktops by the click of a button. If you are a web developer and have not tried AMPPS, you have certainly not tried the best WAMP or MAMP stack” said Pulkit Gupta, COO of Softaculous Ltd.
Softaculous Apps are also available in the form of Virtual Appliances. The Virtual Appliances (called Webuzo) contain all the necessary server software required to power the various Apps. Webuzo is a LAMP stack with Softaculous installed on a CentOS Machine. Webuzo can help any user deploy Web Apps on their Desktops or in the Office.
