better breadcrumbs in plesk 12.5
have a issue with the new plesk12.5 interface. when you are logged in as a hosting administrator, making changes to a subscription or a domain, the breadcrumbs at the top of the page are not as good as they were in plesk 12.0
example...
in plesk 12.0 the breadcrumbs would red: "home->subscriptions->subscriptoinname->websites and Domains->domains.tld then state something like "Manage Log Files of domain.tld"in pleask 12.5, it now reads: home->doamins and then states something like "Logs of domain.tld"
this new style is not very helpful to move around.
it was MUCH MUCH MUCH better the way it was before...2 votesThis part of Plesk UI was seriously improved in latest Plesk Onyx 17.8 version. Please consider upgrade possibility.

Resource limit alerts when subscription approaching limit
Currently email alerts are only sent out when a subscription has breached a limit such as drive space utilisation.
Would be good if an alert could be sent out when the limits are being approached for example when a subscription is at 80% space utilisation. This will alert the owner that they need to take action before their site gets suspended.
2 votesYou probably need to set some value in “Notify me when the disk space usage reaches a value of:” in a service plan or subscription settings. They are exactly for this purpose.

Usability of the site should be improved
Sorry, it's less an idea than a complaint:
Simplify !
The current Plesk is so bad in usability that it is a reason not choose a hosting service. The learning curve for such a straight forward tool is way to high. I don't want to spend my time to learn a tool, but just do the job I am supposed to do.
So I suggest to get a usability expert with expert knowledge on webhosting to sort out the functions and their places where they are best to be located.
Example: Why would I search the webstatistics function inside the…2 votes“Security and Scripting” was renamed into “Hosting Settings” long ago, though you are probably not at the latest version.
