Scheduled tasks Add user dropdown
When logged in with the main admin/root account click in the right hand column on "Scheduled Tasks" takes me to the Cron jobs that I can setup.
There is no indication as what system user will run the task? This has cuased a couple of my crons to fail and struggled to find the issue.
Eventually I found I needed to under Main nav - Server tab then to Scheduled Tasks.. this takes me to the users lists that I can set cons for specific users.
Very confusing!
1 voteIn Plesk 12.5, you can select the system user while creating a scheduled task. A drop-down menu was added for that purpose.
Note: You can specify a system user only for server-wide scheduled tasks, but not for scheduled tasks of a webspace (subscription). The system user of a webspace is used to run scheduled tasks of a webspace, and that user cannot be changed.

Order Webspace dropdown by A-Z
It would be quicker to find webspaces in the webspace dropdown if they were ordered by alphabetically A-Z. At the moment they appear to be ordered by created at time, which when you have a long list of webspaces can take a while to pick the exact one you're after.

Windows shared server quick start app pool
Currently from my chat with tech support, there is no way other than contacting someone to start the app pool once it stops. I'm not asking for the functionality to stop/restart the app pool as I can understand how that would affect other websites on a shared host. I feel like it would be super useful to have a button to do a start on the app pool if it has indeed stopped to avoid downtime while requesting the app pool be started through support.
1 voteAt the moment you can start/stop/recycle application pool in Tools&Settings>IIS Applications Pool. In upcoming Plesk 12/5 you will be automatically offered start app pool when you open this page in case if it is stopped for some reasons.

Exploit Scanner
I suggest you to integrate Plesk with an exploit scanner tool, just like cPanel does with http://configserver.com/cp/cxs.html
This kind of tools help hosting companies in a big degree, saving time and efforts on exploits detection and removal.
1 voteIf someone wants to integrate another exploit scanning tool with Plesk, they are free to use Plesk SDK. We can publish the resulting extension in our the extension catalog (ext.plesk.com).
Since Plesk already has a Watchdog extension with built-in rkhunter, we’re closing this request as already done.

Hi,
We have Shared Windows Hosting servers. Default trust level is Medium and Plesk not allowing will change by customer. Good. But!
Our some customers want use the "Full Trust" in their project and I will want give this level to their.
Our suggestion; Medium Trust Level (or any) could be used by default and our customers can not their Trust Level. But we can change the Trust Level of the domain we want.
I hope.
Best regards
We
1 voteCustomers can change trust level for each their site in case the “Allow to override the CAS trust level for websites” option is switched on by the administrator in Tools & Settings > ASP.NET Settings.
