Different notification settings for available WordPress updates: Plugin, Theme or WordPress core
Email notifications to customers are sent on every available WordPress update, that's far too much. My clients don't take them for important anymore and don't update at all. I suggest to fine tune available settings in Tools & Settings > Notifications > APS application updates (customer’s digest): Different notification options if the available update is a WordPress Core update, a plugin update or a theme update. So for example the plugin and theme update notification could be turned off for customers, but WordPress core update notifications would be still sent.
Another suggestion would be an option to cutomize the FREQUENZY…

better backup priority settings to include nice and ionice
Currently it seems the backup priority only takes CPU into account and not I/O
I would prefer the backup low priority settings to be changed into specific values. For example
CPU PRIORITY -> Select Box with options 1-19
IO Class -> Select Box with options 1-3
IO Priority-> Select Box with options 1-71 means realtime and the higher the number the less important is the task.
Then this can be converted into custom commands depending on the user needs like:
nice -n{CPU PRIORITY} ionice -c{I/O CLASS} -n{I/O Priority} <backup task command>
For example one could set like this

Migrating sites copies across file permissions
Currenlty using the migration manager file permissions are not copied across. It would be good if file permissions were transferred or replicated else it is difficult to migrate sites without the customer being involved.

Clarify "Web Hosting Access", "Web Server Settings", and "Hosting Settings" in the Power User view
As an IT professional and software developer, I find the most confusing part of the panel to be the distinction between "Web Hosting Access", "Web Server Settings", and "Hosting Settings" in the Power User view.
Under "Web Hosting Access", it feels like "System user" and "Hard quota on disk space" make sense, but the "IP Addresses" setting is in the wrong place. I would think that the IP addresses would be configured under "Hosting Settings".
"Web Server Settings" page is a hodge-podge of both Apache and Nginx settings. Why not split this screen into separate…

More advanced anti-ddos interface and settings
This (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000784914-What-DDoS-protection-tools-are-available-in-Plesk) recently updated article shows that we still need paid extensions to better protect our servers against ddos attacks.
It would be great if Plesk would create a more advanced anti-ddos monitoring tool with a useful interface, alerts, and the right amount of settings to better protect our servers from ddos attacks without the need to install a third party extension with additional costs. Preferably created with "good defaults" in mind.

Option to restrict available application versions (e.g. WordPress 4.8.x only) via service plan settings (or subscription settings)
Option to restrict available application versions (e.g. WordPress 4.8.x only) via service plan settings (or subscription settings).
The use case is that we want to limit the options for the more inexperienced customer which represent the majority our customers. They have no need for a list of 15-20 versions to choose from, if they pick the "custom install" that is.
A secondary reason is the older versions are older versions for a reason. The older versions have unfixed security updates and optimizations. As a hosting provider you might want have the policy you only want installs of a certain…

Add max_connection to server-wide email settings
I frequently run into the problem not to be able to connect to my email server. The log shows: "Maximum connection limit reached"
If you have multiple email accounts, say for different domains, and you use them on your laptop, iphone and ipad, the connections sum up very quick one or the other can't connect anymore.
To get rid of this I'd like to have an option inside server wide email settings to be able to set MAXDAEMONS and MAXPERIP for courier-imap service, so I don't have to patch the
/etc/courier-imap/imapdmanually.4 votesOptions “Maximum number of connections (IMAP, POP3, IMAP over SSL/TLS, or POP3 over SSL/TLS)” and “Maximum number of connections for a user per IP address” already exists in server-wide Mail Settings in Plesk Onyx 17.8

Separate Hosting-Type setting from other hosting settings
In Plesk 12.5 users can only change the hosting type if they are also granted permissions to add CGI, Perl or other insecure options to their domain. While changing the hosting type is secure, all the other settings are insecure for the hosting company.
Users should be able to set their hosting type while they should not be able to change other hosting settings. It is very common that users change a redirect to a website and a website to a redirect. With the current mix of hosting type with other permissions it is impossible to let users choose…
