About the Application Packaging Standard - APS
The Application Packaging Standard, APS, is an open, industry standard backed by some of the largest names in the web hosting space. This specification allows any software developer to package their web application for use by any software that supports the standard - including APSpanel. This means that developers of the web applications your customers want, like Wordpress and Drupal, can submit updated versions of their software for inclusion in APSpanel as soon as new versions are released. Additionally, the APS standard includes features not found in other web software managers like Fantastico, such as verification of installation requirements, customizable installation forms, and the ability to upgrade packages that have already been installed.
