It's going to be hard for those who run cPanel VPS like me too. I have been paying a flat fee of $5 per month for my cPanel in VPS. Both of these price changed haven't effected me since my provide has some sort of agreement with cPanel. So in the mail they said as long as it's and old client and have less than 200 accounts we won't have to pay more.
They only do it because they know they almost have monopoly in the market. Last time people panicked but many decided to stay but I think this time things gonna change. Anyone who has to pay 30 or more per month might move to DirectAdmin since they offer unlimited accounts for 30 usd/Mon. For small like Medium size developers who take care of clients hosting will find direct admin is pretty good. They don't have too many features like cPanel but I think now it's pretty good for the price. You can check their user and Admin account demos here,
Here's the discussion about this at cPanel forum. Some will stick with cPanel but this time they will loose some big business.
We are too used to cPanel so it's so hard for us to get used to any other panel. Right now I'm testing CeyberPanel and wanting to sort of few problems I have. I might totally move to that one in future.
