Hi, Most of the cloud providers are offering free Plesk Onyx Control Panel which makes it really easy for people like me to start hosting websites really easily. I am so obsessed with Digital Ocean that i keep using trial versions of Plesk just to stay with Digital Ocean. Why is Digital Ocean not providing Plesk free of cost ?

Its Good News Digital Ocean is providing Plesk panel as FREE upto 3 domains since 2019.
Plesk on DigitalOcean (free) includes Plesk Web Admin Edition SE, a free version of Plesk with up to 3 domains and good for small websites and certain limitations. You can anytime upgrade with Plesk higher versions.
You can follow this official documentation for easier implementation. https://www.plesk.com/blog/product-technology/deploying-plesk-onyx-digitalocean-now-easier-ever/
Note: The free Plesk Web Admin SE bundled on DigitalOcean droplets includes 30 days of free support. Afterward, either a support subscription or an upgrade to either a Web Pro or Web Host edition is required for continuous support.
Thank you Ravi Rathod
Hello,
correct - Plesk has now published a one-click app based on DO’s Ubuntu 18.x environment. When you launch a droplet, just go to one-click apps -> Plesk on Ubuntu 18.x . It will take you about 1min to deploy after the post-install configuration of Plesk.
And yes, it’s a full Plesk version - with some limitations. But for any basic website project, it should be more than enough :-)
To see the full list of limitations (and how you can switch to a full Plesk on DO), please check https://www.plesk.com/upgrade/
thank you
