We started using Helm a few months ago and have come to depend on it, we like it so much we became a reseller for it. As far as Windows type hosting control panels go our opinion is that it's the best out there, especially for the price.
It could use some more Imail control though, things it really lacks are: No size control over mail boxes or emails No webmail "admin" account # of email accounts allowed for that host is handled by Helm, not Imail No support for rules It sets up the domain and creates one account named "mail" and makes it a catch-all account. We've suggested that they auto add an abuse alias and forward both that and the "root" user to the "mail" user. All in all though it is a very nice app and the price is reasonable compared to other hosting control panels, and if you're a host it will save you a ton of time creating domains in IIS, DNS zones, Email, FP extensions, FTP accounts, etc... And once your customers have learned how to use Helm it'll save you a lot of time spent doing things like changing user's FP or FTP passwords or explaining to customers how to use webmail to create additional email accounts. Hope that helps.
