Stability was an issue with webten,but I have seen people claim stability issues with webstar also. I felt itwas easier for me to train other people on one server software instead oftwo. So I changed my rep server out to webstar in prep for OS8.5. Theadmin of the webten server is more complex because they give you way moreoptions of things to fiddle with :). I never tried it with webcatalog.
