    Sandstorm and Cloudron are very similar but Sandstorm is no longer a commercial venture. Since January 2024 Sandstorm has been available as free and open source software and is maintained by their Community.

    Sandstorm is rock solid technology, though it's not as actively developed as it once was.

    Webmin configures the OS with a GUI whereas Cloudron is a GUI front-end for Docker. They are not similar.

    Cloudrons main purpose is managing premade docker container. It will take care of installation, updates, backups and much more. Webmin on the other hand is a tool to help manage Linux servers. Completely different tools.

    Cloudron lets you install webservices like Nextcloud easily. Webmin is an UI for administer a server, not install and update apps.
