"Simple and/or expandable web server"
Version: Abyss Web Server 2.6
Pros
Customizable web server... Aside from setting up port forwarding in the router, setting up this product is easy. The default installation will probably work great for most users, however, you have the ability to customize everything fairly easily.
Cons
I can't think of any cons of Abyss!!
Summary
I've been a user of this for quite a while, I just recently began using this as a web server for keeping track of the addresses of things I'm running from home, ie streaming TV, remote scheduling, and an ftp server. As a default install, it will serve HTML pages, but if you feel adventurous, you can add server side scripting languages (Perl, PHP, etc) using free and open source script packages- should you feel the need to implement these, you'll find what steps to take within the server's configuration pages.

"Solid, no fuss web server"
Version: Abyss Web Server 2.6
Pros
Reliable, easy to install, pretty easy to configure. I turned to Abyss after not getting far with IIS.
Cons
It can be easy to overlook the configure button for the website(s), and go into the General Abyss configuration instead and wonder where all the options are.
Summary
Love it. I have not pushed it very hard, so if there are limitations I haven't found them, but it does exactly what i want very easily.

"Simple and stable"

Pros
Run lightly even on old 386 machines, simple GUI and good support.
Cons
Not found a configuration import/export option.
-
"Great Software"
Version: Abyss Web Server 2.6
Pros
Set up is ok for someone who has never set up a server before, still learning.
Cons
Not idiot proof, but then idiots shouldn't try to set up servers.
Summary
I would recommend this to anyone wanting to set up a home server. If they have any knowledge of computer software and a friend to help it is real easy.

"Nice, lightweight, and robust"
Version: Abyss Web Server 2.6
Pros
Using it for Web development and it has exactly what I need: worked out of the box, supports SSI, custom mime types, minimizes to tray, works seamlessly across system sleeps/wakeups, and uses less than 1M of RAM.
Cons
Not a one so far.
Summary
Pretty sure will be using it 5 years down the road.
