Both Plesk and Cpanel are really good in my experience (I used them on my dedicated servers - your needs may be different if it is virtual hosting). If this is for a dedicated server, you may want to look into which is likely to have the quickest updates and patches when new versions of system software come out (especially security patches), since in many cases you cannot simply upgrade the individual programs manually without potentially breaking the panel.
I use Cpanel right now, and it's been a while since I had Plesk, so I'm not sure what Plesk is like compared to a few years ago. My impression is Cpanel does have a lot more features and extras - though whether you need those extras depends on if you'll use them or not. For all the main basic stuff like managing domains, email, etc, both do equally well. I would say compare the features, and decide if just the extra features are worth the cost.
