You might need to do a bit of CLI work if you want to support multiple VLANS or other slightly advanced features. I'm lazy but I might get around to patching the web UI at some point to support the stuff I do manually. The OpenVZ docs are very clear and the process is pretty trivial to do on the CLI.I've used OpenVZ at many sites and been really happy with it. Managing OpenVZ from the CLI is easy. I wrote wrapper scripts to perform the desired functions. It has extensive documentation available. From a documentation point of view it really stands out among OSS and even commercial apps.
Make sure you have sized the beancounters (resource limits) for your applications and workload. With the default beancounter settings, a default centos5 install of postfix (100 process max -- per service, ie 100 smtpd and 100 smtp) or dovecot (100 each for imap/pop3, etc.) you will run into limits very quickly. Using vzsplit helps a lot.
