Really the biggest difference in Ubuntu and CentOS is simply the package manager (yum vs apt-get).

We offer only CentOS as that's all cPanel supports which is the primary panel choice of our customers.

CentOS is the best one for web server use, however Ubantu is also best for local/desktop system work.
