Currently the big reason pro ejabberd is: it is the only open-source Jabber 
server with full XMPP compliancy.

Tkabber supports it AFAIK.

You can preview a read-only version of ejabberd's web interface at:
http://ejabberd.jabber.ru/online-demo-webadmin
Notes:
* The web interface of ejabberd 1.0.0 looks 99% the same as that of ejabberd 
0.9.8.
* The demo is only available in English, while in the real version there are 
more languages.
