Introduction

MotionTools is a multi-tenancy system, and each Operator typically has their own tenant. This means that each Operator has their own set of users, data, and a custom configuration that reflects the nature of their business.

A tenant is identified by a custom URL for users to browse to and a so-called Company ID, which needs to be entered in the driver app before logging in. A typical URL would be examplecompany.motiontools.io, whereas the company ID would then also be examplecompany.

MotionTools offers white-labeling features, so that the MotionTools brand itself won't be visible to customers of operators that use MotionTools as their operating system.


Learn more about Multi-tenancy

Software multitenancy is a software architecture in which a single instance of software runs on a server and serves multiple tenants. Systems designed in such a manner are "shared" (rather than "dedicated" or "isolated"). A tenant is a group of users who share a common access with specific privileges to the software instance.

With a multitenant architecture, a software application is designed to provide every tenant a dedicated share of the instance, including its data, configuration, user management, tenant individual functionality, and non-functional properties. Multitenancy contrasts with multi-instance architectures, where separate software instances operate on behalf of different tenants. Read more on Wikipedia.
