Database-per-Tenant Isolation

Our platform implements database-per-tenant architecture where each MSP agency has their own separate database. User-account controlled access ensures each MSP can only access their own data through secure authentication. This provides complete data isolation between different MSPs using our platform, with no shared database infrastructure between agencies.
