Managing Tenants and MSPs
The MSP Portal allows Managed Service Providers to manage customer portals (tenants). It is possible to create new tenants and set their license package, as well as license add-ons. For Top-level MSP, it is also possible to add child-MSP tenants (sub-tenant) that allows smaller providers to manage their customers.
