Hi All,

Is MSP instance and a Standalone instance with Domain Separation plugin activated Same? Or are there any differences between MSP instance and a Standalone instance with Domain Separation plugin activated.

Thanks.

Dear Harish,

 

@harishvsnow , hope you're doing great! 

 

The main difference between an MSP instance and a stand-alone domain-separated instance is that an MSP instance is designed to support multiple customers, while a stand-alone domain-separated instance is designed to support a single customer.

MSP instances typically have a number of features that make them well-suited for managing multiple customers, such as:

  • The ability to create and manage multiple domains, one for each customer
  • The ability to share resources between customers, such as users, groups, and applications
  • The ability to isolate customer data from each other

Stand-alone domain-separated instances do not have these features, but they are typically more affordable and easier to manage than MSP instances.

 

Short answer:

MSP instances are designed to support multiple customers, while stand-alone domain-separated instances are designed to support a single customer.

 

Kindly, please mark my solution as Helpful/Correct, if applicable. 

 

Thanks & Regards,
