Choosing the Right Software

WebQuota or WebQuotaISP ???

There are two versions of WebQuota. Depending upon your system configuration, you will either want to choose WebQuota or WebQuotaISP. What is the difference?

WebQuotaISP

WebQuotaISP allows the administrator to create sub-administrator groups. This is important if you want to have several different groups of administrators on the same server, but with limited access to eachother's content.

    Examples of situations where you will want to use WebQuotaISP: You are an ISP hosting several different websites on a shared server. Each websites wants to administer their own usernames/passwords using browser based Remote Administration. You do not want each client to have access to the other clients' administration priviledges.

    In this case, you (as the 'Main Administrator') would set up each client as a 'SubAdministrator'-and give them access only to their content directories. You administer your company's website content. You have several divisions, and each division manager wants to manage their own access to online content. The same philosophy above applies here. You are a project manager, and you want to give each subcontrator full administration abilities to only certain parts of the project content. Again, you would set up the system making each subcontrator a subadministrator as well.

    Click Here if any of the above applies to you. You need WebQuotaISP.

Standard WebQuota

WebQuota installs on the server, and allows the administrator(s) permissions to control access over all files and directories on the server.

If you only want one administration group to control access to all access permissions for the online content, then standard WebQuota. is the best product for you.
