- Weblogs and Templates can be accessed across Sites
- Intuitively organized Control Panel
- Independent Preferences per site
- Specialty Templates per Site (Login screens, member profiles, etc...)
- Modules are Site Agnostic so any Site can use any Module.
Requirements

- All Sites must reside on the same server
- If using sub-domains or domains, directories must be able to access your main installation system directory. Please see Setup Domains and Sub-domains for more information.
- License holder must be the owner of all Sites
