User and Space Management

This section describes ReachLite’s ‘Spaces’ and how to manage them and their users.

What is A Space?

A ‘Space’ is the collection of Apps, Submissions, Data Sources, and other ReachLite elements, that belong to a certain user. A user’s Space is where they house all of the data they work with. Depending on your service plan, you have a certain number of Apps, Submissions, and other elements that you can have in your Space at a certain time. You can track your Space activity within ReachLite and manage all of your data seamlessly. Your Space also allows you to collaborate with other users by exchanging Apps and Submissions.

Everything that you do in ReachLite, you will do in your Space. Once you create an account for the first time, spend some time exploring the application and get a feel for what it is all about. Of course, everything you see in the application is explained in this manual.
