Power to the HQ

Foundry Control Center (FCC) is an inbuilt function for use by the central administrator only. FCC enables administrators to administer thousands of sites from one single area, whilst the daily maintenance is distributed to the local managers. Administrators can create a new website with a few clicks of a mouse and then after a few minutes, the new site managers will receive an E-mail that guides them to their newly created website via a wizard-driven interface. Remote sites cannot be produced without being created centrally, but when they are, it is the initiatives on the local level that make them thrive.
