>>What do you mean to make a software multi-companies? How would SDT or a tool like that would know the different needs of different companies (but I don't know what SDT does really). If needs are same then it is already multi-companies, no?

That is the user wants to create a new company then I create a copy of the database to another DB and in the future when the app is launched I ask which company needs to use the app. That's why I'm wondering if SDT could still manage this multi-companies thing.
