BOINC Account Managers

A BOINC Account Manager is a 3rd party website through which you can set up your BOINC, attach to multiple projects at the same time and in the case of Grid Republic also download a BOINC version with everything you set up pre-installed.

Comparison between options:

Without an Account Manager: - Find BOINC projects by word-of-mouth or using a search engine. - Attach to a project by bringing up the 'Attach Project Wizard' in the BOINC Manager, and entering the URL and your email address and password. You must do this separately at each of your computers. - Change your account details on each project web site, separately. - Set resource shares at each project web site, separately. - Create/join/quit teams at each project web site, separately.

With account manager: - See all BOINC projects, old and new, listed and described at the account manager. - Attach to a project with one mouse click. If you have multiple computers, all of them will be attached. - Change your account details (name, email address, password) in one web page, at the account manager. - Set resource shares for all projects in one web page, at the account manager. - Create/join/quit teams in one web page, at the account manager.
