Is anyone aware of a tool that includes a front end that can partition the data on a per customer basis? Each customer would have their own login ID and only see their data?

User Management

# User based management allows administrators to create users and assign
different levels of permissions to the cacti interface.
# Permissions can be specified per-graph for each user, making cacti
suitable for co location situations.
# Each user can keep their own graph settings for varying viewing preferences.
