Instead of clicking in and out of different member groups and access areas, you have a grid (member groups are the columns, permissions the rows) where you can click circles to enable certain access.
HooKan is in beta right now but up for sale for $17 (this is noted as an introductory offer until October 15th). The normal price is $34.95.
