User Management
Overview¶
With the user management system, you can define user groups and various access rights for the features of Confire Cloud.
When it comes to managing permissions, there are two main differences between the editions of Confire Cloud:
Lite¶
The Lite Edition offers two user roles: "Admin" and "Non-Admin." Users with the "Non-Admin" role do not have access to user management. Therefore, only users with administrator rights can create or delete other users.
To define permissions for individual features per user, you need the Professional Edition.
