Managing Users

This Article Applies to:

  • Avast Business CloudCare

IMPORTANT: The CloudCare console does not support opening multiple tabs in the same browser session. Please use multiple browsers or incognito mode instead.

 

The Customer List section of the CloudCare Console enables you to view, add, edit, and remove your console users and customers.

You can also add customers and/or users from the Dashboard quick-access bar. If you are a direct or self-managed user, you can add additional users from the Dashboard or on the Account tab by clicking All Users in the left-hand navigation pane.

There are three partner user types and two customer user types:

  • Partner User Types: Primary Administrator, Partner Administrator, Partner User
  • Customer User Types: Master Administrator, Group Administrator

Note that it is not possible to add more than one Primary Administrator or Master Administrator to the console.

For more details on the differing permissions, see Partner vs. Customer User Permissions.
