Manage Client Users | Zoho Sprints Help

Manage client users

Clients usually imply your customers who seek business solutions from you or partners or stakeholders who collaborate with you in your business. They are not part of your organization but need to have a certain level of visibility to the proceedings of your projects.

NotesNote: Users with Admin profile can add client company and client users.

Let's assume your firm develops scheduling and ticketing software for private tourism companies. Those companies are your clients and they need to keep track of progress of the software development and maintenance process. Zoho Sprints enables clients a limited level of access to information, allowing them to monitor the progress of work. This eliminates the burden of having to share status reports with your clients periodically and facilitates immediate feedback from them, reducing the risk of rework and delayed delivery.

Default client profiles

These clients will have minimal access within the team. You receive 5 default client user licenses for free. If you need to add more users, you will need to purchase a user license for each one of them.

Client users with no portal access
  1. You can add up to 15 clients who are a part of your team, but without access to the portal.
Customized client profiles
  1. You can customize your client profiles by granting and restricting their access within the team. You will need to purchase a user license to customize a client's profile.
