“A boat doesn’t go forward if each one is rowing their own way.” — Swahili Proverb
Teamwork is essential for success in any field. If Cloudways has been successful in the truest sense of the word, it is because of a team of individuals who are working day and night to bring the easiest cloud hosting platform to you.
In order to be together, many individuals need to work on a similar platform. For example, we use Google Docs actively to produce the great content we share on our blog and other respected content mediums.
Say “Hello” to Teams
Since the launch of Cloudways Cloud Platform, clients, especially web design and development agencies, demanded for this feature repeatedly through our social media channels and on our feedback page.
After months of tweaking and testing, the ‘Teams’ feature is now ready for everyone’s use. Through this feature, you can choose from a variety of access types, you can give your team members.
How to Use the Teams Feature?
Just login to your Cloudways account. On the top navigation bar, you will see the new ‘Teams’ button. Just click on it and you will see the Teams’ Administration page.
On this page, you will see the ‘Add Team Member’ button. Click on it to add your team members. You will now see a form where you would need to fill in the required credentials and set the Status for the member, where “Enable” allows them to be a team member and “Disable” removes their access.
After this, you can define the kind of access you want to give to your team members:
Billing Access
Members having the access to this area will be able to view, download and pay invoices. This means you can easily add your finance manager in it and you won’t have to be troubled about paying for the services.
Support Access
Members having the access to this area will be able to create and manage support tickets. This means you can assign a team member to keep a check on support issues.
Cloud Console Access
You can choose one of the three
- Full Access: Under this, you can give full access to Cloud Console of all the servers to a team member of your choice. You won’t be able to access the Teams administration page.
- Limited Access: Under this, you can give the access to Cloud Console of selected servers to a team member. You won’t be able to see Teams page. Furthermore, you won’t be able to clone or delete servers.
- Block Access: Through this, you can stop a team member from accessing the Cloud Console.
