Understanding client accounts

Learn how to enable secure, independent workspaces with client accounts for tailored reporting, centralized management, and streamlined collaboration.

Client accounts enable agencies to create secure, isolated workspaces tailored to individual client needs. This structure facilitates customized tracking, reporting, and management while maintaining strict data security. By organizing client accounts hierarchically within an agency account, agencies can centralize control, streamline workflows, enhance data visibility, and simplify collaboration.

What are client accounts?

Client accounts are secure, independent workspaces designed to meet the specific needs of individual clients. These accounts allow agencies to centralize data, deliver tailored reporting, and ensure privacy while maintaining streamlined management across all clients.

Core Functionality

  • Independent and Secure Workspaces: Each client account functions as its own workspace, ensuring strict data isolation and privacy, preventing cross-client visibility, and safeguarding sensitive information.
  • Centralized Management: Agencies can oversee multiple client accounts efficiently through a single agency account, maintaining full control over configurations while managing individual client needs.
  • Customized Reporting: Build personalized Databoards, metrics, and goals aligned with each client’s unique objectives.

Additional Benefits

  • Agency Branding: Apply your branding to client accounts with the White Label add-on for a professional, seamless client experience.
  • Scalable Workflows: Use templates to replicate Databoards, and slide presentations efficiently across multiple accounts.
  • Flexible Collaboration: Agencies can share access securely with clients or manage reporting entirely from the agency side, based on client preferences.

Access Management

Access to client accounts is managed by the agency at the account level. Agencies can specify which users can access or manage a client account during its creation or through subsequent edits.

Assign an account manager

An account manager is an agency user responsible for managing the client relationship and performing any necessary setup to enhance the client’s reporting process.

Each client account must have an account manager assigned at all times. This role is initially set during the account creation process but can be updated later if needed.

To change the account manager for a client account:

  1. Navigate to Account Management > Clients and locate the desired client account.
  2. Click Edit, then select the General tab.
  3. Select the agency user to assign as the new account manager from the dropdown menu.
  4. Click Save to confirm the changes.

Once a client account is on a trial or active subscription, additional users can be added by both the agency and client users with appropriate permissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are account managers treated differently in terms of access and permissions?

No, account managers do not receive any additional permissions within the client account. All agency users granted access to the client account automatically inherit the Admin role while logged in, regardless of whether they are assigned as the account manager.

How do I unlink a client account or move a standalone account under my agency?

These actions can only be performed by our team. Admins from both accounts must contact us directly with the necessary details, and we will make the required changes on the backend.
