Here are the descriptions of our user types in CloudTalk, as well as an authorization overview for each user's access to dashboard features.


User Levels

User levels in CloudTalk create clarity for a user's role in your company. They strengthen the security posture of your organization by ensuring that employees have access only to the materials they need to perform job duties. In CloudTalk, we have five types of users within our dashboard:

  • Administrators (Admin)

  • Admin Partners

  • Supervisors

  • Analysts

  • Agents

When configuring users for your account, it is helpful to understand the purpose behind each user type so that you can map appropriate types to employees in your company.

Administrators (Admin)

Admin have the highest level of access privilege. They are able to configure global account settings and add or remove other users. Admin users are typically the account executives, account managers, technical managers or integration specialists who are responsible for your company's implementation with CloudTalk.

Admin Partners

Not every company has admin partner users. These only exist in company configurations where billing for your organization is handled by a different entity or "partner" account.

An admin partner user only has access to billing and number request information for their connected accounts, as this relates to their primary role.

Supervisors

Supervisors have some access privileges which agents do not, but they don't have the level of access an admin has. Supervisors can manage campaigns and use call monitor to join calls. This user type typically maps to sales or support managers who need some overview of their agents, but not to the level of account configuration.

Analysts

The analyst user type is reserved for employees whose primary role is data forecasting or analysis. Analysts primarily have access to viewing analytics data and statistics within the dashboard.

Agents

Agents have limited access privileges in terms of viewing or changing global data within the company account. They are able to add, edit, and remove contacts, as well as participate in active campaigns they have been assigned to.
