2.2.1 Types of users

A Digizuite™ DAM system has its own database of users that is created by the Digizuite™ DAM Center's administrators. Each user is set up with a username, a password and role-based access rights.

There are 5 main types of users within the Media Manager 5: Guest, Light User, Content Creator, Administrator and Super Administrator. These users are given a number of rights/roles by default, but the roles can be removed or added by the Administrator in the DAM Center's "System tools". New users with a customized set of roles can also be created.

More information concerning roles can be found here.

Guest
