User Management

This article guides Kibu Admins on user management, explaining what “Members” and “Admins” are, and the concept of Staff Groups.

What are Users?

In Kibu, a user is a human being who is either receiving or providing services. A user is classified as a Member or an Admin:

  • A Member is an individual receiving services from your organization.

  • An Admin is any employee in your organization that intends to log into Kibu. Admins have varying roles within the platform:

    • Super Admin: A Super Admin creates the organization and has exclusive rights to billing. They have access to all features, plus the ability to manage users and organization settings. If you need multiple admins to control billing, please contact support@kibuhq.com.

    • Admin: An Admin has all the same permissions as a Super Admin but without billing controls.

    • Supervisor: A Supervisor has access to see all users and features but cannot invite users or control organization settings.

    • Staff: A Staff role has access to all of Kibu’s features with restrictions. They can take notes, attendance, and update information on Members whom they’ve been given access to in Staff Groups.

    • Instructor: An Instructor is only able to create and host live classes within their organization. They do not have access to any other data or controls.

    • IT : An IT role allows an admin to control organization configuration settings but does not have any access to Member data.

Tip: The majority of your team will likely have the “Staff” role. Those who have the added responsibility of managing “behind-the-scenes” activities, like user management, billing, and settings, should be granted the “Admin” role.

User Management FAQ

Does the number of Members and Admins affect my billing?

No. Kibu customers are typically charged on the amount of member and admin seats purchased. The Super Admin is responsible for purchasing and managing seats. Adding and removing users from the Settings page has no impact on seat count, thus, it does not affect your billing.

What will happen if I remove a Member or Admin that has data associated with them?

Kibu does not permanently delete any data about a member or admin- except upon explicit request. If you wish for Kibu to permanently remove data from our database, reach out to us at support@kibuhq.com.
