What's Guest Access?

Guest Access is a feature in SaaS productivity tools that allows you to invite external collaborators or clients to view or participate in specific projects or tasks without needing full user accounts. This feature is designed to facilitate collaboration while maintaining control over who can access your workspaces.

Why it's important

Working with people outside your organization, such as clients, contractors, or partners, is common in today's collaborative and often remote work environment. Guest Access is crucial because it allows you to share necessary information and collaborate effectively without compromising the security of your internal systems. By providing limited access, you can ensure that sensitive information remains protected while still engaging with external parties.

How Guest Access works

With Guest Access, you can invite external users to specific projects or tasks. Depending on the permissions you set, these guests can view, comment on, or even edit content. This flexibility allows you to tailor the level of access to suit the needs of each collaboration, ensuring that guests have the information they need without overwhelming them with unnecessary details.

What you gain with Guest Access

  • Enhanced Collaboration: By allowing external parties to access your projects, you can work more closely and efficiently with clients and partners.
  • Security and Control: You maintain control over what guests can see and do, ensuring that your internal data remains secure.
  • Flexibility: You can adjust permissions based on the needs of each project, providing the right level of access for each guest.
  • Improved Client Relationships: By involving clients directly in projects, you can foster better communication and understanding, leading to stronger relationships and better outcomes.
