Here’s what you should know about Multi-tier sharing

Imagine that a new client is assigned to collaborate with the marketing team in your company. The client sends you his password (hopefully, not in plain text!).

Then you share it with the marketing director.

Then with a few PR people.

Then with a few designers.

Then… Where was I?

To manage these processes manually(and to make sure you send the right passwords to right people) every time, well, that can be more than exhausting. And time consuming, not to mention.

Luckily, the solution for this annoying, productivity-killing part of everyday work,  exists. And we’re here to present you the Multi-tier sharing.

What is Multi- tier sharing ?

In short, it’s a feature that makes the password sharing process in teams and organizations quick, easy and trackable. Every time you securely share a password within a password manager, you can select the permission that you give for a person you share it with. You can choose among different levels of access a person gets:

• Only to view a password,
• To edit it;
• Edit and share it with others, a.k.a. enable Multi-tier sharing.

Why is it beneficial to you?

No matter if you work as a freelancer and you share passwords only with clients, or you work in a bigger team/organization and share passwords with both clients and your team members, multi-tier sharing lets you share passwords with many people, but still maintain a full control over data.

Use case example

Let’s provide a solution to the aforementioned marketing team.

You receive a password from your client. You share the password with the marketing director by assigning him/her permission to “edit and share”. Your job is done here.

Now, the marketing director delegates that password to other team members. Later they share it with anyone else needed.

Best part? You still see every person it was shared with. And each change as well!

Project finished? You can unshare a password within a few clicks.

The control is in your hands.

To sum up, multi-tier sharing is a time-saving feature that lets you share passwords with a group of people quickly and easily, still keeping full control over your sensitive data.
