Hello all!  

I’m putting together a guide for new brand admins.  In the user set up page, there is a drop down with a TON of user types in it.  The Qualtrics webpage on users and user types doesn’t cover or describe them all that I see.  Has anyone ever seen or know of a full list of all user types available and what they are meant to do?  I know some are self-explanatory, but some really aren’t.

The list is indeed super confusing and too extensive, and I wish we could hide it. To avoid confusion, it’s best practice to just create your own company-specific user types with the access required for each, and use those for your users.

@mraper70 Don’t use the default list, create your own. The list is a Qualtrics Global Type (i.e., they are built into the platform) and it’s varies from free account, education, EX, Govt/NonProfit, CX….It’s messy and more like for users of the feature/product.

@InessaG , we do plan to create their own, but I wanted to be able to explain what the existing ones are so they can decide if any pre-existing ones would work.  I just don’t want them to see it and not have a way to explain them!
