Hippo Video provides you with a set of default profiles. With this, you can manage user profiles such as setting up permissions to manage folders, videos, documents, sales pages, campaigns, scripts (teleprompter), reports, etc. Users associated with the profile will get access to all the features. You also have an option to create a custom profile by cloning the default profiles.
Default Profiles:
Standard Admin - Access to all the features inclusive of Branding, Subscriptions, and User Management.
Standard User - By default, the Branding, Subscriptions, and User Management features are not accessible. Other features are available based on the permissions set by Admin.
Custom Profile - Admins can create a custom profile, set permissions, and assign it to the users based on their roles to prevent them from accessing the other options.
Here's a quick demo video on how to manage user profiles and permissions:
