About customers, partners, and provisioning
The terms customer, partner, and provisioning all have specific meanings in the context of Arctera Insight Archiving:
Provisioning refers to the creation of new instances of email archives, and the configuration of primary and secondary services in Arctera Insight Archiving. Provisioning also encompasses providing all of the necessary archive software and access permissions.
A customer is a company that receives an Arctera Insight Archiving archive and archive services for its own use.
A customer can access the Archive Administration tab in the Arctera Insight Management Console, from where it can manage its own users and services, and generate reports.
A partner resells Arctera Insight Archiving services, and has the rights to manage customer archives created under the partner group on behalf of customers. A partner may or may not also be a customer. A child partner resells archive services, and is managed by its parent partner. A partner customer is the customer of a child partner.
A partner cannot create child partners or customers under its own instance, and it cannot add or remove services. These actions require an order to be placed through Arctera.
A partner or child partner can access the following tabs of the Arctera Insight Management Console, subject to the services it is licensed for.
