About users
Users in Datto RMM are individuals with a user account. On the Users page, you can create new user accounts, and view and manage existing ones.
NOTE The New UI is automatically set as the default interface for users that are created in the New UI.

When editing a component's component level, a user can only select a component level that is available to them based on their component level in their user settings. |
