Overview

This is a quick overview of all the major elements in the mutexer platform. In for each account created there are four major entities environments, users, teams and projects.

To begin you will only need to do two steps.

1. Create an account and environment via the signup flow
2. Add your first project to the environment

Environments

Environments are a collections of projects, users and teams.

You can create and be invited to multiple environments. Nothing is shared between environments including billing.

INFO

Each environment has one billing tier for all devices that are contained within it. For example if the selected plan is "Starter" then every device added will be at the starter plan price. It is not possible to mix tiers within one environment.

Use-case of multiple environments

There are use-cases where you may need multiple environments. Some examples below.

Separate users

• Multiple Companies: One account linking multiple companies
• Multiple User groups: One company needing to restrict access between separate departments

Separate billing

• Multiple Companies: One account linking multiple companies.
• Multiple Plans: Different plan tiers for device groups.

Adding an Environment

There are two ways an Environment is added.

• Initial Signup: Upon initial signup you are required to create an environment.
• Global Dropdown: The dropdown in the top right-hand of the global navigation allows both switching and creation of additional Environments.

The User that created the Environment will be the sole owner of that Environment.

WARNING
