How licensing affects your Showpad experience
Depending on which Showpad Content or Coach package you have, you will see different navigation options, both in the Online Platform and the Web app. This breakdown is to help differentiate what navigation you will see according to what package and licenses you have. It may also be helpful to read on about what your users will see, depending on the license they have. To keep the platform intuitive and easy to use, you will only see options that you have access to, as an admin or user.
Note: When reading through the various licensing scenarios that are feasible with the integrated Showpad platform, remember that it is possible to have a mix of Coach and Content licenses. In that case, your users will see different options from one another.
