1. From your administrative dashboard, quickly add an app to your org and assign it to users. Bitium offers a pre-integrated application catalog that includes over 3,000 apps.
2. You can also quickly off-board employees. Groups are effective ways for companies to manage teams, projects, job functions and clients. Using Bitium, an admin can assign various apps to a group in order to make the on-boarding process more efficient, or to organize applications based on project or client. For example, a “sales” group can be created with all the applications that team members working on sales need. New hires added to this group gain access to all of the group’s shared applications, without having to request passwords or refer to a shared password document (which is insecure and hard to track). This makes the on-boarding process simple and efficient. When it comes to off-boarding, you can easily remove someone from the shared accounts with the click of a button. This mitigates the risk of having a former employee with access to your company’s application.
