Solved: How do people manage access to multiple client Wor... - Page 2

Hello,

I manage multiple Workspace accounts for my clients. It gets tricky when they have 2FA turned on as I often need to wait on them to send me codes in order to log in. And more often than not it doesn't happen quickly enough and the page times out.

It would be great if there was a "Manager" type role that could be assigned to a user and that didn't require that user to be a paying subscriber. I don't need an email account in each client's Workspace or permissions to use the Google Drive etc, I just need access to manage it for them. They aren't always savvy enough to know how to temporarily disable 2FA so I can log in.

I've had this conundrum for a few years now. How do other people manage this?

Multiple options, two of which come to mind:

1.) Become a Google partner. If you have multiple clients, this might be a good option for you. You resell Workspace to your customers, and you get a central management console from which you can access the admin consoles of your clients. Without needing an account in their Workspace.

2.) Check out Google's Cloud Identity Free edition. A very simplified explanation: It's basically user accounts on Google Cloud that you can use to access Google Workspace services, including admin console of Workspace. It's free. So you don't need a paid license in your clients' workspace.
