Managing users in TeamViewer just became a whole lot simpler. With the redesigned TeamViewer experience, admins now have smarter tools to organize users, assign permissions, and keep everything under control, even as teams grow or change. Whether you’re onboarding new employees or re-structuring your IT setup, user management is now much more intuitive.
Here’s what’s new and why it matters.
User groups: Manage people, not individuals
Instead of assigning permissions user by user, you can now organize your users into User Groups.
Think of user groups as smart containers. You define permissions once—for the group—and anyone added to that group automatically gets those rights.
This saves time, keeps things consistent, and makes managing teams much easier.

User roles: Control who can do what
Need more fine-grained control? That’s where User roles come in.
You can assign specific roles to users (like Admin, Manager, or End user), each with their own set of permissions. This helps ensure the right people have the right level of access—no more, no less.
No more guesswork; just clear, role-based access control.
Curious how roles work? Here’s a handy KB article explaining everything.
Smooth onboarding and offboarding with smart user and device group logic
Let’s face it—managing access when employees join or leave the company can be stressful. But not anymore.
In the new TeamViewer, user groups and device groups work together. That means when someone joins your company, you simply add them to a user group, and they instantly get access to all device groups that group is allowed to manage.
And when someone leaves? Just remove them from the group. Done.
No more manually updating every permission. No more errors. Just a smoother, smarter way to manage users.
