What are Teams and How Are Teams Managed?

Teams are groups of Users you create, based on your Organization's needs. For example, you could have a Sales Team, a Research Team, and a Legal Team.

Creating Teams in Loopio allows you to assign groups of Users to answer or review Project Entries, ensuring the best person takes action even when it may be unclear who should be responsible. If you’re unsure of who would be able to take the lead on a Section or Project Entry, consider assigning a Team to complete them.

You can create and edit Teams in the Admin Panel from Admin > Teams.
