What
Nobi uses three user roles: User, Manager, and Technician. Each role has its own profile and set of access rights. This way, every staff member sees only what they need to work effectively. Nothing more, nothing less.
Why
Not everyone needs full access. That’s why Nobi introduced clearly defined roles.
This structure keeps sensitive data safe and supports each team member in doing their job, without distractions or risks. It simplifies the app experience and protects privacy at the same time.
By assigning the right roles, you help your team work faster, smarter, and safer.
Role breakdown
Each role is designed for a specific purpose. Choose wisely:
Assign User to care staff who handle daily follow-up. Users can manage daily care tasks, see escalation information, but can’t change settings.
Assign Manager to team leads who configure and oversee settings including escalation procedures. Managers can create, configure, and edit anything in the app.
Assign Technician to maintenance staff who need technical access only. Technicians can install, replace, or factory reset light—without seeing any resident data.
