About This Feature
Overview
Enterprise Administrator helps organizations add administrators, assign management permissions, and separate responsibilities by role inside the enterprise admin console. It is suitable for teams that need multiple people to manage contacts, security, documents, storage space, and apps.
Core capabilities include:
- Add administrators: grant admin roles to selected members.
- Assign or remove permissions: select permission modules and adjust or remove admin roles later.
This feature helps reduce the pressure of single-person administration and supports role-based management across different business responsibilities.

| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports adding administrators in the enterprise admin console, selecting members, and assigning management permissions for enterprise administration. | Microsoft 365 provides administrator roles that can be assigned to users so they can complete specific admin tasks in Microsoft admin centers. | Google Workspace supports predefined admin roles and also supports custom roles and privileges for delegated administration. | Notion supports workspace owners, membership administration, guests, and role-based workspace management. | Adobe Admin Console supports different administrator roles for managing users, products, and support-related tasks. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the workflow stays inside one enterprise admin console for member-based role assignment; Distinct: permission assignment is organized around common enterprise management modules. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft 365 uses a broader platform-level role system with many role types and separate admin-center paths. | Compared with WPS: Google Workspace offers predefined and custom roles for deeper delegated administration, but setup can involve more role planning. | Compared with WPS: Notion focuses more on workspace collaboration roles and member access than on module-based enterprise admin authorization. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses more on product, license, and organization administration in Admin Console scenarios. |

Overall Conclusion: WPS is a practical fit when an organization wants to assign admin responsibilities directly to members in one unified console and adjust permissions by module during daily operations. Organizations that need a broader cross-service role framework may prefer the role systems provided by their existing platform.
