A teammate can sign in to the dashboard with their own email address and use only the VPSs you choose. They never need your sign-in code. Billing and the account stay with you.

Step 1: Add Your Teammate

  1. Sign in to your dashboard and click Members in the sidebar. On a phone, tap More, then Members.
  2. Under Add member, type your teammate's email address.
  3. Keep the role on Member. A Member uses only the VPSs you give them in Step 2.
  4. Click Invite. The page shows Member added, and your teammate is in the Members list.

If no QuantVPS account uses that email, the dashboard makes one for it. Your teammate does not buy anything. Tell your teammate that you added them, and which email you used.

Choose Admin only for a person who must add or remove members. You cannot give a VPS to an Admin in Step 2: the list shows Members only.

Step 2: Give Access to a VPS

  1. Click Overview in the sidebar.
  2. Find the VPS and click Manage Access.
  3. Under Available Users, tick your teammate's email, then click Add on the same line. To add every Member at once, click Add All, then Confirm.
  4. Your teammate now shows under Users With Access.

Do this for each VPS your teammate needs. Only the account holder can give or remove access: the person with the Owner tag on the Members page.

Step 3: Your Teammate Signs In

  1. Your teammate goes to quantvps.com/login and types the email you added. We send a 6-digit code to that email. See How to Sign In to Your QuantVPS Dashboard.
  2. If the VPS does not show, your teammate opens the account menu at the top of the dashboard (on a phone, the menu). Under Switch workspace, they choose your team's name.
  3. Overview then shows the VPSs you gave them.

What a Teammate Can Do

  • See the VPSs you gave them, with their connection details. The details include the VPS password. They connect with Remote Desktop as you do.
  • Use the controls of those VPSs, for example restart, power off, reinstall and backups. A reinstall erases the VPS. Give access only to people you trust.

What Stays With You

  • Billing, Referrals and Deploy New Server. A teammate does not see them.
  • Members and access. A teammate cannot add members or give access to a VPS.
  • Locking Remote Desktop to your addresses, and closing ports, in Detect+. Only the account holder can do that.

Two People on One VPS at the Same Time

Remote Desktop on a VPS takes one person at a time. When a second person connects with the same user, the first person is disconnected. For two people at once, one connects with Remote Desktop and the other with Parsec. See How to Connect to Your QuantVPS Using Parsec.

Remove Access

  • From one VPS: on Overview, click Manage Access on the VPS, then Remove beside your teammate's email.
  • From the team: on Members, click the bin icon on your teammate's line, then Remove. They lose access to every VPS of the team.

Your teammate could see the VPS password. After you remove them, change the password in Windows: see How to Change Your VPS Password. The dashboard keeps showing the first password, so keep the new one in a password manager.
