admin user restrictions

So i have this scenario, I have another department who needs to use my PRTG implementation. But, the problem is, they are part of our core NOC so do not want us to see any of their sensors/settings, and vice versa. But the PRTG administrator account is with me, is there any way i can give them a blind group with a sensor restriction?

Yes we have thought of them getting a standalone license, but since we are moving to an enterprise license it would not be practical to maintain two licenses for us

Hello,

as of now, a PRTG admin always sees everything in PRTG. The highest user account which is not an admin would be a write-user which is given full access on certain branches in the device tree.

Those users can add, edit and delete objects and even grant others the access right to such objects (if they should not be able to do that, the "write" access level would be the proper one.)

However, they cannot enter the setup of PRTG, only admin users can do that.
