With Cerby, you have a secure way to save additional information about your accounts.
The Account Notes feature enables you to add information to your account data, making it visible to other users with shared access to the account. Instead of adding an individual secret, you can use the Notes field to save text-based information such as the following:
Expiration dates for your licenses
The point of contact for more information about licenses
The tenant to which the account or license belongs
Reminders
Only users with the Account Owner role on an account can add and edit a note, and both Account Owners and Account Collaborators can view the note of a shared account.
Account notes can be imported to Cerby from your password notes in LastPass. For more information, read the How to use the Password Manager Importer article.
The Account Notes feature is available for any account and user within a Cerby workspace. The Notes field is accessible through the account details page using the Cerby web app.
