Why Device Limiting?
With organizations handling increasingly sensitive data, security and user access control are more critical than ever.
In addition to our existing security features:
Multi-factor authentication
Google reCAPTCHA
ISO 27001 Certification
UK G-Cloud Authorization
…we’ve now added Device Limiting to further safeguard your account.
What Is Device Limiting?
Each user in Array is now restricted to logging in from no more than two devices at any one time. This means:
No shared logins across unlimited devices
Fewer points of vulnerability
Better control over individual access and user actions
Unlike platforms that allow only one device, Array allows two—striking the right balance between security and flexibility.
Example: A user can collect data on a mobile tablet in the field, and simultaneously manage or edit submissions on a laptop in the office.
This setup ensures your data remains secure and verifiable, even in multi-device workflows.
Managing Permissions Alongside Device Limits
To make the most of Device Limiting, it’s important to ensure users have the appropriate permission levels.
Array offers four primary user roles:
Permission Level | Access Overview |
Account Admin | Full access to all settings, data, forms, and users |
Field Manager | Manages teams, forms, and submissions within assigned folders |
Operator | Completes forms and views assigned reports |
Data Entry User | Submits forms only, with limited viewing rights |
