"Private" devices are mostly used for private/assigned parking spaces or individual usage. Think of it as a locked device that only specific people can turn On/Off.
Plugzio users who are not specifically granted access to a "Private" device will be denied access when trying to activate the device.
Benefits Of "Private" Devices:
Management can control/monitor the usage of a specific device that needs to be used for a specific purpose like an outlet in the lobby that should only be used by the cleaning crew and not anyone else.
Management can guarantee the availability of a device to a certain user by making it only accessible to that specific person.
Here is an example of a "Private" outlet on the management dashboard. In this case, the device is only available to 3 users and the rate (i.e. "Payment Plan") is specifically defined for each of those users.
What Happens If An Unauthorized User Tries To Access a "Private" Device?
The user will be denied access.
